Recently, playback singer Sonu Nigam revealed that he performed two back-to-back three-hour concerts on the same day at the Sydney Opera House. He made the revelation on the latest episode of the podcast Game Changers: The Music Series. Speaking about what drives him on stage, the singer discussed the remarkable milestone that he achieved at one of the most iconic venues in the world.
"I have done three-hour shows, and then, just two hours later, I performed another three-hour show. I did that at the Sydney Opera House- one three-hour afternoon show and another three-hour evening show on the very same day," Sonu said.
He added, "I was able to do that because there is a lot of fire inside me. And within that fire, there is anger. There is compassion. There is hard work. There is consideration. That fire needs to exist. The important thing is that I am using it the right way. That is what matters, I have not let it consume me or make me irrational. In fact, when I was a child, I used to have a very bad temper."
Sonu Nigam is celebrated for his versatility and his ability to perform live on stage with a quality that is comparable to his own song in the film. Audiences often gush over his ability to produce such an output without chorus singers and the help of electronic equipment.
Sonu recently celebrated his birthday. At the time, he took to his Instagram account to thank fans for their birthday wishes and also wish his mentors and music teachers on the special occasion of Guru Purnima.
