Sonu Nigam was mired in controversies in the earlier half of 2020 after he accused T-Series' Bhushan Kumar of being the "mafia" in the music industry.
Singer Sonu Nigam has revealed that he does not want his son Neevan Nigam to be a singer and has also "got him out of India", revealing that his son is interested in gaming and lives in the UAE.
In an interview with Times Now, Sonu said that he does not want his son to work as a singer in India after previously expressing his disappointment at the music industry in the country and the "authority" of one giant music label.
Sonu said, "Frankly, I don’t want him to be a singer, at least not in this country. Anyway, he does not live in India anymore, he lives in Dubai. I have already got him out of India. He is a born singer but he has another interest in life."
He further added, "As of now, he is one of the topmost gamers of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). He is number 2 in Fortnite. There is a game called Fortnite and he is the top gamers in the Emirates. He is a brilliant child with a lot of qualities and talent. And I don’t want to tell him what to do. Let’s see what he wants to do himself."
Sonu was mired in controversies in the earlier half of 2020 after he accused T-Series' Bhushan Kumar of being the "mafia" in the music industry.
"Tune galat aadmi se panga le liya, samjha (You have messed with the wrong person, understand),?" he said in a long vlog shared on social media.
Sonu claimed Bhushan planted articles about him in the media and persuaded musicians to give interviews against him. The singer warned him to back off or he would expose him.
Though Bhushan did not comment on the matter, his wife Divya Khosla Kumar had responded to Sonu's accusations with a long video message.
She had also written on Instagram stories, "Today it’s all about who can run a good campaign.... im even seeing people being able to sell lies & deceits with their strong campaigns.... #sonunigam. Such kind of people know how to play with the minds of the audience ..... God save our world !!!"
