Introduction: 1

 

My favorite celebrities list is long, from which some are Amarinder Gill, Satinder Sartaaj, Sonu Nigam, and so on.

Who this person is? and How you know about this person?

But here I would like to talk about a particular person who has not just touched my heart but also of billion other people with his hard work and determination. The name of the person is Ravi Singh, and he is currently the CEO of Khalsa aid, an organization known for humanitarian work worldwide. He is in his early 60’s despite that he looks hale and hearty by the grace of God.

What sort of life they had before they became famous? and How this person became famous?

I got to tell About THIS person for the first time when I was watching BBC news; this channel made a film about Ravi Singh in 2016 titled ‘The Selfless Sikh,’ which documented his journey to Northern Iraq, where he provides aid to Yazidi families who have fled their homes to escape the brutality of Islamic State. The film follows Singh into Iraqi Kurdistan’s heart as he delivers aid to Yazidi refugees in makeshift camps, barely 70 kilometers from the IS stronghold of Mosul.

why you like this person?

Not only this, he has done several other works that make every human being feel proud of him. Most importantly, regardless of his worldwide fame, he always speaks very softly with the people around him.

So, these are the reasons that why everyone respects him.

There are several personalities whom I like and would like to meet. One of them is Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, better known by his pseudonym Sidhu Moose Wala, who is an Indian singer, rapper, and actor related to Punjabi music and Punjabi cinema. He is one of the foremost successful singers. He’s not only famous in India but also in foreign countries. He has a melodious voice and I identified him when one of my friends told me to listen to his dollar song once when I was looking for some good Punjabi music, I became a diehard fan of his since then.

I have listened to all his songs and I never miss his new songs. My mobile and laptop are crammed with his songs. Although he’s successful today, many people consider his life to be filled with riches. But most people are not aware of his journey from rags to riches. The one thing why I really like about him is his humble and generous nature. I got to know from one of the articles that he does charity for cancer patients. He is a very down-to-earth person and always supports poor people. I think he’s an inspiration to several people across the country. If I ever get an opportunity to meet him I will instantly say yes. I feel he’s doing an exquisite job as a singer. I would wish him good luck for the longer term.
