Sidhu Moosewala's mother gets emotional
A video making the rounds on social media captured the heartbreaking scene. Sidhu Moosewala's mother held her younger son's hand as they cut a cake together. As they marked the special day, she was seen getting emotional. In a deeply touching moment, she fed a piece of cake to Sidhu's photo frame, a gesture that moved fans to tears.
Sidhu Moosewala, whose real name was Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, was a well known Punjabi singer, rapper and songwriter.
His sudden death on 29 May 2022 shocked the music world. He was tragically shot dead in his car by attackers in Jawaharke village in Mansa district. Though he was quickly taken to a hospital, he sadly passed away before he could receive treatment.
His fans, especially the younger generation, admired his music and strong voice. He wasn't just a singer—he composed and produced many of his own tracks. Even after his tragic demise, Sidhu's popularity has not faded.
In fact, several songs have been released after his passing, gaining millions of views online.
Fans celebrate his legacy
Fans celebrated Sidhu's birth anniversary with love and music. As a special tribute, his team released three unreleased songs on his official YouTube channel. These tracks—'0008', 'Neal' and 'Take Notes'—were part of a new extended play titled Moose Print. The songs were a gift to his loyal supporters and a reminder of his unforgettable voice.
BBC documentary stirs emotions
Alongside the music, the BBC World Service launched a two-part documentary on YouTube that shares Sidhu Moosewala's story and the events surrounding his murder. The first episode was released on 11 June at 5 AM.
However, the release faced legal trouble. Sidhu's father, Balkaur Singh Sidhu, filed a petition in a Mansa court to stop the screening of the documentary. He took legal action, asking the court to stop its release. Despite the petition, the court scheduled the hearing for Thursday and did not block the BBC from publishing the documentary online. Originally, BBC had planned a cinema screening in Mumbai, but due to the legal situation, the documentary was directly uploaded to YouTube instead.
