Published: April 21, 2026 | Punjabi Music | Posthumous Releases | Justice For Moosewala
He has been gone for nearly four years. And yet, Sidhu Moosewala’s voice continues to break the internet — one posthumous release at a time. On April 21, 2026, the team of the slain Punjabi legend dropped the teaser of his brand new song Eyes On Me across social media platforms — and within just two minutes of going live, the 34-second clip had already racked up 1.2 lakh views on YouTube and nearly 15,000 likes on Instagram. The full song is yet to release — and the world is already waiting.
This is what legacy sounds like.
What Is the ‘Eyes On Me’ Teaser and What Does It Show?
The much-awaited teaser of Eyes On Me by slain Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was released by his team on various social media platforms on April 21, 2026.
The 34-second teaser features Sidhu Moosewala in an action-packed sequence — intense, charged, and completely in line with his legacy as someone who never softened his truth for anyone’s comfort.
The song’s full credits, as listed on Sidhu Moosewala’s official YouTube channel, are:
- Singer / Lyricist / Composer: Sidhu Moose Wala
- Music: The Kidd
- Video: Tru Makers
- Official Song & Music Video: Coming Soon
The Kidd and Tru Makers are not new names in Moosewala’s world. The Kidd has been responsible for the music behind some of his most celebrated tracks, and Tru Makers — the same production team behind the Moosa Jatt film teaser — has been a consistent visual collaborator throughout his career.
What Is ‘Eyes On Me’ Expected to Be About?
The title alone carries enormous weight. And the story behind it is even more striking.
The team of Sidhu Moosewala announced the title of the upcoming track through a post on his official Instagram account, with the accompanying photograph of the late singer suggesting that the song may revolve around the circumstances surrounding his murder. The post indicated that it would highlight crucial information allegedly gathered by the assailants before the killing.
In other words — Eyes On Me is expected to be a direct, unflinching account of the surveillance, planning, and conspiracy that led to Sidhu Moosewala’s assassination on May 29, 2022. The title itself is chilling in that context: it speaks to the moment a man realises he is being watched, followed, and targeted.
The song is expected to focus on his murder and earlier alleged conspiracies to eliminate him.
If that is what the full song delivers, it will be one of the most powerful posthumous musical statements in Indian music history — a dead man’s account of his own killing, told in his own words, with his own voice.
How Did Fans React to the Teaser?
Instantaneously and overwhelmingly. Within minutes of its release:
- The teaser received nearly 15,000 likes on his official Instagram account within two minutes, and around 1.2 lakh views on his YouTube channel in almost the same time.
The hashtags #EyesOnMe, #JusticeForSidhuMoosewala, #MooseWalaMurder, #SidhuMoosewalaNewSong, and #SignedToGodTour began trending immediately. Fans flooded the comments section with tributes, grief, love, and rage — the unique emotional cocktail that only Moosewala’s posthumous releases seem to reliably produce.
This is a fanbase that has been waiting for over three years for answers. A song promising to speak directly to those questions — in Sidhu’s own voice — was never going to land quietly.
Who Was Sidhu Moosewala? The Man Behind the Legend
For those who may be new to his story, here is the essential truth of who Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu was.
Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu (11 June 1993 – 29 May 2022), known professionally as Sidhu Moose Wala, was an Indian singer and rapper who worked predominantly in Punjabi-language music and cinema. Moose Wala is considered to be one of the most influential and successful Punjabi rappers of all time and, to many, among the greatest Indian musicians of his generation.
He was born in the village of Moosa in the Mansa district of Punjab, India, and studied at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana, graduating with a degree in electrical engineering in 2016. He started listening to hip-hop music as a student in sixth grade, and was trained in music by Harvinder Bittu in Ludhiana.
He admired and was influenced by rapper Tupac Shakur — a detail that, in hindsight, carries a painful parallel. Like Tupac, Moosewala was shot dead in his prime, in his car, in a targeted ambush. Like Tupac, his posthumous releases continue to dominate charts and break records. Like Tupac, the question of who truly orchestrated his death has never been fully, legally resolved.
In 2020, Moose Wala was named by The Guardian among 50 up-and-coming artists. He became the first Indian singer to perform at Wireless Festival and won four awards at the Brit Asia TV Music Awards.
His debut album PBX 1 (2018) peaked at number 66 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart. His singles made UK charts. His posthumous track Mera Na — a collaboration with Burna Boy — charted at number 14 on the Canadian Hot 100 in April 2023. He was, in every measurable sense, a global artist taken far too soon.
How Was Sidhu Moosewala Killed?
This is the story that Eyes On Me is expected to address directly — and understanding it is essential context for any listener.
Punjabi musician Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead by unidentified assailants in his car on 29 May 2022 in Jawaharke village of Mansa. Moose Wala was 28.
Moose Wala was one of 424 people whose police security was reduced or entirely removed the day before his murder in preparation for the anniversary of Operation Blue Star, leaving him with two commandos instead of four. At the time of the incident, Moose Wala was travelling in his private car accompanied by two others instead of his bullet-proof vehicle with the commandos. According to his friends, Moose Wala did not take his security along with him, as his Thar SUV could not accommodate five people.
The timing was catastrophic. The reduction in his security — one day before he was killed — has remained one of the most controversial and painful aspects of the entire case. His family and fans have long argued that the government’s decision to curtail his protection directly enabled the murder.
Canadian gangster of Punjabi origin Satinder Singh, also known as Goldy Brar, claimed responsibility for the murder, saying his “Punjab module” carried out the shooting. Punjab Police later confirmed the Lawrence Bishnoi gang’s involvement. According to the police report, Moose Wala’s father revealed that Moose Wala had been receiving death threats from gangsters for extortion purposes.
