REVOLUTIONARY singer Rahman Mughal popularly known as Sarmad Sindhi was a popular Sindhi singer who died in a car accident on Dec 27, 1996. He sang all kinds of folk songs including the super hit ‘Tuhiji yaad Ji wari aa weer’, which became an anthem of his generation.

His lyrics focused on the problems faced by people living in the province such as ‘Sindh uchi aa Sindhi uchi aa’ (Sindh is great).

Now his brother, Ahmed Mughy, sings his songs. While Sarmad is not here with us anymore, his music and message live on.
