Sonu Nigam shares his experiences ....

Sonu recently shared a candid conversation with Komal Nahta on ETC Bollywood Business.

Talking about the role of his parents in his success, Sonu said, “Main apne maa baap ka sapna hu. Whatever money I earn, I give it to my father. He has invested my money smartly and secured my entire life. He has asked me that if I ever want to stop working, I can. I won’t become poor.”

Sonu struggled his way up to the music industry with no godfather.

Speaking about one of his experiences, Sonu said, “In my struggling days I sang two songs at T-series Studios … I had a lot of expectations for its selection. A month later, when I went to their office, I got to know that the song was given to S.P. Bala Subramaniyam and Manu Chitra. Main T-series ke office se nikal kar phoot phoot ke rone laga. Main already hatash tha,thak gaya tha main,dhakke kha kha ke,logo ki galiyaa sun sun ke.”

Elaborating it furthe,r he said, “In those days male singers were mostly very flirtatious in nature. Isiliye sabse zyada struggle male singers ko karni padti thi.”

On the personal front, Sonu revealed that, “I’ve had lots of affairs and relationships in my life. There were times when my dad used to accompany me to a concert or tour and … there always was some girl I had to meet! Har jagah pe ek ladki hua karti thi.” Sonu recounted, bursting into laughter.

Sonu went ahead and confessed that ‘I am scared of cockroaches’ and ‘Flight me koi movie me emotional scene chalta hai, toh main ro padta hu.’
