Amid roaring cheers, bright lights, and nearly 30,000 fans swaying to every note, Sonu Nigam’s Hubbali concert transformed into something far more meaningful than a musical night. It became a moment of kindness.
On Monday, the singer shared a touching video from the show, capturing an unexpected pause in the performance - one that revealed the heart behind the voice.

A young boy, lost and trembling in the crowd, found comfort not backstage, but right beside the man holding the mic.
A Frightened Boy Finds a Safe Place on Stage
The clip showed Sonu Nigam on stage with a visibly nervous young boy named Sri Sai, who had gotten separated from his family in a massive crowd of nearly 30,000 people. Instead of panic, Sonu chose melody.
With a gentle smile and reassuring presence, he guided the child forward, breaking into an impromptu tune to distract him from fear. The arena, moments ago thundering with music, softened into collective concern.
Sharing the video, Sonu wrote, “A scared and nervous Sri Sai after getting lost in the crowd of 30,000 in Hubbali last night. Not so scared or lost I assume after he found me (wink emoji).”
A Musical Announcement Like No Other
What could have been a routine security call became pure Sonu Nigam magic. Turning the situation into song, he sang, “Sri Sai aa jao, mummy papa isko le jao… iske mummy papa kho gaye, jaldi aake isko le jao”, prompting laughter and applause from the audience.
The crowd instantly joined the search, their cheers now carrying warmth instead of frenzy.
Laughter, Innocence, and Quick Wit
Keeping the boy engaged, Sonu joked, “Papa, mummy tumhare bina masti kar rahe hain, pata hai?” The child’s innocent reply, “Papa nahi hai”, momentarily stunned the singer. Recovering with humour, Sonu asked, “Papa, mummy nahi toh kaun aaya hai? Agar papa mummy nahi aaye toh hum kisko dhoond rahe hai?”
When Sri Sai softly said, “Chachu”, the singer instantly switched to playful theatrics, calling out, “Chachu, kidhar hai chachu? Hey chachu, chhod ke chale gaye chachi ke saath?”
He added, “Bade bhai ne zimmedari di tumhe bachche ki aur tum yeh kar rahe ho?”
The arena burst into laughter, turning worry into joy.
A Safe Reunion
Behind the scenes, the production team began searching. Soon, the child’s uncle was located. Sonu ensured proper verification before letting Sri Sai leave - a small but crucial gesture that reflected responsibility as much as compassion. The moment ended with applause that felt deeper than appreciation for a song.
