About the Book

A POWERFUL BOOK THAT DETAILS THE DEATH AND THE SUBSEQUENT INVESTIGATION OF THE MURDER OF ONE OF THE RISING SUPERSTARS OF PUNJABI HIP-HOP.
On 29 May 2022, Sidhu Moosewala, a rising star of Punjabi hip-hop with more than 30 million followers across various social media platforms, was gunned down by gangsters. At the time of his death he was already a hugely popular youth icon in Punjab, a rebel and perhaps one of the most controversial figures in 21st-century Punjab. This book looks at the events of the day he was killed and the subsequent investigation that followed. Was Moosewala a product of the stormy history of the region or the one who tried to change the course of history?
