As I sit in front of my PC to write my blog, a sad news has shocked the music lovers in particular and the big-dreamers in general. 2007 STAR VOICE of India’s winner (a singing talent hunt show) Ishmit Singh has met with an untimely death. Ishmit, who rose to fame and stardom after winning the crown in November last year, was seen as one of the best things to have happened to the music industry in India. With his versatile singing and sober nature, he had won several hearts and was going places before this tragedy struck him and his friends and family. He got drowned in a swimming pool and died before he could be taken to the hospital. He was in Maldiv for a show. Music legends of India like Lata Mangeskar, who gave the winning title to Ishmit in the grand finale of the competition last year has expressed great shock and grief over the death of this potential singer. One of VOICE of India’s judges, singer Abhijeet expressed shock over this news and couldn’t control his emotions. Well, no one who knew Ishmit could come to terms with the sad news of his demise as he has bowled over many with his honesty, innocence and impeccable talent. May God give strength to his friends and family to bear this tragedy. May his soul rest in peace………………………We’ll miss u Ishmit……………
