Punjabi singer Harman Sidhu, best known for his hit number ‘Paper Te Pyaar’, died in a tragic road accident in Khyala village, Mansa district, on Saturday. He was 37.

According to PTC News, the accident took place on the Mansa–Patiala road when Sidhu’s car collided head-on with a truck. The impact was devastating, leaving the vehicle mangled beyond recognition. Sidhu died on the spot.

A Rising Talent Gone Too Soon

The singer, who rose to fame with his duet tracks—especially his popular collaborations with Miss Pooja—had carved a unique space among Gen Z listeners. His lyrics, often centred on family ties and relatable social themes, made him a household name in Punjab’s vibrant music scene.

Sidhu was reportedly returning home after completing a shooting schedule in Mansa. His family told the press that the singer had been preparing for a major comeback, with two new songs slated for release by the end of 2025.

A Personal and Industry Loss

Harman Sidhu leaves behind his wife and daughter, who are now grieving an irreplaceable loss. His father had passed away just a year and a half ago, making Sidhu the only son of the family.

The Punjabi music industry, already reeling from multiple tragedies this year, has once again been plunged into mourning. In October, singer-actor Rajvir Jawanda died following a brutal road accident on October 8, and celebrated folk artist Gurmeet Maan passed away on October 10 due to heart complications.

Sidhu’s untimely demise marks yet another heartbreaking setback for Punjabi music in 2025.
