In a tragic turn of events, the Assamese music industry and the nation have lost a beloved figure. Zubeen Garg, a renowned singer, passed away at the age of 52 following a scuba diving accident in Singapore.
Zubeen Garg, a native of Golaghat, Assam, began singing at the tender age of three. His career took off with the release of his debut album, Anamika, in 1992. Over the years, he made a mark in Bollywood with songs for films such as Dil Se, Vaastav, Fiza, Asoka, Kaante, Gangster, and Krrish 3. In the Assamese music scene, he left an indelible mark with albums like Maya, Zubeenor Gaan, Xabda, Pakhi, Shishu, and Jantra.
Garg was in Singapore to participate in the North East Festival and was scheduled to perform later that day when he passed away. He was rushed to Singapore General Hospital, where he was later declared deceased in the ICU around 2:30 PM IST.
