|} Hardavinder Singh Sandhu (born on September 6, 1986), known as Harrdy Sandhu, is a popular Indian singer and actor. He sings in both Punjabi and Hindi films. Before becoming a star, he was a cricketer. Harrdy Sandhu became famous with his songs Soch (2013) and Joker (2014). He also started acting in movies in 2014.

Early Life and Career

From Cricket to Music

Harrdy Sandhu played cricket for more than ten years as a fast bowler. Sadly, he got a serious elbow injury in 2007. This injury meant he could no longer play cricket. After that, he decided to try singing. He took singing lessons for about 18 months.

His first album was "This is Harrdy Sandhu" in 2011. He released a music video for the song "Tequilla Shot" from this album. However, the album and song did not become very popular. Harrdy felt disappointed and thought about giving up singing.

Finding Success

But then, he met a lyricist named Jaani and a music director named B Praak. Together, they created the song "Soch," which came out in 2013. This song became a big hit!

Harrdy Sandhu is married to Zenith Sandhu. She even appeared in his music video for the song "Backbone."

Acting Debut and More Hits

In 2014, Harrdy Sandhu made his acting debut in the Punjabi movie Yaaran Da Katchup. The movie did okay, but he kept making hit songs. Some of his popular songs include "Joker," "Backbone," "Horn Blow," and "Yaar Ni Milya." These songs were often made with Jaani and B Praak.

In 2017, he released the song "Naah," which featured the dancer Nora Fatehi. This song was a huge success. In 2018, he released "Kya Baat Ay" with the same team, and it also became very popular. Both "Naah" and "Kya Baat Ay" have been watched over 500 million times on YouTube!

Later, he released other hit songs like "Superstar," "Dance Like," "Jee Karda," and "Titliaan Warga." He also sang songs for Bollywood films, such as "Chandigarh Mein" from Good Newwz and "Naah Goriye" from Bala.

Bollywood Acting and Viral Songs

Harrdy Sandhu made his big Bollywood acting debut in the sports drama film 83 in 2021. This movie was about India's win at the 1983 Cricket World Cup. He played the role of Madan Lal, a real-life fast bowler from that winning team.

In November 2021, he released a new song called "Bijlee Bijlee." Jaani wrote and composed it, and B Praak did the music. This song, along with its special dance step, became super popular on Instagram Reels. In August 2022, the sports brand Puma chose Harrdy Sandhu to be their new brand ambassador.
