The Video has irrupted with immense positive response and become viral. One of the many fans Vasudev Sukhani impressed by his singing requests Shiv if he was ever to visit  Chicago any time in near future, he would love to listen to him live. That’s s a great honor.

Grand Father Sh Bhagwan Das

His name is Vasudev and a Sindhi. My Dad was also named Vasdev Singh. I have also observed that many Sindhis have a popular common name in ‘Vasudev’.

Now I understand that my grandmother Karam Devi was just 19 at the time of birth of my Dad. Sadori Bai was her Sindhi parental name. She must  have a great influence on my 44 yrs old Grand Dad, who had married second time in quest for a male child as per prevalent norms. My Grand Dad Mr Bhagwan Dass must have consented  to name the precious child as Vasdev Singh on other community popular name.
