According to The Tribune's report, in the past, Manjit Singh Ferozepuria, a turban wizard, hit the headlines for tying his turban blindfolded. Singh, a resident of Malluwala village in Ferozepur district, could precisely complete the process, to the minute details, in just 22 seconds. Not just this, he garnered attention for performing the same on another person's head with his eyes folded by a cloth.

He also grabbed headlines during the international kabaddi match hosted by the Punjab Government in 2013. During the match, he straddled two motorcycles with a turban and this particular action of his was applauded by the gathered crowd. The match presented him an opportunity to teach Anantbir Singh, son of former Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal, the process of tying a turban.
