The Story in Brief
Singer Sonu Nigam sang Mohammed Rafi's 'Suhani Raat Dhal Chuki' while lying on the operating table during a surgery on his left ring finger. The 53-year-old told Hindustan Times the surgery was for a recurring growth linked to a bone condition. He said the impromptu performance happened because his doctor, a fan, was playing his songs in the OT, and he sang when instrumental tracks played. The video went viral, with Shreya Ghoshal, Vishal Mishra and fans wishing him well. That evening, Sonu was spotted attending a party in Mumbai.
The Indian Opinion
The video of Sonu Nigam singing in the OT has been called 'heroic' and 'singing through pain'. In reality, he says the mood was light, the doctor played his songs, and he joined in when the vocals dropped. Calling every spontaneous gesture a mark of 'dedication' ignores his own account. A more telling number: he had the same growth removed four months ago and it returned. Whether his arthritis requires a different treatment will matter more than any viral clip.
