Punjabi singer Rajvir Jawanda is fighting for his life after a severe road accident near Baddi, Himachal Pradesh, on Saturday. His motorcycle collided with stray cattle, resulting in serious injuries. He was first taken to the Civil Hospital, where he suffered head and spine injuries and a cardiac arrest. He was then moved to Fortis Hospital in Mohali for more advanced care.
At present, Rajvir Jawanda remains on life support. Medical professionals report that his neurological condition is critical, with minimal brain activity and no substantial improvement despite extensive medical interventions. MRI scans showed hypoxic brain changes due to CPR during the initial treatment. Brain and spine scans indicate extensive damage to the cervical and dorsal regions, leading to severe weakness in all four limbs.
He continues to need prolonged ventilator support, and the overall outlook remains uncertain.
Several fellow artists and fans have been expressing their support and offering prayers for Rajvir Jawanda. Diljit Dosanjh, during his concert in Hong Kong, took a moment to ask the audience to pray for Rajvir, describing him as a beloved brother and a talented singer. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann visited the hospital to check on his well-being.
Rajvir Jawanda’s music career began in 2014. He gained popularity with his song “Kali Jawande Di.” He has also appeared in movies such as Mindo Taseeldarni and Subedar Joginder Singh. Before his music career, he served in the Punjab Police. He resides in Mohali with his family.
