Born on July 30, 1973, in Faridabad.
The stage lights felt like a warm embrace to young Sonu, barely four years old. It wasn't a planned debut, but destiny had a melody in store. Accompanying his father to a show in Jind, a spontaneous moment unfolded.
The strains of Mohd. Rafi's 'Kya Hua Tera Vaada' filled the air, and little Sonu, without hesitation, lent his innocent voice to the timeless tune – a moment that unknowingly foreshadowed the countless Sonu Nigam song performances that would later captivate millions.
It wasn't just a song, it was a first note in the symphony yet to be written.
Under the tutelage of his father, Agam Kumar Nigam, the vibrant melodies of his Faridabad home soon resonated deeply within him. The intricate structures of classical music with the captivating melodies of Bollywood seep into his young soul. This nurturing ground laid the bedrock, igniting a passion that would resonate through many generations of Sonu Nigam song lovers.
Entering the music industry as an 18-year-old prodigy, Sonu Nigam dedicated himself to playback singing, refining his remarkable skills under the guidance of Ustad Ghulam Ali khan
This early dedication paved the way for a career defined by his astounding euphony and melody, hallmarks of Sonu Nigam's music.
Sonu Nigam's first brush with fame came with the poignant music notes of "Accha Sila Diya" from the 1995 film, Bewafa Sanam.
Today, this revered Bollywood playback singer has recorded over 6,000 songs in 32 languages, leaving an indelible mark on the world of music.
