Whenever the name of Bhojpuri cinema comes up, there is definitely mention of Pawan Singh and Khesari Lal. Khesari Lal Yadav is not called a trending star and Pawan Singh is called a power star for no reason. The songs of both always remain in the top 10 in terms of trending on YouTube. Both the stars do not like to talk about each other much, but Khesari Lal did so in a podcast.
Khesari Lal praised Pawan Singh in Sudhanshu Mishra's podcast. He also called Pawan Singh a good artist, but still he says that he will remain against him.
In the podcast, Khesari Lal was asked, 'There is a lot of talk on social media about Pawan Singh and you. So what would you like to say on this?' On this Khesari Lal said, 'He is much senior than me. Be it Manoj Bhaiya, Dinesh Bhaiya or Ravi Bhaiya… all these people, I feel that I am much younger than these people. I am younger than Dinesh bhaiya and also younger than Pawan bhaiya. Because Pawan Bhaiya had entered films in 2007 or 2005 and he had been singing long before that.
Khesari Lal further said, 'He is a very amazing singer, I am his fan and the entire Bhojpuri society is his fan. I personally like his voice very much, but personally I am his competitor, so I have to be against him. I will have to accept this and I can never leave him as a competitor…Acceptance has become a different subject and because I am speaking on a channel and I am praising a competitor, then I am not praising the competitor, but the Bhojpuri language. Praising Gaurav. Bhojpuri cinema is not only from Khesari Lal, but also from big people, be it our Bhikhari Thakur ji, Mahendra Misir ji, be it our Sharda Sinha ji.
