2 yrs after Sidhu Moosewala killing, his parents welcome baby boy

Sidhu Moosewala, who was killed in May 2022, was the only child of his parents.

Moosewala was the only child of his parents — mother Charan Kaur, 58, and Balkaur Singh, 60.

ALMOST TWO years after gunmen shot dead popular Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh alias Sidhu Moosewala in Mansa district of Punjab, his parents Sunday welcomed a baby boy into the family.

Moosewala’s father Balkaur Singh, 60, made the announcement in a post on Facebook. “With the blessings of lakhs and crores of people who love Shubhdeep, the Almighty has blessed us with Shubh’s little brother,” Balkaur said in his post. “The family is healthy and I am grateful for the immense love of all well-wishers.”

He also posted a picture of him holding the baby and a welcome cake with Moosewala’s photo in the background.

The baby was delivered at Jindal Hospital in Bathinda.

Balkaur also shared an emotional video of his wife Charan Kaur, 58, from the hospital. He broke down as he said that he felt like Moosewala had returned as junior Shubhdeep.

Sources said Balkaur and his wife opted for IVF technique and had gone abroad for treatment last year. The family had at the time requested for privacy until the procedure was successful.

After the news of the birth went viral Sunday, Moosewala’s fans rushed to his house in Moosa village and played Holi to mark the celebrations. Political leaders, especially from the Congress, also congratulated the parents. PPCC chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring visited Balkaur to congratulate him.

The singer, who had unsuccessfully contested the Punjab Assembly polls on a Congress ticket from Mansa in 2022, was shot dead on May 29 that year.
