Garg had traveled to Singapore to perform at the 4th North East India Festival at Suntec, scheduled for September 20–21. Just a day before the tragedy, he had shared a warm invitation for fans, highlighting the festival’s focus on India’s northeast, featuring agri-products, craft items, tea experiences, dance performances, fashion shows, and evening music with rock bands and rappers.
Bollywood singer Shaan took to social media to pay tribute, sharing an old photo of himself with Zubeen. He wrote, “Zubin is truly a king!! Lived on his own terms… Left on his own terms. Once again I realised how I haven’t kept in touch with such a darling friend, such a warm, uncomplicated, pure-hearted gentle soul… We have so many crazy memories together, but all from a very, very long time ago… I guess I will meet him in another dimension someday… Cheers, Brother.”
