Babbu Mann,a singer with huge fan following,wont be mentioning much about his singing career,the man who glorified hathyar through one of his songs,while in one of his earlier song he sing from a girl's point of view,pind pehra lagda(dont come to meet in night),now the song is close to two decade old,than there was this song about girl getting married,and telling her lover to do maujan,because later she will be marrying someone else..Now thats Babbu Mann,who also sang Jatt Di Joon Buri,to Wonderfully composed Mitran Di Chatri,Ajj Mainu Pher Teri Yaad,Pakki Kanak etc to later on taking digs at derawad with Ik Baba Nanak Si.Off late he is coming with disaster after other,at one hand he talks about Delhi Damini Gang Rape,and in other one blame girls for consent of sex,and than declaring it rape.
Looking at his acting career,He started with Hindi Film Hawaien,one of the best work on 1984,well detailed on truth.He was being promoted as major face of the film,but it was Amitoze Mann(Director of the film),who was in main lead,while Babbu was in strong supporting character of Kanpuria.
Hawaein was received well in North and Overseas,but could do no wonder in Hindi Belts.But hats off to Babbu and rest of producers to produce such project.

It took him another three year to come on screen again,with Punjabi Film Rabb Ne Banaiyan Jodiyan.It had superhit music,while the producer wanted to relaunch his son Jajj Pandher with a punjabi film,Those who have not seen,should watch it for Babbu's wardrobe,his long hair and chibb kadhan wali acting.There is a youtube video going the round,about how they came out with bold song,Rabb Ne Banaiaan Jodiyan also had one of first(or second) lip to lip kiss scene in Punjabi Film,along with very bold song Mainu Pata Nahi Laggeya.While fans enjoyed watching his fav in romantic scenes(maje le gaya jatt).There is difference in doing bold scenes,one done with full conviction,and other just keep doing anything,keep kissing the heroine..keep taking your hands anywhere..Well,film released,and ran for around 5-6 weeks(that too not in big cities,but smaller one) in Punjab(At time when Harbhajan Mann films were celebrating 100 days or even silver jubilee)
Film was an avrage at box office,while music sales saved the film more.
Next he had Hashar,a well made film,but again with Babbu's limited acting skills,but still better than over acting of its leading lady Gurleen Chopra(grand pa grand pa...maninder maninder),Now sample this a man with strong mind and values,lost his sense when a girl rejects him,He dont even cleared any matter of MMS with her.But still a good film.It was one of Babbu's biggest success with running for over 12 weeks in Punjab and celebrated 50 days at few cinemas.

His next was Ekam,a social film,in spite of less promotion it did well,though not a perfect film,but still a good attempt at social issue,it did well.
Then there were two of his productions Hero Hitler In Love or so,with bad songs and bad camera work and cheap look,opened well,but was out of theatres in second-third week.
Desi Romeos was again low profile,less publicized film,but did well at box office.

Baaz came at wrong time,While in order of respect or fear  some Punjabi Filmmakers pushed their films ahead,Baaz was released right after Chaar Sahibzaade,while his fans kept shouting film is hit,reputed site like box office india declared it flop.

His fans kept making memes to put other singers down,abusing fans of other singers,and dont wish to face reality.Baaz released in 2014,and since than no film of Babbu released,so called superstar and with no film release in last 3-4 years.Sometime back there was news he is doing three Hindi films,there is not even a trace of single Hindi Film.

In fact even Singing,he is best at is doing no wonder,with coming out with flop songs,and try to listen his Hindi Songs,Next he is coming with a film,lets hope for best.High time he realized his mistakes(he interfere a lot in his director's work,a director blamed him for its failure),An actor cant rise above script,work at script and his acting.With this kind of fan following,he should have a release every year,in stead of cashing well on his fan following,he coming with one blunder song after other..Hopefully Banjara will do wonders for him.
