Rare Disease

In childhood, he was detected with rickets, a growth hormone deficiency. Due to his family’s poor financial condition, they could not afford appropriate medical treatment for his disease, which resulted in his stunted physical growth. In an interview, when asked if his medical condition affected his self-esteem, Abdu replied,

Not really. I know a lot of people who have no job, no good family, and no money. I’ve had my fair share of struggles, too, but I am happy with where I’ve reached now. I shared the stage with the biggest composer in the world; what more do I want in my career? I’d like to inspire people who have a similar condition. I believe everyone is special in some way.”

Career

Singer

Abdu has lent his voice to various Tajikistani songs like “Ohi Dili Zor” (2019), “Chaki Chaki Boron” (2020), and “Modar” (2021).

“Ohi Dili Zor” (2019)

In an interview, he shared how he started singing. He said,

I learnt the songs by listening to them on cassettes. Whenever I was stressed, I used to hum and sing to distract myself. Eventually, singing became a passion. I lived in a village, and so, I used to sing at the bazaars. My social media page still has those videos from when I started,” he shares and adds, “I knew about the latest songs only after I moved to Dubai.”

His songs are available on the YouTube channel Abdu Rozik. The lyrics of most of his songs are based on the struggles he faced in his life.

MMA Fighter

Abdu has also participated in a few MMA fights with kids and dwarf players. In May 2021, the Russian TikToker and MMA fighter Hasbulla (who is also suffering from the same disease) challenged him for an MMA fight. As soon as their MMA match was announced, it created hype on social media, but the Russian Dwarf Athletic Association (RDAA) did not approve it and termed it unethical. During an interview, when Hasbulla was asked about the fight, he said,

Abdu Rozik? He’s a bum. A singer. This fight doesn’t even make sense, fighting with a singer would be a shame for me.”

Gained Popularity in India

In 2021, he uploaded a video of him singing the Hindi song ‘Enna Sona’ by Arijit Singh from the film ‘OK Jaanu’ (2017). He was invited to attend the IIFA (2022) award ceremony which was held in Abu Dhabi, UAE. During the event, he sang the Hindi song “Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga” from the film ‘1942: A Love Story’ (1994). He dedicated the song to Salman Khan, who was also present at the event. After the event, Salman Khan met him and hugged him.

Abdu was then invited to India to attend A. R. Rahman’s daughter Khatija Rahman’s wedding reception. In an interview, while talking about it, Abdu said,

Ameen (Rahman’s son and musician) knew the work I was doing and reached out to me. We continued to keep in touch, and then, we first met in Dubai. We became good friends and later, I met AR Rahmanji. I played the piano and we all had an impromptu jam session. That was my first meeting with him.”

He has also performed live with the renowned Indian singer A. R. Rahman. In an interview, while talking about the same, he said,

I sang Mustafa Mustafa along with him on stage. It was such an honour to perform with an Oscar-winning composer, who is known globally for his music. I was definitely nervous when singing his lines. But he was sweet enough to let me sing fully. To share the stage with one of my favourite musicians was a dream-come-true moment for me.”

In 2022, he participated in the Hindi reality TV show ‘Bigg Boss’ season 16. During an interview, he talked about participating in the show. He said,

I am excited and nervous but I can’t wait to embark on the next chapter of my life with Bigg Boss 16. Being short and small used to be such a hindrance as people always underestimated my aptitude. People always bad-mouthed me as being the unfortunate child of God and mocked me for my disability throughout my childhood, but now look where I have reached today.”
