The post left fans emotional. A fan commented, “Thanks for a fitting tribute to a legendary singer who breathed his last in music.” Another one wrote, “Thanks for the tribute Amul… KK the legend.” “Always alive in our hearts,” wrote a fan.

On Thursday, doctor who conducted the autopsy confirmed that KK died due to a massive cardiac arrest. The doctor told PTI, “He had a major blockage in the left main coronary artery and small blockages in various other arteries and sub-arteries. Excessive excitement during the live show caused stoppage of blood flow leading to cardiac arrest that claimed his life. The vocalist had 80 per cent blockage in the left main coronary artery and small blockages in various other arteries and sub-arteries. None of the blockades were 100 per cent.”

The medical professional added, “During Tuesday’s performance, the singer was walking around and at times dancing with the crowd which created excessive excitement that caused stoppage of blood flow leading to cardiac arrest. As a result, KK fell unconscious and had a cardiac arrest. If CPR had been given immediately, the artiste could have been saved.”
