Tan Sri P. Ramlee tragically is stressed out, overweight, completely down and out with passion and had his spirit broken. The once rich and talented man had to do
almost any job he could including running mahjong tables and singing at
weddings and other functions to put food on the table for his family. He
had to live on only rice and eggs, it was truly a sad and heart aching moment to see P. Ramlee and his family at that state. On 29 May the year 1973 Tan Sri P. Ramlee died at the age of 44 from a heart attack and was buried at Jalan Ampang a Muslim Cemetery in Kuala Lumpur. On the day he died, there was no rice in his house and his wife Saloma didn't have any
money for his funeral he died hopelessly as a man who is broke and broken.
