Singer Sonu Nigam received widespread attention and appreciation after videos showed him assisting a lost child during his Deewana Tera concert in Hubballi amid a crowd of nearly 30,000 people.
The incident, which Sonu Nigam shared on his Instagram account, occurred when a young boy named Sri Sai got separated from his family while attending the show. In the clip, the singer paused briefly during his performance to comfort the visibly nervous Sri Sai and guided him toward the front of the stage. To keep the child calm, he made an impromptu musical announcement, turning the search for the boy’s family into a melodic moment.
Sonu Nigam sang, “Sri Sai aa jao, mummy papa isko le jao… iske mummy papa kho gaye, jaldi aake isko le jao” (Sri Sai, come here… mummy and papa please take him, his parents are lost, come quickly and take him), which drew laughs and applause from the audience.
Sharing the video, he wrote, "A scared and nervous Sri Sai after getting lost in the crowd of 30,000 in Hubballi last night. Not so scared or lost, I assume, after he found me."
During the interaction, Sonu Nigam also engaged the boy in light-hearted conversation to ease his apprehension. At one point, he teased, “Papa, mummy tumhare bina masti kar rahe hain, pata hai”, to which the child replied “Papa nahi hai.”
When the boy said he was with his “chachu” (uncle), Sonu used the microphone to playfully call out for the uncle, prompting further laughter from the crowd.
Meanwhile, the concert’s production team initiated a search and was eventually able to locate the child’s uncle. Sonu Nigam ensured the reunion was confirmed before allowing Sri Sai to reunite with his family backstage.
Sonu Nigam is currently touring India with his Deewana Tera concert series, which began in late 2025 and has included performances in cities such as Guwahati, Jaipur and Indore. His next scheduled show is in Lucknow on February 14, 2026.
