In a long note written in memory of Sidhu, he wrote, “Dear son, since you crossed the threshold of the house, 730 days, 17532 hours and 1051902 minutes and 63115200 seconds have passed. The fruit of my prayers was snatched away by our enemies as the evening fell, causing such darkness that even the rays of the sun do not hope to dissipate.”
She further added, “But son, Guru Maharaj was aware of your thoughts and dreams, so I have been blessed with a son. Son, I, your father and your younger brother, will always keep your presence in this world. Of course, I cannot see you physically, but I can feel you and have been feeling you for the last two years. Today is a very difficult day, son.” The post was captioned with crying emojis.
The post was captioned with a crying emoji. Apart from this, Sidhu’s father also posted a heart-wrenching picture and captioned it, “#JusticeforSidhuMooseWala.”
The family is organising a function in his honour today
Sidhu’s family has also organised a small event in Punjab’s Mansa district to pay tribute to him on his second death anniversary on Wednesday.
According to Moosewala’s father Balkaur Singh, they have organised a simple programme due to the scorching heat and elections. He also urged people not to gather in large numbers at the event.
“It will be a very simple programme as there are elections and the temperature is very high. We have told people from outside not to come here, only village and family members are coming. The public has been told not to come… only religious rituals will be performed,” Singh told news agency ANI.
Earlier on Tuesday evening, many people in Mansa paid tribute to the late Punjabi artist with statues, busts and photographs. According to reports, T-shirts and coffee mugs with Moosewala’s face are also available in local shops.
The singer turned politician is known for several hit songs such as So High, Same Beef, The Last Ride, Just Listen and 295.
