Naezy's Bigg Boss OTT 3 Journey

Naezy, whose real name is Naved Shaikh, entered the Bigg Boss OTT 3 house this season and quickly became a fan favorite. His genuine and endearing personality, combined with his humorous antics, have won hearts across the nation. In the house, Naezy has formed friendships with fellow contestants like Ranvir Shorey, Adnaan Shaikh, and Armaan Malik, often engaging in light-hearted pranks. His presence on the show has significantly boosted his popularity, likely adding to his growing net worth.

From Humble Beginnings to Stardom

Born on August 10, 1993, in Kurla, Mumbai, Naezy grew up in Ram Bachan Chawl with his mother, Farhin Raza, while his father, Shahid Raza, worked abroad. His early life was marked by struggles, including encounters with the law, which eventually led him to channel his experiences into music.

Naezy pursued his T.Y.BSC at Guru Nanak Khalsa College in Matunga, where he met Neykhil Naik, also known as NCube. Together, they formed a collective called The Schizophrenics. His breakthrough came in 2014 with the viral video "Aafat," which laid the foundation for his career. The song "Mere Gully Mein," featuring Divine, catapulted both artists into mainstream success and inspired Zoya Akhtar’s 2019 film Gully Boy, where Ranveer Singh portrayed a character inspired by Naezy.

In addition to his music career, Naezy's life was documented in the film Bombay 70, directed by Disha Rindani. The short film, which won the Best Short Film award at the MAMI Mumbai Film Festival, offered a glimpse into Naezy’s journey and struggles. He later collaborated with Divine and American rapper Nas on the track "NY se Mumbai" and made his Bollywood debut with "Birju" from the film Hey Bro (2015).

Musical Impact and Career Resurgence

Naezy is known for his “conscious hip-hop” style, addressing socio-political issues and aiming to raise awareness among the youth. His tracks, such as "Haq Hai," "Tragedy Mein Comedy," and "Azaad Hu Mein," reflect his commitment to addressing the struggles of the common man.

In 2018, amidst growing media scrutiny and family concerns, Naezy considered stepping away from the underground rap scene. However, his passion for rap led him to make a comeback in 2019 with the single "Aafat Wapas," shot by Happy Mandal.

Naezy's Net Worth

Naezy’s net worth has seen a significant increase, currently estimated at approximately INR 7 crore. He enjoys a strong social media presence with 896K subscribers on YouTube and 969K followers on Instagram.

Out of 17 contestants, the top 5 housemates who have made it to the finale of Bigg Boss OTT 3 are Ranvir Shorey, Sai Ketan Rao, Naezy, Sana Makbul, and Kritika Malik. Lovekesh Kataria and Armaan Malik were the final two eliminations before the grand finale. This season’s finale will be streamed on August 2, 2024, starting at 9 pm. For the first time, the grand finale will air on a Friday instead of the usual Sunday. It will be exciting to see who emerges as the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 3.
