Sonu Nigam enjoys a fun jamming session with his father in the car
Mumbai, March 18
Singer Sonu Nigam is blessed with a voice that can leave anyone enchanted, but as a professional singer, he misses no opportunity to enjoy a fun jamming session whenever possible.
On Wednesday, he uploaded a video on his official Instagram handle where he was seen doing riyaz with a harmonium in the car.
However, he was not alone; the acclaimed singer was accompanied by his father, Agam Kumar Nigam, who is also a noted singer.
The father and son duo were seen creating a fun memory, utilizing their travel time to the maximum.
The singer shared a candid yet beautiful rendition of the track "Yeh Desh Hai Veer Jawanon Ka" from the 1957 film "Naya Daur" starring Dilip Kumar and Vyjayantimala as the lead.
Nigam's feed is full of such entertaining glimpses from both his personal and professional life.
Recently, he bumped into his old friend, actress Divya Dutta, during a flight.
The old buddies decided to turn the chance encounter into a musical journey.
Divya took to her official Instagram account and shared a candid selfie of the two from the flight.
Both of them flaunted their shy yet infectious smiles at the camera as they posed together.
Sharing a snippet of the meet on social media, Divya wrote the caption, "Wen u bump into your bestie..on flight..journey musical ho jati hai.hai na??? Big hug @sonunigamofficial."
Nigam is believed to have recorded more than 6,000 songs in over 32 languages throughout his career, including Hindi, Kannada, Bengali, Marathi, Telugu, Tamil, Odia, English, Assamese, Malayalam, Gujarati, Bhojpuri, Nepali, Tulu, Maithili, and Manipuri.
In addition to this, the singer has also released a number of non-film albums. Nigam even tried his hand at acting and worked in a few movies.
In 2022, Nigam was honoured with the Padma Shri, India's fourth-highest civilian award.

"Yeh Desh Hai Veer Jawanon Ka" - what a classic choice! It's refreshing to see a celebrity of his stature staying so grounded and connected to his roots and family. His father, Agam Kumar ji, must be so proud. True talent runs in the family.
6000 songs in 32 languages... Padma Shri well deserved! But honestly, I sometimes feel his recent social media content, while fun, overshadows discussions about his new musical work. Would love to see more focus on his upcoming projects. Just a thought.
The part about bumping into Divya Dutta on a flight and turning it into a musical journey is so relatable! It's these unplanned, joyful moments that make life. Their friendship seems genuine. Love seeing these behind-the-scenes glimpses.
Car mein harmonium! 😂 Only a true artist thinks like this. It shows his dedication. Also, singing a classic patriotic song with his father... feels very meaningful. This is the kind of positive, family-oriented content we need more of.
His versatility is astounding. From Hindi to Tulu and Maithili! It's a reminder of India's incredible linguistic diversity. He's not just a playback singer; he's a cultural ambassador. More artists should try to sing in different Indian languages.
