From a schoolboy to rapping with Badshah, where is Sahdev Dirdo now after ‘Bachpan Ka Pyar’?
The viral sensation of the ‘Bachpan Ka Pyar’ kid has left people wondering where Sahdev Dirdo, the schoolboy turned rapper, is now.
In a matter of years, Dirdo’s life took a drastic turn after his endearing video singing the ‘Bachpan Ka Pyar’ song at school captured the hearts of millions. By 2021, he found himself collaborating with the renowned artist Badshah in a rap video, showcasing his incredible journey from being an unknown schoolboy to a rising star. The sudden fame even led him to meet high-profile personalities like the Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh, Bhupesh Baghel, who he serenaded with the viral song. So where is this young sensation today?
According to reports, Dirdo’s passion for singing was ignited when his teacher asked him to perform the song that catapulted him into the limelight. Hailing from Chhattisgarh, Dirdo’s humble beginnings and initial lack of access to gadgets like phones or TVs did not deter his talent from shining through. After the craze around his performance subsided, the burning question arises: what has become of the ‘Bachpan Ka Pyar’ kid?
In a recent video shared by YouTuber Nishu Tiwari, we catch a glimpse of Dirdo’s current whereabouts. The now fully grown Dirdo resides in Sukma, Chhattisgarh. Fondly recalling his time with Badshah, Dirdo hints at the singer’s generous gesture towards his father. Expressing his admiration for Indian rappers like Badshah, KRSNA, and Raftaar, Dirdo remains hopeful for a triumphant return to the spotlight after facing setbacks like managerial changes and an unfortunate accident. Drawing inspiration from successful artists like “Honey Singh,” Dirdo aspires to make a grand comeback akin to his musical idols.
Despite the whirlwind of fame and challenges, Dirdo remains grateful for the 2019 viral phenomenon that elevated his status from obscurity to stardom. Acknowledging that ‘Bachpan Ka Pyar’ is not his original creation, as it was written and composed by Gujarati singer Kamlesh Barot in 2018 under the title ‘Sonu Meri Darling,’ Dirdo credits the song for opening doors he never thought possible. Even to this day, fans approach him for selfies, a testament to the enduring impact his performance had on people worldwide.
The story of Sahdev Dirdo serves as a poignant reminder of the transformative power of social media and the music industry, showcasing a heartwarming journey from a schoolboy crooning his heart out to a budding artist on the verge of a triumphant comeback. As Dirdo continues to navigate the highs and lows of fame, his resilient spirit and unwavering passion for music promise a bright future filled with endless possibilities.
