My Take
Baba Sehgal fascinates me as a genuine pioneer. Born in Lucknow and widely credited as India's first rapper, he started rhyming when there was no path to follow, and that takes real audacity. Singer, composer, actor, working across several languages, he refuses to be boxed in, and I respect that restless reach. His turn on Bigg Boss hints at a warm, crowd-pleasing spirit who never takes himself too seriously. People who do something first usually get laughed at, but they clear the trail for everyone after them. For that alone, Sehgal earns my lasting admiration.
