Family sources had earlier confirmed that the parents of the late Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, are expecting a new addition to their family. And now, Moosewala’s mother, Charan Kaur, has given birth to a baby boy. The late singer’s father, Balkaur Singh, took to Instagram to share a photo and confirm the news. According to reports, Charan Kaur is 58 and Balbir is 60. In the photo, he can be seen holding the newlyborn in his arms, sitting in front of a framed photo of his late elder son. There was a cake in front of him too. He captioned the photo in Punjabi. It loosely translates to, “With the blessings of millions of souls who love Shubdeep, the Almighty has put Shubh’s younger brother in our bag. With the blessings of Waheguru, the family is healthy and thankful to all the well-wishers for their immense love.”
Moosewala, who unsuccessfully contested the Punjab Assembly elections on a Congress ticket from Mansa in 2022, was tragically murdered on May 29 of the same year. He was shot dead by assailants in his car on May 29, 2022, in Jawaharke village of Mansa district.
The singer was really popular, particularly among the youth, and was known for composing and producing his own songs. He was regarded as one of the wealthiest Punjabi singers. Despite his untimely demise, many of his songs have been released posthumously and have raked in millions of views.
A group of assailants shot and fatally wounded the singer in Mansa, Punjab in May, 2022. Despite being rushed to the hospital, he succumbed to his injuries before receiving medical attention. Since Moosewala’s murder, his parents have been leading a movement to seek justice for their son.
