Bollywood Rockstar: Sonu Nigam

One evening, a few months back, me and Nishita Jha, the reporter I was working with, happened to have a flypast Sonu Nigam's home, car and a concert. We started off from his home-office, followed him in a taxi to the concert and got a chance to jump back stage. However,we never got the interview from him because we were probably too slow for the Mumbai-speed of the Bollywood Playback singing Rockstar.

But first. What does a Rockstar fill his wall with?






Quotes. Please note the time mentioned next to the date.

















The rockstar's vehicles.

There are his biggest inspirations - Rafi and friends.

There's also the bike that he uses to take his child for a ride, every day when he is in Mumbai.







And this SUV is his Riyaz machine. Sony Nigam drives his own car and why would a singer play music when he is driving? He sings his own songs.

Actually, Sonu Nigam uses the Mumbai gridlock traff*ck to good use. If he has a concert in Mumbai. He spends the hours behind the wheel preparing for the concert.

Pom Pom.
