One of the most loved singers in the country, Sonu Nigam, found himself in a sticky situation recently when a man chased him on stage during a concert. But despite running away from the man and trying to protect himself, Nigam did not stop singing and netizens mentioned how the singer did not miss even a single note of the song.
A video of the incident has now gone viral on the internet.
