There is a fake account on X (formerly Twitter), impersonating himself as Sonu Nigam. The handle is called Sonu Nigam Singh and most people thought that it’s actually Sonu’s real account. However, the singer has now clarified about it. He shared a screenshot of this account on Instagram and clarified that he’s not on X. He also called this alarming and expressed concern over his safety and his family’s safety which could be endangered because of this.
Sonu wrote, “I am not on Twitter or X. Can you imagine a single controversial Post from this Sonu Nigam Singh, can put me or my family’s life in danger? Can you imagine to what extent this man has been playing with my name and credibility? For no fault of ours. And the press, administration, government, law, who know about this, are all Quiet. Waiting for some thing to happen and then convey condolences. Thank you.”
Fans came out in Sonu’s support as soon as he expressed this. A user said, “This needs to be dealt with legally, specially considering the fact that he has been warned many times. You should file a formal complaint and see to it that he’s penalised.” Another one said, “He has been using your name since lockdown after multiple reports he changed his username and added Singh but continues to put controversial content & people think it’s you.”
For those not in the know, Sonu had quit X in 2027 due to the respect for freedom of speech. The singer has always been very honest and vocal about his opinions. Meanwhile, Sonu recently got a spasm while performing live on stage and yet managed to pull it off. He expressed that ‘Sarasvati ji holded his hand’, thus he could manage.
Meanwhile, Sonu recently performed at the Open Air Theatre in President Droupadi Murmu‘s estate on the occasion of of Rashtrapati Bhavan Diwas.
