On 11 June, fans remembered the late Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala on what would have been his 32nd birthday. While tributes poured in from around the world, one emotional moment stood out—his mother cutting a cake in his memory with her younger son, Shubhdeep Singh, also lovingly known as Lil Sidhu. 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.

Song releases, controversial documentary mark Moose Wala's 32nd birth anniversary
Bathinda : The 32nd birth anniversary of slain Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moose Wala , was marked on Wednesday with both tributes and controversy. While three new songs featuring the singer were released, a documentary claiming to reveal fresh details about his murder was unveiled on YouTube. This despite Moose Wala's father Balkaur Singh issuing a legal notice to its producers and approaching a Mansa court seeking a stay on the film's release, citing potential influence on ongoing legal proceedings. The court had posted the case for Thursday. Originally scheduled for a public screening in Mumbai, "The Killing Call" — uploaded to the online video sharing platform — includes interviews with journalists, cops and gangster Goldy Brar, who has claimed responsibility for Moose Wala's killing. In the documentary, Brar alleges Moose Wala was warned multiple times and made "unforgivable mistakes". He claims the situation became a matter of "either him or us". Brar details the origins of the conflict, stating Moose Wala angered jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's gang by promoting a kabaddi tournament linked to their rivals, the Bambiha gang. Although a temporary peace was brokered by Bishnoi associate Vicky Middukhera, tensions heightened after Middukhera was killed in 2021. The Bambiha gang claimed responsibility. Moose Wala's manager, Shaganpreet Singh, was accused of aiding the shooters. Shaganpreet later fled India and is believed to be in Australia. Police, however, found no direct link between Moose Wala and the killing. The documentary, released in two episodes, traces Moose Wala's rise from rural Punjab to international stardom, examining his clashes with gang culture and the politics surrounding his image. The second part explores the events leading to his death. Moose Wala was shot dead on May 29, 2022, by gunmen who ambushed his car. Though Brar publicly claimed responsibility, no one has been convicted three years later. Brar remains a fugitive. Moose Wala's father reiterated that his legal action aims to prevent interference with the judicial process, maintaining hope for justice in his son's murder case. BOX Threats, father's backing & SUV: 3 new tracks out Three posthumous tracks — "Take Notes", "0008", and "Neal" — of Sidhu Moose Wala were released on Wednesday. The songs refer to threats, conspiracies and Moose Wala's confrontational stance against his adversaries. In "Take Notes" the lyrics go, "kei kalakara ne threat bhejia Dirbe ch kare ik show karke, badia ne jor laya saan nu sutten lei dabia ni putt picho pio karke" (some artists sent threats for holding a show at Dirba. Many tried to cause harm, but he could not be as he was shielded by his father). "0008", referring to his SUV's numberplate "PB65AM0008", calls it a "jamdoot da jhota" (bull of jamdoot, God of death), which tracks those eyeing disputed plots in Mohali and keeps armed men in it to tackle them.
