Sonu Nigam once objected to the sound of the Azan waking him up in the morning.
There was a lot of criticism about that. Now, the same Sonu has set an example of harmony by stopping his song for the Azan. He has received praise.
The video of that concert has gone viral on social media. In April 2017, Sonu Nigam got into a controversy by making negative comments about the call to prayer.
At that time, there was a mosque in front of the house where he lived. Sonu’s comment added fuel to the fire. A controversy began.
he effects of that controversial comment have been lingering in Sonu’s life for years. It has not completely faded yet. However, this time, the singer has set a new example by removing the past Azan and controversy.
Sonu Nigam went to Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, to sing for the first time on October 26. His solo concert was at the SK International Conference Centre in Dal Lake.
However, a few days before the concert, Sonu’s old comments about the Azan spread again among the people of the region. There were calls for a boycott of the concert.
As a result, the attendance at the concert was not as expected. Many seats were empty. However, despite being labeled a ‘flop concert’, the singer won the hearts of the people there with his qualities.
He said, “The call to prayer will start now, please give me two minutes.” After the call to prayer, he resumed the programme. The audience also applauded Sonu Nigam.
