Singer Masoom Sharma Booked After PU Event Death
A singer named Masoom Sharma is in trouble with the police because he sang a song at a school event.
The song, 'Chambal Ke Daku,' is now being looked at because a student was killed that night.
The police think the song might have encouraged violence, and they're checking to see if it broke the rules.
Even though the event had permission, it was supposed to avoid songs that might cause problems.
Now, the singer is facing charges related to the student's death and the song's influence.
Singer Masoom Sharma was booked by Chandigarh Police for allegedly promoting violence.
