Sonu Nigam Disguised Himself As A Homeless Old Man And Gave A Brilliant Message Through His Experiment.
Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around, you could miss some things that otherwise have the potential to change your life.
In this dog-eat-dog world where we’re constantly thinking about the future, we don’t realize that we might be losing out on beautiful moments in the present. Pause, look around, breathe and live in the current moment, don’t just exist.
Have you ever taken a deep breath and looked around, observed the little and beautiful things around you? Ever given it a thought that the little girl singing in that corner may have not eaten for days?
These are thoughts that maybe cross our mind, but in extreme stress, tension, and hurry, we tend to lose our humanity somewhere in this quagmire of worries.
Recently, something happened on the streets of Mumbai that halted the city that always moves. What was it?
Sonu Nigam dressed up as a homeless old man, sitting in one corner of Juhu with his harmonium, singing melodies. When he started singing, no one took notice, but slowly, as he gathered momentum with his music, so did people stop to take notice.
He had a simple tagline beside him: Khojna kya hai, khushiyan yahaan hai (Where are you searching for happiness, it’s right here). The beauty of his thought and his music moved those listening to him.
Some recorded his voice, some stood beside him and asked him if he had eaten anything since morning. That was the power of his music. His voice, that moved people.
Many times, we do come across such artists, but we fail to acknowledge them. If you have ever been that person, then stop today, take a deep breath, and acknowledge this man, who truly deserves a standing ovation for his great deed.
