Sonu Nigam

Sonu Nigam performing at the Phoenix Symphony Hall in Phoenix, Arizona on August 15, 2009

This is Sonu Nigam who performed at the Phoenix Symphony Hall this evening – for nearly 4 hours. Sonu is from India, works in Bollywood, and is what is known as a playback singer. Caroline and I had fantastic seats for the show, near the center in the 16th row. As he took the stage he opened with a song from Kal Ho Na Ho and went into another popular song, this one from Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. That set the stage as we swooned to the romance of two of our favorite mushy love songs. Sonu’s songs have graced some of my favorite Bollywood films such as The Legend of Bhagat Singh, Dil Chata Hai, Main Hoon Na, and Om Shanti Om. Sadly we missed Asha Bhosle on her tour to Phoenix last year but we did get to watch Alka Yagnik and Kavita Krishnamurthy during their tours of America in years past. Now if Andy Lau would come to Phoenix for a concert!
