Overview

  • In a video posted June 13, Sonu Nigam said his nerves are pinched, showed a shoulder bandage, and confirmed he has been undergoing MRI and CT scans to diagnose the problem.
  • He has been receiving regular physiotherapy and multiple medicines, and described physiotherapy as very painful.
  • Sonu says painkillers and prescribed muscle relaxants have made his throat feel heavy, which he says has lowered his confidence as a professional singer.
  • Despite the symptoms he performed recently and has told fans he will honour the June 27 Mumbai concert while remaining under medical supervision.
