Sonam Bajwa pays heartfelt tribute to Sidhu Moosewala on his third death anniversary

Yesterday May 29, 2025, marked three years since the tragic death of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, and fans across the world are remembering the late star. Actress Sonam Bajwa, who had worked with Moosewala on the hit track ‘Brown Shortie’, shared two touching tributes on her Instagram stories.

The first was a behind-the-scenes photo from the music video, where Sonam and Moosewala are seen holding hands and smiling at the camera. She added a white pigeon and an infinity symbol to the story — signs of peace and everlasting remembrance.

The second post was an old photo from a shoot, where Sonam simply wrote, “You’ll be forever missed”, showing just how deeply she still feels his loss.

Remembering the tragic day

Sidhu Moosewala, whose real name was Subhdeep Singh Sidhu, was shot dead on 29 May 2022 in his hometown, Jawaharke village in Mansa, Punjab. His death stunned not only India but Punjabi communities around the world.

At the time, reports said his security had been reduced just the day before the attack, from four bodyguards to two. He was driving a non-bulletproof car when he was ambushed by gunmen who fired 19 bullets. He died from his injuries within 15 minutes. The tragic news led to widespread grief and anger among fans and fellow artists.
