Chandigarh, May 31 (IANS) Popular Punjabi singer-rapper Sidhu Moosewala's parents hugged their son's coffin as they bid a tearful goodbye to the slain singer on Tuesday.
Pictures and videos on social media showed Moosewala's mother hugging the glass casket in which his mortal remains were kept. The mother could not stop looking at her son's lifeless body. His father broke down and then she turned to wipe his tears.
A sea of fans and mourners gathered at the singer's village Moosa for the cremation, which took place on Tuesday afternoon.
Moosewala was brutally murdered on Sunday. He was in his car when the attackers blocked him and fired more than 30 shots at him.
The Delhi High Court will on Wednesday hear the plea filed by jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, named as a suspect in the sensational murder of Sidhu Moosewala, alleging apprehension of a fake encounter by the Punjab Police for 'political mileage'.
For 'Songs Of The Earth', the musician will join forces with Indian illustrators Anjali Kamath and Sachin Bhatt -- who also created the artwork for Datta's 2019 EP Jangal -- and Earth Day Network India to create an animated film that aims to disrupt, provoke and challenge the unacceptable wreckage of our planet's environmental health through animation and contemporary music.
Although the song doesn't fall in the category of rap, it bears a similarity with that genre of music in the sense that rap requires continuous singing, almost without a break.
Singer Jonita Gandhi has come up with her latest Punjab single "Mera jee karda". "I really enjoy singing in Punjabi, so I had fun singing Mera jee karda. It's one of my first independent releases in Punjabi and I hope people react well to my voice in this song," Jonita said.
The music video of rapper Badshah and singer Aastha Gill's latest track "Paani paani'', featuring Bollywood star Jacqueline Fernandez, has crossed a 100-million views on YouTube.
Singer Shaan is set to release a new song to mark Father's Day on June 20. The track titled "Tera hissa hoon" tells the story of a father-son relationship.