The alleged motive? The main reason behind the killing was reportedly revenge for Vicky Middukhera, who was close to Brar. Moosewala’s aide was purported by the Bishnoi gang to have had a role in Middukhera’s killing, though there is no legal evidence to support this.
Who Is Lawrence Bishnoi and What Is His Connection to the Murder?
Lawrence Bishnoi is the gangster at the centre of this case — and his story has since expanded far beyond Moosewala’s murder to become one of India’s most alarming organised crime narratives.
Lawrence Bishnoi is an Indian gangster who attained notoriety as the boss of the “Bishnoi gang”, which is reportedly linked to over 800 sharpshooters operating across the world and is listed as a terrorist entity by Canada due to its alleged involvement in organised crime. Bishnoi has been imprisoned since 2014 and faces multiple criminal charges, including those for extortion and murder.
On 29 May 2022, Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala was assassinated in Mansa, Punjab. Bishnoi’s associate Goldy Brar claimed responsibility for orchestrating the murder in coordination with Bishnoi. At the time, Bishnoi was in custody in Tihar Jail, but police linked his gang to the shooting.
The surveillance that preceded Moosewala’s killing was meticulous and organised. A key member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, identified as Bobby Kabutar, was arrested by the Counter-Intelligence Unit of Delhi Police’s Special Cell in February 2026 after absconding for seven years. Investigations revealed that he was involved in conducting recce prior to the murder of Sidhu Moosewala — his role included gathering ground-level information ahead of the high-profile killing.
It is precisely this pre-murder surveillance — the watching, the following, the gathering of intelligence on a man’s movements — that the title Eyes On Me is understood to reference.
What Is the Current Status of the Sidhu Moosewala Murder Case?
Nearly four years later, the legal proceedings remain active but unresolved.
The Supreme Court in March 2026 granted bail to accused Pawan Bishnoi and Jagtar Singh in the 2022 Sidhu Moosewala murder case. A Bench of Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta granted bail on their petitions challenging the Punjab and Haryana High Court’s August 2025 order turning down their bail pleas.
While Pawan Bishnoi was accused of being a part of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and of providing logistical support to Moosewala’s assailants at the behest of Goldy Brar, Jagtar Singh — Moosewala’s own neighbour — was also charged in connection with the killing.
The case involves dozens of accused, multiple agencies including Punjab Police and Delhi Police’s Special Cell, and an international dimension through Canada-based operatives. No definitive trial verdict has been delivered as of April 2026.
For millions of fans, every new posthumous release is an act of keeping that case — and that demand for justice — alive.
What Are Sidhu Moosewala’s Other Recent Posthumous Releases?
Eyes On Me is far from the first posthumous release from Moosewala’s archives. His family and team have been consistently releasing tracks from his unreleased catalogue — songs he wrote, composed, and recorded before his death.
Some notable posthumous releases include:
- Mera Na (April 2023) — A collaboration with Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy, which peaked at number 14 on the Canadian Hot 100 and charted in the UK, Australia, and globally.
- SYL (June 2022) — A politically charged posthumous release referencing the Sutlej-Yamuna Link canal dispute, which peaked at number 27 on the Canadian Hot 100, number 3 in India, and 81 in Australia.
- 410 (April 2024) — A collaboration with Sunny Malton that charted on the Canada Hot 100, New Zealand, and UK music charts.
- BAROTA (November 2025) — Another posthumous release produced by The Kidd, featuring visuals by Tru Makers — the same team behind Eyes On Me.
Each release renews grief and celebration in equal measure. Each one is a reminder that Sidhu Moosewala’s catalogue, voice, and vision are still far from exhausted.
Who Is Sidhu Moosewala’s Family Today?
The Moosewala family has carried their grief with remarkable dignity and determination.
His father Balkaur Singh has been a consistent, visible voice for justice — appearing at public events, speaking to media, and ensuring the case remains in public consciousness. His mother Charan Kaur has maintained a quieter but equally fierce presence.
In March 2024, Sidhu’s parents had a second son via in vitro fertilisation — a deeply moving development that was received with overwhelming emotion by fans. The child represents both grief and continuity — a family refusing to let loss be the final word.
Moosewala’s village of Moosa in Mansa, Punjab, continues to draw visitors — fans who come simply to be close to the place that made him.
Why Does Sidhu Moosewala’s Legacy Keep Growing After His Death?
The numbers tell part of the story. His YouTube channel continues to accumulate hundreds of millions of streams. His Instagram posts routinely go viral. His name trends every time an anniversary, a court date, or a new release arrives.
But the deeper reason is this: Sidhu Moosewala was one of the few artists in Indian music who spoke truth about power, violence, politics, and identity without softening anything for commercial approval. His songs were not engineered for playlists. They were written for the people he came from.
He chose the name “Sidhu Moose Wala” as a tribute to his home village of Moosa — and he never really left that village behind, no matter how global his reach became. That authenticity is what his fans hold onto. It is what Eyes On Me — a song about being watched, targeted, and ultimately killed — embodies in its very premise.
He saw what was coming. He said so, many times, in many songs. And he still did not stop.
When Will the Full ‘Eyes On Me’ Song and Music Video Release?
As of April 21, 2026, no official release date has been announced. The YouTube teaser states only: “Official Song & Music Video Coming Soon.”
Given the team’s track record with previous releases like BAROTA, the full song is likely just days away — though Moosewala’s team has been known to let anticipation build before confirming dates.
Watch the official teaser on Sidhu Moosewala’s YouTube channel and keep notifications on. When this one drops — it is going to be historic.
