The tragic death of Rishabh Tandon, a well known singer and composer whose soulful voice and inventiveness touched countless hearts, is being lamented by the music industry and fans worldwide.
On October 21, 2025, he reportedly suffered a heart attack while celebrating Diwali with his family in Delhi. He was only in his early thirties.
Those who knew Rishabh, a man full of love, music, and dreams, were devastated by his unexpected death.
Soon after, friends, family, and admirers gathered for his funeral to say goodbye. Paparazzi Viral Bhayani quickly shared pictures and videos from the ceremony online, revealing Rishabh's loved ones in a state of deep sorrow.
One particularly tragic instance involved his wife Olesya leaning down to give him a farewell kiss, a tender display of affection that devastated hearts on social media.
