Raftaar reacts to MC Stan’s participation in Bigg Boss
When asked what Raftaar perceive when MC Stan join reality shows such as Bigg Boss to outreach more audiences, to this he said, “Why not? I’m saying, why not 100%? Look, if you have a big sweet shop in your neighbourhood, how will people from another city know about it?”

He added that rappers such as himself are building a bridge for the upcoming ones. He said, “People from other cities could come and enjoy it, making it an even bigger shop. But how will the word get out from that neighbourhood? It’s word of mouth. How will that happen? Either you set up a stall at a fair in their city—this is our stall; wherever we find a spot, we set up a tent. Now, what’s the role of the rapper sitting here talking with you? This is what we’re doing; we’re building a bridge.”
