These images of the newlyweds were posted online by Isha's mother, Poonam Rikhi, on March 24. Although the couple has not yet officially confirmed their marriage, social media is rife with speculation regarding the singer's private life.
Who is Isha Rikhi?

During an interview with Punjab 2000, she revealed that acting was not her initial interest before joining the industry.

I was offered an opportunity in acting, and now I find this field very intriguing.'
Among her other movies are Happy Go Lucky, What the Jatt!!, and Desi Munde. Isha entered Bollywood with the movie Nawabzaade, featuring Raghav Juyal and Punit Pathak. Varun Dhawan, Shraddha Kapoor, and Badshah made special appearances in this film.

They have a daughter, Jessemy Grace Masih Singh, who was born in January 2017. In a 2018 interview with HT, Badshah mentioned that he wasn't particularly fond of children before his daughter was born.
