Sidhu Moosewala's parents have initiated legal action against Saga Music for releasing the singer's unreleased track 'Phantom' without their permission. The family claims the label proceeded without valid authorization despite requests to halt the release and seeks to protect Moosewala's legacy and rights. They have urged other artists and labels to consult them before releasing any of his songs. Saga Music shared partial documentation, stating payments were made for audio rights and production expenses. Moosewala, a popular Punjabi singer and former political candidate, was killed in May 2022.
