Artist Preserves Zubeen Garg’s Footprints as Lasting Tribute to Music Icon
The legacy of late Assamese music legend Zubeen Garg has found a deeply personal expression through his preserved footprints, collected ahead of the public homage in Assam. Artist Diganta Madhab Goswami took the imprint from Garg’s Kahilipara residence, creating a symbolic keepsake to honour his extraordinary cultural influence.
The preserved footprints are more than just a memory—they embody continuity, serving as a bridge between generations. For fans and admirers gathering at Kahilipara and later at the Sarusajai Sports Complex, the imprint stands as a reminder of the singer’s remarkable journey and his inseparable bond with the people of Assam.
Diganta Madhab Goswami’s gesture transforms into a powerful tribute, ensuring that Garg’s music, story and artistic contribution remain alive for future generations. The footprints are expected to inspire young people to stay rooted in their cultural identity while celebrating the universal reach of his songs.
For Assam, Zubeen was far more than a singer. He was a cultural ambassador who sang in multiple languages, highlighted social concerns through his art and carried forward the artistic richness of the region. His footprints now stand not only on clay but also on the hearts of millions who grew up with his voice.
This symbolic tribute underscores Assam’s collective resolve to keep Zubeen Garg’s artistry alive—not just through his music but through timeless symbols of his presence.
