Sonu Nigam
Genre: Pop/World/Reggae, Film/Bollywood, India
Hometown: India
The first thing that strikes you about Sonu
Nigam is his boy next-door face and his humility. Every week he used to regale
millions with his mega successful musical show on Zee TV , TVS ‘Sa Re Ga Ma’.
He is one of the few singers to have made it big both in films and on the
Indi-Pop circuit. This profile is an honest attempt at bringing this talented
artiste closer to his fans. Sonu Nigam was born on the 30th of July in
Faridabad Haryana. The family soon moved to Delhi where the singer spent most of his formative
years. His father’s (Agam Kumar) passion for music was soon imbibed by Sonu in
his early years and he soon began training under him. Sonu Nigam had his first
brush with fame at a tender age. Only three years old, while accompanying his
father for a show, Sonu gave his first public performance in the town of Jind by singing the
popular Mohd. Rafi song ‘Kya Hua Tera Vaada’ from Hum Kisise Kum Nahin.
