MUMBAI: She came into the limelight after pairing up with Sonu Nigam for her debut track ‘Singh Sahab the Great’. Teesha Nigam has had a dream debut since being launched by her older brother, the popular Sonu Nigam.
On her experience working with her sibling she said, “When I am in front of the mic and he is in the controlling room, he is a boss. Sonu knows what I am capable of and makes me overdo things until he does not get what he expects.”
Nigam started learning music at a very early age but is concentrating more on independent music. She cites her father Agam Kumar Nigam and brother as her inspiration. The talented newcomer also feels that it is high time that we look beyond something that is not Bollywood. “I think the independent music scene in India is improving very rapidly and with the platforms that the independent artistes have now been given, we might witness a shift in choices of the people very soon,” she explained.
