Songs like 'Dil Chori Sadda Ho Gaya' became hits but fans weren't too happy because they wanted to see Yo Yo Honey Singh in the video. They are the ones who motivated me to become the old Honey Singh again, which is why I put in so much effort towards fitness. Honey Singh 3.0 is a blend of new school and old school. I hope that everyone loves this version and support and promote it."
