After Kartik Aaryan, FWICE Sends Letter To Badshah Over His Upcoming Show Being Allegedly Sponsored By Pakistanis

On Wednesday, August 13, 2025, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) sent a letter to singer and rapper Badshah about his upcoming show, which is allegedly sponsored by a company owned and operated by Pakistani nationals. Titled 'Badshah's Un-Finished Tour', the show is going to take place in Dallas on September 19, 2025.

FWICE's letter to Badshah reads, "Dear Mr. Badshah, It has come to our attention that you are scheduled to perform in an upcoming event Badshah Un-Finished Tour at the Curtis Culwell Centre in Dallas, USA, on the 19th of Sept. 2025 which is reportedly being sponsored by 3Sixty Shows, a company owned and operated by Pakistani nationals."

The letter further read, "As you are aware, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), in alignment with the directives issued by the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Government of India, has clearly instructed all artists, performers, and technicians in the Indian entertainment industry to refrain from engaging in any professional collaborations or performances with Pakistani nationals or organizations connected to Pakistan. These measures are in place considering the continuing acts of terrorism and hostile activities directed against India from across the border."

FWICE Asks For Clarification From Badshah

The Federation of Western India Cine Employees has asked for a clarification from the rapper. The letter further reads, "In light of this, we request your immediate clarification regarding your association with this event and the said organizers. We trust that as a respected Indian artist, you will uphold the sentiments of the nation and the directives issued by FWICE and the Government of India. Your prompt response will be appreciated so that we may take the necessary steps in accordance with our regulations."
