The non-availability of a recent Punjabi number '3 peg' at a bar in the capital did not go well with a 23-year-old bouncer from Ludhiana as he allegedly killed himself for the song.

The angered bouncer, Deepak Tandon smashed a bottle on his head as the female DJ denied having the song on her playlist. Tandon had come to ELF Cafe & Bar in Hauz Khas with two of his friends - Aman and Vikky to celebrate New Year.

"Tandon was high and was bothering other customers in the cafe. Initially, he was warned, but then he started bothering the female DJ. He demanded a Punjabi song called '3 peg' by Sharry Mann. But, the DJ did not have it in her list. Despite several denials, he kept bothering the DJ," a senior police official told Mail Today. After several warnings, Tandon was asked to leave the caf and on his way out, he smashed a beer bottle on his head, said Rajiv Tiwari, general manager at the cafe.

He was then rushed to the hospital where he was declared dead. During investigation, it was learnt that the CCTV camera installed inside the cafe was non-functional.
