Sonu Nigam is undoubtedly one of the best singers that Bollywood has had after the legendary Kishore- Rafi period. Sonu started his career by singing covers of Mohammad Rafi songs. Nigam has shown versatility right from his initial songs like 'Yeh Dil Deewana' in 'Pardes' to 'O Saathi Mere' in 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns' and recent Mana Ke Hum Yaar Nahi in Meri Pyaari Bindu.
The singer has also sung many songs in other languages including Oriya, Tamil, Assamese, Punjabi, Bengali, Malayalam, Marathi, Telugu and Nepali.
Born on July 30, 1973, to Agam Kumar Nigam and Shobha Agam Kumar Nigam in the city of Faridabad, Sonu began his singing career at the age of four, when he joined his father Agam Kumar Nigam on stage to sing Mohammed Rafi's song Kya hua tera wada. From then on, Nigam accompanied his father on his singing appearances at weddings and parties. He moved to Mumbai with his father to begin his Bollywood singing career at the age of 18. He was trained by Hindustani classical singer Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan.
As the singer turns 44 today, we bring to you a collection of his melodious songs that show the versatile style of the singing wizard.
