The actor shared: “I’ve been listening to Sharda Sinha’s songs since childhood. Her music holds so many cherished memories for me, especially around Chhath Puja. Her soulful voice brings the festival to life in a unique way, capturing the devotion and spirit of the celebration.”
“This year, Chhath Puja won’t feel quite the same without her voice filling the air. Sharda Sinha’s songs have always been a staple in our celebrations, and her absence will truly be felt.”
Acclaimed actor Manoj Bajpayee too had shared a farewell post for the late singer on his Instagram story, which read: “Farewell to Sharda Sinha ji, a true legend of Bhojpuri and folk music, whose voice celebrated Bihar's rich traditions.”
“From 'Kahe Toh Se e Sajna to her iconic Chhath Puja songs, her legacy will resonate forever. Om Shanti. Sharda Sinha #BhojpuriLegend,” he wrote alongside a picture of the singer.
