Sidhu Moosewala Became Close To Lawrence Bishnoi's Rivals Lead To His Death? Revealed

Last Updated:
Sidhu Moosewala, who unsuccessfully contested the Punjab Assembly elections on a Congress ticket from Mansa in 2022, was tragically murdered on May 29, 2022.
A new BBC documentary has revealed the relationship between Sidhu Moosewala and Lawrence Bishnoi, as well as what ultimately led to the Punjabi singer's death in 2022. In the second episode of the documentary, Goldy Brar shared details of the dispute between Sidhu and Lawrence Bishnoi via audio messages. He mentioned that the two were on good terms initially, but tension between them increased when Sidhu became close to Lawrence's rivals.
'Lawrence was in touch with Sidhu. I don't know who introduced them, and I never asked, but they did speak. Sidhu used to send 'Good morning' and 'Good night' messages in an effort to flatter Lawrence," he said in the audio message.
Goldy Brar mentioned that things changed after Sidhu Moosewala returned from Canada to India. Reportedly, during this time, the singer became close to Lawrence's rivals and even performed at a Kabaddi match in a village that was a hub of the rivals.
What worsened Sidhu's equation with Lawrence Bishnoi was the murder of Vicky Middukhera. Vicky was the mentor of Lawrence and Goldy, and it was said that Sidhu helped rival gang members in his murder. Even though Sidhu denied any involvement in the murder, his growing closeness with the rival gangs led to his death.
Sidhu Moosewala, who unsuccessfully contested the Punjab Assembly elections on a Congress ticket from Mansa in 2022, was tragically murdered on May 29, 2022. He was shot dead by assailants in his car in Jawaharke village of Mansa district. Even though he was rushed to a hospital immediately, he succumbed to his injuries before receiving medical attention.
Following Moosewala's murder, his parents also led a movement to seek justice for their son. A music video was also released prominently displaying a flag with the message 'Justice for Sidhu Moosewala".
Sidhu Moosewala was very 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.

'Jaya Is His Wife, Rekha His GF': When Yash Chopra Spoke About Making Silsila With Amitabh Bachchan

Yash Chopra's 1981 film Silsila starred Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, and Rekha, reflecting their real-life love triangle, adding intrigue to the film's narrative. They say that only the late legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra would have dared to cast Rekha, Amitabh Bachchan, and Jaya Bachchan in a film together back in the 80s. That was also the time when the trio would make headlines every other day for more than one reason. Here, we are discussing the making of Silsila, which featured the three, and as many would argue, told the real-life story of the three leading stars. Yash Chopra, in a rather bold interview, had once openly spoken about his film and commented on Big B's personal life, calling Rekha his 'girlfriend". Silsila (1981) starred Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan and Rekha in lead roles. The story was somewhat similar to their real-life situation, too, which would often make it to the headlines. Reportedly, Rekha was in love with already-married Amitabh, who used to reciprocate her feelings. Jaya Bachchan would be seen breaking down profusely in several occasions – be it in film premieres watching their love scenes together or that one time the Umrao Jaan actor grabbed the limelight after she appeared at Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor's wedding wearing sindoor. In an exclusive BBC interview in 2010, Yash Chopra had revealed that Amitabh and Rekha's affair was going strong even before they started shooting Silsila, which ironically mirrored the real life drama. Chopra said, 'I was always on tenterhooks and scared (during Silsila) because it was real life coming into reel life. Jaya is his wife and Rekha is his girlfriend and the same story is going on (in real life). Anything could have happened because they are working together." Yash Chopra had even followed up his statement, saying, 'When a man and woman are doing romantic scenes it's not possible they won't get in a relationship – in the past, it wasn't so open, but today it is. No one cared in the past." The interviewer was taken aback by Yash Chopra's candid admission, later telling Eastern Eye, 'It's a rumour we have grown up with, but no one has ever confirmed it." The filmmaker's remarks about Amitabh Bachchan's much-discussed love life aired on the BBC Asian Network. Following the broadcast, rumours swirled that the Silsila actor had made frantic phone calls and was visibly upset and angry about the revelations. However, the BBC Asian Network refuted these claims, stating, 'Following the interview with Yash Chopra on the BBC Asian Network's Sonia Deol Show on Wednesday 11 August, we have had no contact or correspondence from Amitabh Bachchan's representatives." What is the story of Rekha, Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan's Silsila? Silsila, directed by Yash Chopra and released in 1981, is a romantic drama that delves into the complexities of love, loyalty, and societal expectations. Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, and Rekha, the film features a love triangle that mirrored real-life relationship rumors, adding an intriguing layer to the story. The movie's poignant narrative, soul-stirring music by Shiv-Hari, and evocative lyrics by Javed Akhtar explore themes of forbidden love and sacrifice. Although it wasn't a major box office hit at the time, Silsila has since achieved cult status, remembered for its bold casting, emotional depth, and the iconic last on-screen pairing of Rekha and Amitabh.
