Shocker: Music composers Jatin Pandit and his brother Lalit Pandit, who co-judged Ishmeet on Voice of India, say they were shocked by the news of Ishmeet's death.
Irreplacable loss: According to Jatin, I am shocked. He was an innocent boy. Ishmeet always had it in the back of his mind that he had to be the Voice Of India winner. I had even been to his house in Ludhiana and had food with his family.
It was destined!: Lalit revealed that he was working with Ishmeet on his album that is still in the composing stage and said the young singer's death is a very sad and terrible action of fate.
Young winner: Ishmeet had won the Voice of India singing contest, pipping his closest rival Harshit from Uttar Pradesh in a keen contest. He was given the winner's trophy by melody queen Lata Mangeshkar.
In mourning: Monty Sharma of Saawariya fame met Ishmeet just 15 days ago and the news of his death has come as a blow to the music director, who is currently judging the second season of Voice Of India.
