COLOMBO/LUDHIANA: Celebrity singer Ishmeet Singh from Punjab drowned on Tuesday in a swimming pool at a resort in the Maldives where he went to take part in a concert, plunging the music industry into a gloom.

Gurprinder Singh Sodhi, father of 20-year-old Ishmeet, who shot to fame by winning the Star India TV Voice of India contest in November last year, said at their home in Ludhiana that the event management company, which took his son to the Maldives, informed him at around 8 pm that the singer died due to drowning in the swimming pool of the hotel where he was staying.

The B.Com second year student of MNC college in Mumbai went to the pool for frolicking but fell into its deep end leading to his drowning.

Sodhi told reporters that they were surprised that their son had died due to drowning in the swimming pool. "He had never swam before us and we are not aware whether he could swim or not," an inconsolably sobbing father said.

"The TV channels announced his death at around 9 pm, the time when were expecting to see Ishmeet perform for the first time in the Maldives", Sodhi said.

He said Ishmeet had left Ludhiana on Monday for Chandigarh from where he went to Mumbai on way to the Maldives.

This is soo sad. Ishmeet was such a role model for our youth. I cannot express my sadness at his passing away. May his soul rest in peace and may his songs inspire youth for generation to come.
