Sonu Nigam welcomes son Nevaan's debut as a music artist with short film Slide

Bollywood singer Sonu Nigam marked the start of his 19-year-old son Nevaan's music career with an emotional social media post. Nevaan's entry into the industry was announced on Diwali by Sonu and his wife, Madhurima Nigam, through the short film Slide.

In his post, Sonu recalled how Nevaan was once shy about singing even in front of his father, and described his growth in singing, fitness and dance. Nevaan now spends up to 16 hours a day on vocal exercises under his vocal coach and has recorded one-take performances in the studio with producer Poo Bear.

Nevaan developed the concept for Slide and co-directed it with Alexander Cobian, while The Audibles composed the music. Sonu also thanked fans for their affection towards his son and asked for their blessings as he begins this new chapter.
