S P Balasubrahmanyam's demise is a loss to everyone of us. The music lovers, fans and cinema lovers were deeply saddened with the loss of a great personality. His final rites took place today at his farmhouse in Tamaraipakkam in Tiruvallur district, near Chennai. The Tamilnadu state government has joined the final rites and gave state honours to SPB.

Tamilnadu police gave a 21-salute as a honor and SPB's son Charan performed the last rites as per the Hindu rituals. SPB's body was not cremated but buried at the farm house.

SPB died of cardio-respiratory arrest on Friday and he recovered from Corona a week before his demise. A lot of fans thronged to the farmhouse to see their favourite singer for one last time.
