Sidhu Moosewala 3rd Death Anniversary: May 29, 2025, marks three years since the tragic and untimely death of one of Punjab’s most beloved music icons—Sidhu Moosewala. The pain still lingers for millions of fans across the globe, who continue to keep his music and memory alive. At just 28, Sidhu Moosewala left an unmatched legacy that continues to inspire generations.
Today, his father Balkaur Singh held a heartfelt prayer ceremony at their home in Moosa village, Mansa. The gathering, open to all, began at 10 a.m. and included a Shri Sehaj Path Ji—an intimate religious tribute to honor his son’s memory. The air in Moosa was heavy with emotion, as villagers and fans from across Punjab came together in unity and remembrance.
On that fateful day—May 29, 2022—Sidhu was ambushed and shot dead in his car in Mansa. His government-provided security had been scaled down just a day earlier. He was not in his bulletproof vehicle, and only two bodyguards were present instead of the usual four. According to doctors, he was hit by 19 bullets and succumbed to his injuries within 15 minutes. The news sent shockwaves through the nation and triggered outrage among his supporters.
Investigations revealed a chilling conspiracy behind his murder. Police chargesheets name gangster Lawrence Bishnoi and Canada-based Goldy Brar as the masterminds. The killing was allegedly to avenge the death of Youth Akali leader Vicky Middukhera, a close aide of Bishnoi. Moosewala’s manager, Shaganpreet, was suspected of involvement in Vicky’s murder in August 2021, making Sidhu a marked man in the eyes of these gangsters.
Yet, what continues to haunt fans and close ones is the eerie sense that Moosewala knew something ominous was on the horizon. His haunting track “The Last Ride,” released just before his death, paints a picture of a young man who accepts an early death and legendary status—similar to the fate of icons like Tupac Shakur. Lyrics from the song now feel prophetic, adding an emotional depth to his already powerful body of work.
Adding to this mystique, political figure and Bigg Boss contestant Tajinder Bagga once claimed that an astrologer had warned Sidhu about danger and advised him to leave India. Sidhu, however, chose to stay. Days later, he was gone—leaving behind a void that no artist has yet been able to fill.
Sidhu Moosewala was more than just a singer. He was a phenomenon. Songs like “So High,” “295,” “Bambiha Bole,” and “Issa Jatt” became anthems of youth rebellion and pride. His debut album PBX 1 made it to the Billboard Canadian Albums chart. He graced global stages like the Wireless Festival in the UK and even ventured into acting, starring in Punjabi films like Moosa Jatt and Yes I Am Student.
Even three years after his passing, Sidhu Moosewala’s voice refuses to fade. His songs continue to break records, his quotes are still shared widely, and his influence on Punjabi youth is profound. Fans believe he isn’t gone—he just became immortal through his art.
As prayers echo through Moosa village today, the world remembers a legend who lived with courage, spoke with fire, and left like a storm—forever young, forever Moosewala.Tools
