On his birthday today, fans of Sonu Nigam should demand only one resolution from him, to reinitiate with a new vigor the playback singing in the Hindi films, which he has slowly abdicated for the new singers. The silken flow in his voice, which has given one of the all time hits for the Indian music aficionados, should not be deprived to them as his voice has carved a niche for itself.

While he has hit the street with a gusto and has been interacting with his fans around the world, a dream of anybody who aspires to be a singer to set the stage on fire, an underlining feature of these performances is that whatever is performed through these platforms is the oeuvre which already exists in the memory of the public. A playback singer rarely launches a new song on the stage as it is difficult to control the orchestration, and this could be the reason precisely why most of the singers fall back upon there hit songs to establish chemistry with the audience when they perform live.

Sonu Nigam has been blessed with the rare distinction of having a full house in of all the places Germany where his concert went beyond the stipulated time and he brought the audience down. The range and the heights to which Sonu has reached has to be seen in his rendition of the title song in DHARM " Jago Bhai Bhor", could rank as one of the most evocative invocations to the power of the almighty. Had this film been a commercial hit, this song could have had a multitude of repeat broadcasts on all the FM music channels in the country.

The manner in which he has sung the song, by his sheer vocal power accompanied by the play of a sarangi in the background and no other musical instruments but just a beat on a acoustic instruments, is what salivates the excitement of the listener for more such renditions and Sonu should not deny the audience the magic that he has reached in his vocal journey.
