Village boys with guns. Hits ordered from distant shores. 

Flashy music videos. Social media hype. 

Music stars in the crosshairs. Celebrity-like gangsters. 

Drugs. Politics. Entertainment. Terror. 

 

From the killing of Sidhu Moosewala to attacks linked to Gippy Grewal, and threats to Salman Khan, violence is no longer an act—it is a message. Punjab’s organized crime has mutated into cartel-style international syndicates, with wanton killings and an endless cycle of revenge. 

 

Gangs of Punjab enters this ruthless underworld, tracing the rise of men who blur the line between outlaw and icon. Their rise comes at a deadly price, leaving behind a trail of bodies; but their fall is as dramatic and often fatal, sometimes at the hands of close confidantes. For those who survive betrayals, the relentless Punjab Police lie waiting.  

 

In this cat-and-mouse game, nobody walks away clean.  


Jupinderjit Singh, Deputy Editor at The Tribune, Chandigarh, is an award-winning investigative journalist celebrated for his crime reporting. Author of six books—which have been translated into multiple languages—he is best known for Who Killed Moosewala? (2023), a bestseller that examines Punjab’s deep-rooted violence through the lens of the singer’s murder.  

A recipient of the prestigious Prem Bhatia Young Journalist Award, he rediscovered Shaheed Bhagat Singh’s lost pistol and chronicled the find in a book. A creative spirit, Singh also writes short stories and poetry, and plays competitive chess.
