Sonu Nigam is set to return to the stage after a six-month hiatus. The singer, who was on bed rest following a knee surgery last March, will travel to the US and Canada next week for a musical tour. This trip will mark his first-ever tour with artiste Atif Aslam. In the past, the two singers have performed together at one-off concerts in Dubai, Malaysia and Singapore.
Sonu is excited about the trip and has been spending a lot of time rehearsing for the shows. “Words won’t suffice to express the feeling one has returned to his biggest bliss (music) after so long,” he says.
Atif, too, cannot wait for the tour to begin. “I am really excited about travelling with Sonu for concerts,” he says.
Atif is also looking forward to performing with the famous Bollywood playback singer. Sonu further shared that the purpose of the tour was to portray the great rapport the two artists shared.
Starting this month, Sonu and Atif will perform in New Jersey, Los Angeles, Houston, San Jose, Vancouver, Chicago and Austin. Sonu says though his earlier collaborations with Atif were brief, he enjoyed working with him. Their concert videos had also gone viral online.
“The purpose of this tour is to showcase the camaraderie between two artistes from different countries. In the past, our concerts together were great. Perhaps, that’s why there is such demand for Atif and me to perform together,” says Sonu.
The crowd was left mesmerised when the two took the stage to perform a duet. They began their act by singing iconic ghazal ‘Hothon Se Chu Lo Tum’ by Jagjit Singh.
The tour will kick off on September 16 and includes cities such as New Jersey, Los Angeles, Houston, San Jose, Vancouver, Chicago and Austin.
Fingers legs arms crossed 🙂
