Badshah makes luxury history with Rs. 18 crore Rolex ‘Barbie’ Daytona, becomes first Indian owner 18 : Bollywood News

Rapper Badshah is no stranger to headline-making moments, but his latest appearance on Indian Idol Season 15 sparked a different kind of buzz. Eagle-eyed viewers spotted the hitmaker wearing one of the rarest watches in the world — the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ‘Barbie’, instantly setting luxury and fashion circles abuzz. With this acquisition, Badshah has reportedly become the first Indian to own the ultra-exclusive timepiece.

Badshah makes luxury history with Rs. 18 crore Rolex ‘Barbie’ Daytona, becomes first Indian ownerThe Rolex ‘Barbie’ Daytona is considered a grail among elite collectors worldwide. Featuring a pink sapphire bezel paired with diamond hour markers, the watch is both flamboyant and fiercely exclusive. Estimated to be valued at around Rs. 18 crore, the Daytona “Barbie” is not available through conventional retail channels and is reserved strictly for Rolex’s most privileged clientele.

Badshah’s choice of watch fits seamlessly with his larger-than-life persona. Known for blending hip-hop culture with high fashion, the rapper has often used style as an extension of his identity — bold, unapologetic, and global. Wearing the watch on a mainstream platform like Indian Idol only amplified its impact, turning a routine TV appearance into a luxury fashion moment.

Beyond the watch flex, Badshah’s recent years have marked a significant evolution in his career. Musically, he has continued to dominate charts with his independent EP ‘Fitoor’ (2025) and the star-studded album Ek Tha Raja (2024). His presence on reality television remains strong, with his judging stint on Indian Idol Season 15 and his ongoing role on MTV Hustle, keeping him closely connected to younger audiences.

On the global stage, Badshah has quietly built milestones that few Indian artists have achieved. From becoming the first Indian rapper to headline London’s O2 Arena, to participating in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game 2026, and headlining the T20 World Cup opening ceremony, his reach has steadily expanded beyond borders.

The Rolex “Barbie” Daytona may be the centrepiece of the moment, but it ultimately reflects a larger narrative — Badshah’s journey from hitmaker to global cultural figure, where fashion, fame, and ambition move in sync.
