BBC releases Sidhu Moosewala’s documentary.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

BBC World Service has released a two-part documentary, titled \u2018The Killing Call\u2019, on the Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu on June 11, focusing on how he was killed at a young age.<\/p>\n

The foreign media house released the documentary on Moose Wala\u2019s birth anniversary. Days before, Moose Wala\u2019s father had filed a petition in the Mansa court in Punjab seeking a stay on the documentary\u2019s screening.<\/p>\n

The court will be hearing the petition on June 12. Despite the Moose Wala family\u2019s objections to the documentary, the two-part documentary was published by the BBC.<\/p>\n

The documentary was published before the family was able to release their own tribute which is an extended play (EP) of the singer\u2019s unreleased songs.<\/p>\n

The documentary features gangster Goldy Brar\u2019s audio interview. Brar has been accused of orchestrating the assassination\u00a0of Moose Wala\u00a0on May 29, 2022, in Jawahar Ke village, Mansa district.<\/p>\n

It also contains interviews with some of the senior police officials from Punjab and Delhi, journalists and Moose Wala\u2019s old friends.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the BBC had decided to screen the documentary in a Mumbai cinema hall. However, the plan was cancelled after the controversy, and the media house decided to release it on YouTube instead.<\/p>\n

In the YouTube video\u2019s description, the BBC wrote: \u201cOn 29 May 2022, Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala was murdered by hired gunmen who tracked his car, shot him through the windshield, and left him to die. Afterwards, gangster Goldy Brar publicly claimed responsibility for the killing. But nearly three years later, no one has been convicted, the motives remain unclear, and Brar is still at large. BBC Eye Investigations has spoken to people close to Sidhu, tracing his rise from rural Punjab to global stardom, examining how he became entangled with one of India\u2019s most feared criminal networks, and asking why he was targeted.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a story that spans rural Indian villages, Canada\u2019s hip-hop scene, the complex history of Punjab, and the evolving political climate in India. It also ventures into the hidden world of organised crime and includes a chilling phone call with the fugitive gangster who claims to have ordered the killing. Featuring exclusive access to Moose Wala\u2019s friends and collaborators, and previously unseen archive material, the film includes voices speaking publicly for the first time,” they added.<\/p>\n

Moose Wala\u2019s father, Balkaur Singh Sidhu, in his complaint, had said that a programme is being organised by BBC World Service on June 11 at 3 pm to screen Sidhu Moose Wala\u2019s documentary in Juhu.<\/p>\n

The father had raised concerns that the documentary may destroy his son\u2019s legacy.<\/p>\n
