Body of Ishmeet Singh Flown to India

ishmeet singhThe body of Ishmeet Singh – winner of Star TV show “Voice of India 2007”, singing competition held by India’s Star Plus Channel, has been flown to India this morning.

Ishmeet Singh is reported to have died by drowning in the pool of Chaaya Dhonveli Beach Resort where he was staying. While there has been reports of different speculations as to the cause of his fatal accident, as of yet there has been no comment by his friends who were at the pool with him at the time of the tragic accident. The Maldives Police are currently carrying out necessary investigations.

The 19-year-old singer arrived in Maldives Tuesday morning to take part in a show being held in Male’, the capital city, by his contracting music company. The show was planned to be held during this weekend.

Everyone who accompanied Ishmeet Singh to the Maldives has also now returned to India and the show to be held in Malé has now been postponed. However, before they left, the Vice President of Star Plus channel, talking to Television Maldives, promised to be back to hold the postponed show. Saying that he felt deeply indebted to the Maldivian supporters for the love and affection they showed to Ishmeet and his team during this short, ill-fated trip, he said they would definitely be back to hold the show here in Malé. He claimed it would be for the sake of Ishmeet Singh.

    Its a very shocking and undigestable to believe on this accident happened with ISHMEET SINGH. In news we are listening different things of what has happened with him and just now i read the comment by singer SHAAN from India- which was totally different from what we heard the interview of one of the spoker from the Resort of Maldives which was also different. So we want to know what is the truth. KINDLY GIVE US THE CORRECT INFORMATION.

    WE WANT A SINCERE INVESTIGATION AND PROPER ENQUIRY IN ISHMEET SINGH’S TRAGIC DEATH.

    I wish some magic brings him back. Please GOD do some miracle.
    I am so restless since yesterday. He had so much to do/see in life. Such a young humble boy. Why did it happen to him? Life is so unfair.
    Ishmeet You will be missed.

    This is absolutely devastating news and we are still shocked. We watched him on Jo Jeeta wohi… and it was sad to see him leave. He was among the best. He also had done playback singing and his career was just picking up. We pray God’s comfort and strength to surround his whole family and keep them in peace.
    May his soul rest in peace.

    I am deeply saddened to hear today this tragic news. He drowned in a Five-star hotel not at a beach. Where were the lifeguards when he was drowning. May God rest his soul in peace.
