Sonu Nigam's Viral Reaction: Not What You Think!
17 Sep
Summary
- Sonu Nigam clarified a viral video showing him reacting to a song.
- The clip was edited to appear as a critique of Salman Khan's singing.
- Nigam stated his reaction was to a performance by Pakistani singer Hadiya Hashmi.
Singer Sonu Nigam has addressed a viral video that appeared to show him mocking Salman Khan's rendition of 'Main Hoon Hero Tera.' The widely circulated clip was edited, juxtaposing Salman Khan's singing with Nigam's old reaction. Nigam, however, clarified that his expressive gestures and comments were originally made in response to a performance by Pakistani singer Hadiya Hashmi.
Nigam reposted the edited video on Instagram, explaining that his reaction was to "a Pakistani little girl singer." This explanation aligns with earlier accounts that identified the original clip as Nigam's response to Hashmi's 2020 performance of 'Bol Hu.' He had reportedly been moved to tears by the young singer's rendition.
The resurfaced and edited video gained traction amid an ongoing online discussion about the song 'Main Hoon Hero Tera.' This discussion began after an omission of composer Amaal Mallik's credit in a social media post by Salman Khan Films, which was later corrected. The ensuing debate saw accusations and defenses from various parties involved.
