Rapper and hip-hop musician Naezy, whose real name is Naved Shaikh, revealed on the reality show ‘Bigg Boss OTT 3’ that he was arrested under false allegations and spent a year in prison during the filming of ‘Gully Boy’, the film which was inspired by his life. 

Naezy shared, "There was a movie being made about me and I was going to be very powerful. That is when I disappeared from the scene. No posts on Instagram, and no releases on YouTube. Everyone wondered where I was. The film (Gully Boy) had just begun filming at that time. I was imprisoned because some people in the system got jealous and they wanted to bother me and wanted something from me.”
