Lilting voice of Sonu Nigam cast a spell, at Maharaja College grounds that was jampacked with audience at Manaranjana Dasara in the city on Thursday. With this curtains were also drawn on ‘Manaranjana Dasara’.
The gifted singer he is, Sonu who has also given several hit numbers in Kannada didn’t disappoint his fans who clammered for Kannada songs. He had just finished rendering ‘Zoobi dubu...’ from ‘3 Idiots’ and pat resumed with ‘E sanje yaakagide..’ from ‘Geleya’.
Obviously, one couldn’t stop youngsters from shaking their legs. He went on to sing several other chartbusters like ‘Nee sanihake bandare...’ from ‘Maleyali Jotheyali’, ‘Neene neene... from his first ever Kannada album ‘Neene’, ‘Ninnindale’, from ‘Milana’ and of course ‘Anisuthide Yako Indu...’ from ‘Mungarumale’ that firmly cemented his position in Kannada filmdom too.
Clad in black and white tad resembling a british officer, Sonu sang ‘Rang de basanthi chola...’ from “The legend of Bhagat Singh’ that is still rated among the best songs from his stable. Medley of songs like ‘Mere sapnon ki rani...’, ‘Bholo shivashankar...’, ‘Bachna ae haseeno..’, ‘duniya tere peeche...’ proved a perfect treat for young and old alike who couldn’t stop themselves from applauding, truly it was Sonu’s magic.
How can he forget the title track of ‘Saathiya..’ Sonu sang it to the thunderous applause of the gathering.
He not only sang but also showed his skill on dancing too making ample use of the dais. Meanwhile, he was taken aback when a frenzied young girl made a sudden appearance on the stage hoodwinking the cops. Sonu appealed to the cops to let her go free, even as she was lifted off the stage. However, it couldn’t stop that girl from going berserk who continued to enjoy the evening, dancing according to her whims and fancies. Earlier, noted Kathak exponent Nirupama Rajendra performed giving a cultural treat. Unlike the previous days events, Sonu’s live concert saw huge flow of his fans that also included VIPs families.
