The late singer Zubeen Garg had once expressed a heartfelt wish—that after his passing, people would sing his iconic song *Mayabini*. The 52-year-old artist, who tragically passed away on Friday in Singapore following a seizure while swimming, regarded the popular 2001 track as his “fantasy.” The song, which also features vocals by Kalpana Patowary, holds a special place in the hearts of his fans and the people of Assam.
### The Significance of *Mayabini*
In a touching old video shared by Just Assam Things on Instagram, Garg stated, “Ei gaan tu mur fantasy hoy. Moy jetia morim, gutei Axom’r ei gan tu gaabo lagibo” (This song is my fantasy. When I die, entire Assam has to sing this song). In another clip posted by GPlus, he emphasized the importance of the song, saying, “Moy morile eitu gaan he bajibo kintu” (When I die, this song should play). For Zubeen, *Mayabini* was more than just a song—it was a symbol of connection with his people.
### Fans Fulfill Zubeen Garg’s Final Wish
In a heartfelt tribute, hundreds of fans gathered outside Zubeen Garg’s residence in Guwahati on Saturday and Sunday. Before his mortal remains were taken to Sarusajai Stadium for public homage, admirers sang *Mayabini* together in emotional unison, fulfilling the late singer’s final wish.
Videos shared online capture groups of fans singing the evergreen song with deep reverence, reflecting the profound impact Zubeen had on his audience. The spirit of unity and respect echoed through the crowd as they honored his legacy in the way he had envisioned.
### Clarifying the Circumstances of His Death
According to reports, Zubeen Garg was swimming in Singapore when he suffered a seizure. He had gone for a swim with companions who were all wearing life jackets and returned to the shore safely on a yacht. However, Zubeen went back for another swim, during which the seizure occurred.
Zubeen Garg, widely admired as a singer, actor, and philanthropist, was in Singapore serving as the Cultural Brand Ambassador for the North East India Festival, which was scheduled for September 20-21 but was later canceled.
His untimely demise has deeply saddened fans across the region, who continue to keep his memory alive through music and heartfelt tributes.
