Fans lit candles across Guwahati, while the Assam government announced that Zubeen's mortal remains would be kept at the Arjun Bhogeswar Baruah Sports Complex in Sarusajai on September 21, from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, for fans and well-wishers to pay their last respects.
In a statement, the government said: “The Government of Assam, with deep sorrow, informs that the mortal remains of Shri Zubeen Garg—an artist larger than life, a cultural icon, filmmaker, and the eternal heartthrob of millions—will be kept at the Arjun Bhogeswar Baruah Sports Complex (Sarusajai Stadium) tomorrow, September 21, from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, for friends, followers, and admirers to pay their last respects. All are requested to extend their cooperation in ensuring that the final journey of Assam's beloved son is conducted with dignity and becomes a farewell to be remembered for all time.”

In a video message shared on Zubeen's official Instagram, his wife, Garima Saikia Garg, urged fans to maintain peace during the singer's final journey.
“I'm asking everyone to come together, Zubeen is finally coming home. When he was with us, you all showered him with love and blessings, and Zubeen always gave that love back. I hope his final rites are peaceful. The police and state authorities are fully supporting us during this time.”
She also responded to FIRs lodged against Zubeen's manager, Siddharth Sarma, defending his presence during the final journey.
“Siddharth, who has been like a brother to him from the start, will be coming along as well. You all remember that in 2020, when Zubeen had that severe seizure, Siddharth ensured his treatment and even brought him back from Mumbai by bus during lockdown. Whenever anyone criticised Siddharth, Zubeen always stood by him. I urge everyone to put aside any negative feelings toward him. Tomorrow, I'll need my people around me, and I need Siddharth's support—without him, I won't be able to handle everything.”
Meanwhile, the Assam government has declared a three-day state mourning in honour of Zubeen Garg.
