Zubeen Garg passed away in Singapore.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Days after singer Zubeen Garg\u2019s tragic death, his manager, Siddhartha Sharma, has finally issued a statement clarifying the ownership of the singer\u2019s vast catalogue and the earnings from his creative work. In an open letter that Sarma<\/a> wrote, he stated that contrary to public perception, the majority of Garg\u2019s 38,000 recorded songs are contractually owned by various production houses and music companies.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlmost all of Zubeen da\u2019s songs, even the biggest blockbusters, were done before I entered his life. He often lamented how he was shortchanged, with producers and labels earning crores while he received only modest payments. This can be verified with those companies directly,” Sharma wrote.<\/p>\n

The manager also revealed that in 2021, Garg decided to build ownership over some of his later works by establishing Zubeen Garg Music LLP. It is in this business entity that Sarma had also partnered.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe LLP has generated only a few thousand rupees monthly so far. The entire amount remains in the company account, with no withdrawals. Zubeen da owned 60 per cent of the firm, and I consider it my duty to ensure that his family rightfully inherits this stake,” he added.<\/p>\n

Sarma also revealed that all the earnings that Zubeen received as a composer and lyricist were made directly to his personal account and will now be transferred to the singer\u2019s widow, Garima Garg.<\/p>\n

Denying allegations of exploiting Zubeen\u2019s trust or finances, Sarma stated, \u201cThese rumours are baseless and deeply hurtful. I have cooperated with the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing his death and will continue to do so.”<\/p>\n

Sarma concluded by requesting Garg\u2019s fans not to spread miscommunication. \u201cThis is a request from one human being to another. Let the investigation proceed without fear or prejudice. We owe it to Zubeen da\u2019s memory to pursue truth with dignity,” he said.<\/p>\n

SIT Raids Zubeen Garg\u2019s Manager\u2019s Home<\/h4>\n

Sarma\u2019s statement comes a day after a Special Investigation Team (SIT) raided his residence in Guwahati\u2019s Datalpara area. As reported by India Today, a team of officials arrived at the premises in the morning but waited outside the building for nearly two hours before starting the search.<\/p>\n

When the SIT team reached Sharma\u2019s apartment for a search, they found that it was locked. The lock was then broken and a search was conducted in the presence of a magistrate.<\/p>\n

Reportedly, Zubeen\u2019s manager and his family have been living in this apartment since 2019. However, neighbours informed that they have not been seen since the day the singer died.<\/p>\n

When And How Did Zubeen Garg Die?<\/h4>\n

Zubeen Garg passed away on September 19. Garg was rescued from the sea by Singapore police and immediately rushed to a nearby hospital. He was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), where doctors monitored his condition and provided intensive care. Despite these efforts, the singer sadly succumbed to his injuries. The singer had travelled to Singapore to participate in the North East Festival, where he was scheduled to perform on the day of the incident.<\/p>\n
