Sonu Nigam’s Memoir To Be Published Later This Year; To Share Personal, Undisclosed Details Of His Life

Sonu Nigam, who is one of the most popular playback singers of India is all set to tell his story in his memoir which will be published later this year. 

Publishers Bloomsbury India recently announced that the 47-year-old singer’s autobiography will share undisclosed details, anecdotes, and insights in his life.

Sonu Nigam said, “What I am going to go through while writing my autobiography sends chills down my spine honestly. Uncountable dynamics through a tedious, scandalous, emotional and spiritual life, need to be assessed and poured in the form of words. But I, on second thoughts, am sure my guts and courage will sail me through. Wish me luck.”

Sonu Nigam made his debut as a singer in 1992 with the song ‘O Aasman Wale‘ from the film Aaja Meri Jaan. He has songs like ‘Ye Dil Deewana’, ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’, ‘Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin’, ‘Saathiya’ and many other songs.

Sonu feels that it is tough to decide how much should one reveal in the memoir. “I remember a quote by George Bernard Shaw that I read in my English book in 9th Standard that said, ‘All autobiographies are lies’. I strangely agreed with the reasoning behind it elaborated in that lesson. I never knew then though that there ever would come a time in my life when I would be asked to write mine…,” Nigam continued.

“It’s exciting too, considering one actually gets to revisit the lanes and bylanes of ever-so-personal, undisclosed details of one’s glorious life, and grin furtively at some of the most unfathomable experiences one is fated to go through,” Sonu Nigam concluded.

Sonu Nigam has sung in many more languages than Hindi, like Bengali, Gujrarti, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, and Marathi.
