Punjabi singer and songwriter Arjan Dhillon has stepped forward to support the family of late international kabaddi player Gurjeet Singh “Toot”, visiting his family and reportedly offering financial assistance following his death.
Dhillon Visits Toot’s Family
Arjan Dhillon recently visited Gurjeet Toot’s family to pay his condolences and stand by them during a difficult period. The singer reportedly spent time with the bereaved family and offered emotional support following the kabaddi player’s death.
The visit has attracted attention among fans of both Punjabi music and kabaddi, particularly because of Dhillon’s earlier association with Toot.
₹5 Lakh FD Reportedly Made in Daughter’s Name
According to social-media reports, Dhillon has reportedly arranged a fixed deposit of ₹5 lakh in the name of Gurjeet Toot’s daughter.
Reports further claim that he also provided ₹50,000 as immediate financial assistance to the family. If confirmed, the FD could provide a measure of long-term financial security for Toot’s daughter.
However, the exact details of the financial assistance have so far been circulated primarily through social-media posts, and an official statement from Dhillon confirming the arrangement has not been independently established.
Gurjeet Toot’s Legacy in Kabaddi
Gurjeet Singh “Toot” was known as an international kabaddi player and had represented Punjab in the sport. He also played kabaddi internationally, including in countries such as Canada and England.
His death left the Punjab kabaddi community mourning the loss of a player who had built a name for himself both in India and overseas.
A Gesture Beyond Condolences
Dhillon’s reported assistance has also sparked discussion about the role celebrities and public figures can play in supporting families of sportspersons after their deaths.
While condolence visits are common following a tragedy, financial assistance directed towards a child’s future can offer longer-term support to a grieving family.
For Toot’s family, the reported FD in his daughter’s name could therefore become a lasting form of assistance at a time when the family is adjusting to his absence.
Social Media Draws Attention to the Gesture
Videos and posts showing Dhillon with Toot’s family have been circulating online, with many users praising the singer for standing by the family.
The reported gesture has added another dimension to the tributes being paid to Gurjeet Toot, keeping attention not only on his sporting legacy but also on the family he has left behind.
