Sonu Nigam Songs

Sonu Nigam’s list of songs is given here. Sonu Nigam’s best songs are mentioned here. The list of Sonu Nigam’s songs can vary from person to person. We have prepared the list after thoroughly researching the different websites for the songs and Sonu Nigam’s website too.

Sonu Nigam sandese aate hai

A patriotic song called Sandese Aate Hai can be found in the 1997 J. P. Dutta film Border. Roop Kumar Rathod and Sonu Nigam sang the song which was written by Javed Akhtar and composed by Anu Malik. One of the factors contributing to the film's success is the song which recounts the suffering of Indian soldiers.

In 1997 and 1998 respectively Akhtar won the Filmfare Award and the Screen Award for a heart-touching song that became the nation's anthem. He also received the National Film Award for the film. Sonu Nigam also received the Aashirwad Award and the Sansui Viewers' Choice Award for the song in addition to the Zee Cine Award. 

Sonu Nigam expressed disappointment that Rathod was not included in the award nominations claiming that Rathod contributed equally to the song's success. Sonu Nigam stated I knew the song was famous but I had no idea how large it was and how big it was going to be in a few months.

Sonu Nigam abhi mujh mein kahin

Abhi Mujh mein Kahin is a song from the movie Agneepath that was sung by Sonu Nigam and featured Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra in the music video. In a single line this song expresses a variety of emotions. It also speaks of the brief existence of love.

The type of song that Agneepath really needed to feel complete this one also features some poetry written by Amitabh Bhattacharya. Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin has good enough holding power to keep you interested as it plays even though it isn't catchy enough to become the next major chartbuster. 

The intensity of the song has been successfully communicated by Sonu Nigam's singing skill. The tune also makes excellent use of the violin.

Sonu Nigam har ek friend kamina hota hai

With this upbeat song Sonu Nigam came back in top form. The lyrics which include hatte katte ullu ke patthe and muft ka chandan ghis mere nandan are hilarious. Along with the concept a well-known cell phone service provider advertisement appears to have had a big influence on the phrase Har ek friend kamina hota hai. Sajid-Wajid a composer team has created a catchy tune that might not stick in your head for very long but is good for time being.

Sonu Nigam bole chudiyan

Jatin Lalit used the Chopra/Johar music library for Bole Chudiyan but you must keep in mind that while the genres may be similar the song is still pretty nice. You'll probably recall Lehja Lehja and the agreement of the male and female vocals in those specific song segments for a while after you listen. The lyrics in Punjabi seem to be rather average. Sonu sounds ok Udit sounds the best and Alka sounds about average.

Sonu Nigam meri duniya tu hi re

The song is sung by Sonu Nigam. The words were written by Sameer and Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy composed the music. The movie is Heyy baby. The movie was released in 2007

Sonu Nigam sau dard

Sau Dard which starts with the recognizable music from Humko Maaloom Hai. And indeed the song once more casts composer Anu Malik in a completely unique perspective because he puts a lot of effort into this second consecutively depressing tune. 

With his fourth excellent song in a row Sonu Nigam keeps outperforming himself. When this poetry piece is performed the audience can expect dead quiet.

A lovely song to hear from all angles whether it be in terms of interpretation lyrics or musicality. Keep an eye out for Suzanne's voice being used to create a chorus effect similar to an opera which enhances the film's grandiose appearance and atmosphere.

Sonu Nigam jaane nahin denge tujhe

One of Sonu Nigam's most impressive performances is in the movie 3 Idiots. In Jaane Nahin Denge Tujhe which again seems to be set in a situation where the buddies are supporting for each other and making sure that they don't fail in their goal of a better life ahead he adjusts the tone of his voice remarkably well.

Sonu Nigam kabhi khushi kabhie gham

The song was a huge hit. The song was loved by people. Sonu nigam’s magical voice with Lata Mangeskar’s voice made the song so good.

Sonu Nigam Deewana

Sonu Nigam launches album Deewana in 1992 and it went viral at that time. Many of the songs were superhit and sonu nigam became very popular.
