Pungra

The meaning of the song is “even though I am strong like a tree, you have uprooted me”.Who is The Kidd? His name is Gagandeep Singh and he is from Mohali in Punjab. He has collaborated with many artists. I find his music to be consistently fantastic. About Sidhu Moosewala. The first detail to know is that he was murdered in May 2022. It does feel strange that many years after his murder, there are tracks being released, but I guess this is a testament to how busy he kept himself before his death by recording many vocals. He was ahead of his time. When reading his name people who are not in the know pronounce it as Sidhu Moose Wala. However, those in the know, which includes you now, are aware that the local pronunciation involves to drop the w, meaning the pronunciation is Sidhu Moose arla. His name is Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, and he was born in the village of Moose in Punjab. Hence his name is Sidhu of Moose, in other words, our man from Moose, Sidhu Moose arla. To say that Sidhu Moose arla was a sensation is an understatement. In the short time that he rose to fame and created his music, he has managed to significantly modernise Punjabi music; impacting the way many other Punjabi artists approach their musical style. The youth of Punjab were waiting for something, and Sidhu Moose arla gave it to them. He died too early, but his impact on Punjabi music will last for a very long time. I play many of his songs in my class, so I will leave you with one of my favourites which is a collaboration between him and Gulab Sidhu, who I just played in Qaal. Actually this was the first time i discovered how great Gulab Sidhu is, like I said, there’s plenty for me to say about him in the future. Stay subscribed or following.

Sadly an Indian movie icon died. Be one of the few people that knows how to pronounce his name correctly.The actor that is sitting on the back of this bike, died aged 89.Who is he?He was a Punjabi man. Don’t believe me, look on Wikipedia. Born on 8th December 1935, his name is often incorrectly mispronounced as Duhmindra. But this is an incorrect pronunciation. So perhaps it’s time to learn how to say his name correctly. You know respect, and all that?His name, when written in Punjabi, starts with this letter, known as a dhadda, it is pronounced with a Tee sound, not a Dee sound. His name is not the only Punjabi word that is pronounced incorrectly. The famous drum is correctly pronounced tall, not dhol. People who have this Punjabi name are not called dhillon, it is tillor. This name is thami, not dharmi. And for these sames reasons, the superb actor who sadly died, is called Tarmindra, not darmindra. Found that interesting? Others might too. Share it, I don’t mind.

The Partition of India, which occurred on 14-15 August 1947, divided British India into two independent dominions: India and Pakistan. This event was driven by the two-nation theory, which argued that Muslims and Hindus were distinct and irreconcilable communities requiring separate states. The partition led to a massive displacement of between 10 and 20 million people and widespread sectarian violence. This track by Gulab Sidhu is a love song in which he is describing that he has a connection to someone from before the partition of 1947.

Dance-fitness may not be a path to great wealth, but it offers a predictable and relatively low-stress income stream compared to dance performing. Disclaimer: These are illustrative figures and not a guarantee or promise of income. While a single dance performance may yield a few hundred pounds, the number of gigs per year is limited and unpredictable, with expenses like costumes potentially cutting into profits. In contrast, dance-fitness trainers can earn a consistent income by leading regular classes, whether at a fitness center or through private hire. For instance, teaching one class per week at £30 per class could generate £1440 annually. Private hire, charging £8 per participant with 25 people per class, could yield a yearly income of £9600. However, aspiring dance-fitness instructors need to factor in the initial investment of obtaining the necessary Exercise to Music Level 2 certification, which costs up to £700 and ideally should be renewed every 5 to 10 years. Additional yearly expenses like music licensing, insurance, and promotion can range from £120 to £400.

Gurlej Akhtar and Gulab Sidhu, two prominent figures in Punjabi music, have recently collaborated on a new song.  Akhtar, known for her powerful vocals, has a rich history in the Punjabi music industry, having lent her voice to numerous hit films. Sidhu, who gained recognition with his song "Parle Ji", is a rising star who was deeply connected to the late Sidhu Moosewala.  Their song, utilized in Ravi Sandhu's dance-fitness classes, exemplifies the energy and widespread appeal of Punjabi music, potentially attracting a diverse audience. This collaboration underscores the vibrant and collaborative nature of the Punjabi music scene, blending established talent with rising stars to create captivating music.

Daler Mehndi, a well-known Punjabi singer based in India, collaborated with Amitabh Bachchan in 1997 to create the song "Na Na Na Re." The song was featured in the 1997 movie Mrityudaata. It's been rebooted in the 2024 movie Vicky Vidya Ka Who Wala Video. "Na Na Na Na Na Re" is about rejecting negativity, such as a "bad world". Ravi Sandhu, a dance-fitness instructor in the Greater London area, uses this song in his workout routines. Bollywood is a term for the Hindi movie industry of India. Punjab is a region spanning both India and Pakistan.
