The internet has been buzzing with admiration for Sonu’s unwavering focus. One Instagram user remarked in Hindi, “Whatever happens, one must not stop singing.” Another commenter humorously referenced Arijit Singh’s praise of Sonu’s talent, stating, “Sonu Nigam can never go off tune!” Many expressed awe at how he managed to keep singing flawlessly despite the unexpected challenge, labeling him a legend.
Comparisons emerged between Sonu’s handling of the situation and a recent incident involving Nick Jonas, who fled the stage when a fan aimed a laser at him. Users noted that Sonu’s calm demeanor in the face of danger was commendable in contrast to Nick’s reaction.
However, the incident was not without criticism. Some users condemned the security team for their physical response, suggesting they could have simply escorted the man offstage instead of resorting to violence. Comments included sentiments like, “They shouldn’t have hit him,” and “Sonu could have asked them to stop the hitting; he just kept singing while they beat him.”
Ultimately, while Sonu Nigam’s ability to maintain his performance earned him widespread acclaim, the incident sparked a debate about the appropriate response to such disruptions during live performances.
