The audience did not get such a song for a decade

It is not that Chamkila alone gave birth to all such songs. Romanticism has always been present in Punjabi folk songs. However, it was said that Chamkila crossed all Lakshmanrekha. Allegedly he openly included those words in his songs. Which was behind the scenes till now. Swarna Tehan said, ‘After Chamkila’s murder, no Punjabi singer sang any obscene song for almost a decade. Although there was no internet then. Chamkila’s songs were heard only by people who attended her Akhara (stage shows) in the village. Today, more vulgar songs are being sung and delivered door-to-door through the Internet.

So fame is the reason to become an enemy of Chamkila?

Their rivalry in Punjab’s music industry is also considered to be one of the reasons behind Chamkila’s murder. Chamkila started her career on stage as a well-known folk singer. He used to write songs. But, someone else has been seen as the face of those songs. But, when Chamkila gets recognition, the songs are her voice and her face. Even before a decade has passed, Chamkila has become the biggest face in folk music. It is said that other folk artists did not get stage. So who killed Chamkila? His song is his biggest enemy in the industry, or pro-Khalistan organizations? These questions may never be answered.
