Recently, Esha Gupta & Honey Singh's new song ‘Maniac’ was released, and it has been receiving immense love from the audience. Within just 4 days, the song garnered over 35 million views on YouTube. In a recent interview, Esha Gupta opened up about her experience working on this song and collaborating with Honey Singh. Here's what she had to say:

What is the secret behind your fitness? You always look so fit.

The secret to my fitness is that I take very good care of myself. I do a lot of things to maintain my health. My day begins with asking myself what I can do today to keep my body fit, both externally and internally. Since last year, my goal has been that when I meet anyone after 2025, they’ll say, “Esha is so fit.” I recently met a foreign footballer who is 37, but he has maintained his body so well. I draw a lot of inspiration from him to stay fit.

Your song with Honey Singh, 'Maniac', is trending on YouTube and has created a buzz. What do you think about it?

All the credit for this song goes to Honey Singh. Whether you call it his comeback or not, he has always been a major figure in the industry for me. His songs have always had something unique, and he proved that again with this track. No one could have imagined that this song would feature Bhojpuri, alongside English lyrics. Perhaps that's why Honey Singh is called the King of Pop.

How do you feel about Honey Singh’s new avatar?

Esha Gupta: Honey Singh is as wonderful a person on the inside as he is on the outside. His personality and his music reflect that. His music is powerful, and even when he says just one or two lines, they have an impact.

When Honey Singh approached you for this song, what was going through your mind?

Whenever we used to party, Honey Singh’s songs would play. I’ve been a fan since he performed at my brother Karan Gupta ’s wedding, and from that moment, I knew I wanted to work with him. When this song came to me, and I was told that it needed to be shot in just two days, I agreed immediately because it was with Honey Singh. The song has Bhojpuri words, and if you look at the choreography and our look, everything is thanks to the production house. Our choreographers did a fantastic job, and they managed to shoot the entire song in just two days. I’ll also tell you this: I was even practicing the hook step of the song while sleeping!

You had a lot of fun while shooting the song, and even drove cars in it. Can you tell us more about your experience while shooting this?

The best part of shooting this song was how work and fun blended together. Honey Singh brought such a great vibe to the set. He’s really chill when he works, even though we knew the deadlines. Despite that, we were able to finish our work on time, while still having fun in a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere.

The song features a mix of Bhojpuri, Punjabi, and English. What’s your take on this unique blend?

I think it’s a super cool concept to mix Bhojpuri, Punjabi, and English in a single song. If you go international, you'll see many concepts where multiple languages are used. We never thought something like this would happen in India, but Honey Singh has made it happen. His recent concept was a total blast.

Esha Gupta’s Film Career

Can you tell us about your upcoming projects? How many more songs can we expect from you?

You’ll have to wait a little for that, but yes, I can tell you that I have a few more songs coming this year.
