His album Deewana, released by T-Series in 1999 has been one of the most commercially successful and celebrated albums ever in India.Sonu Nigam has hosted several shows like the Sa Re Ga Ma music show (1995-1999) which earned him a lot of popularity.Sonu has also sung for Kannada language movies as well as a variety of other Indian languages such as Bengali, Manipuri, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Maithili, Malayalam, etc.He has done playback singing for several Hindi movies such as Meherban (1993), Kasam Teri Kasam (1993), Gaddaar (1995), Jeet (1996), etc.He claimed to have gained wisdom and was himself amazed for having undergone changes in things such as his hairstyle, his anger outbursts, and his own name. However, Sonu came out of that phase and changed his name back to ‘Nigam’. Under the influence of numerology, he had altered the spelling of his name to the odd-sounding ‘Niigaam’.Sonu had frequently complained that he had been called a “bachcha” (a kid) in the film industry, which would cause him a lot of angst.
Sonu Nigam received training in music from Hindustani classical singer Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan.
