Bhubaneswar, Nov 23: Overwork and excessive oral stress endangered Humane Sagar’s life and ultimately led to his death, said Liza, a core member of Sagar’s Troupe.

Adding more concern to the accusation of Humane’s bereaved mother on the event manager and show-makers, Liza said Sagar died due to excessive strain on his body and voice, despite his acute illness.

He was being escorted onto the stage for performance while he was not even in a condition to walk, due to his broken health, Liza alleged.

The controversy over the death of Odia singer Humane Sagar intensified after music director Prem Anand in a first shed light on it & was also backed by Humane’s family members.

Worth mentioning, Liza was one of the key anchors of the Humane Sagar’s troupe. However, she was reportedly ousted from the team following her rift with the show-managers.
