Qazi Touqeer discusses his friendship with singer Arijit Singh and says Arijit has never publicly detailed his early hardships, even after reaching fame. The remarks are tied to recent recollections Qazi shares around their time on the reality show Fame Gurukul and their continued public connection amid Arijit’s presence and support for Qazi.
Across coverage, outlets describe how Qazi and Arijit first meet while competing as teenagers on Fame Gurukul, and they emphasize Qazi’s admiration for Arijit’s dedication and authenticity. Times of India adds that Arijit’s support for Qazi in Bigg Boss 20 has drawn additional attention, including Qazi performing a song as a tribute.
NDTV’s framing is more limited, focusing on why Qazi says he will not reveal Arijit’s early struggles. The Free Press Journal goes further with a video-led account, stressing Qazi’s claim that Arijit does not talk about being “sad” or “on the street,” and that he keeps such personal details private. Overall, the reports broadly align on the core narrative: shared early beginnings, close friendship, and Qazi’s decision to keep Arijit’s struggles undisclosed.
