Singer Sonu Nigam turned reflective at the launch of “Ghar Kab Aaoge,” a key track from the Sunny Deol-starrer Border 2. The event took place in the frontier Tanot area of Jaisalmer, where Nigam addressed BSF jawans at the India–Pakistan border. He shared insights into the lasting impact of the iconic song “Sandese Aate Hai” from the classic 1997 film Border and how it became a pivotal moment in his career.
This Song Changed My Career
Reflecting on his journey, Sonu reminisced about recording “Sandese Aate Hai” nearly three decades ago, emphasizing its significance in reshaping his identity within the music industry. He remarked, “This song, this film, this team has been a very auspicious team for me. I still haven’t forgotten. We sang this song 30 years ago. I sang this song in 1995, and it was released in 1997. I used to receive songs, but not ones of such importance.”
Sonu further stated, “This song gave me the title of a serious singer for the first time. People believed in me because of this song.”
Ghar Kab Aaoge: A Grand Launch
The launch of “Ghar Kab Aaoge” was a spectacular event at the India–Pakistan border in Jaisalmer, complete with fireworks lighting up the auditorium near the Tanot Mata Temple. Attendees, including BSF jawans, contributed to a powerful and patriotic atmosphere.
The evening kicked off with a soulful performance of the classic Rajasthani folk song “Kesariya Balam Aao Ni Padharo Mhare Desh,” which was met with enthusiastic applause from the audience. Following this, the reimagined version of “Ghar Kab Aaoge” was unveiled, striking an emotional chord with those present. Cast members including Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, and others witnessed the heartfelt response from the audience.
The new rendition of “Ghar Kab Aaoge” has been creatively reworked by Mithoon, with fresh lyrics penned by Manoj Muntashir Shukla, while the original composition was by Anu Malik. The song features vocal contributions from Roopkumar Rathod, Sonu Nigam, Arijit Singh, Vishal Mishra, and Diljit Dosanjh.
A Heartfelt Tribute to Soldiers
Sonu Nigam also shared the song on Instagram, writing a heartfelt note: “Some songs aren’t just melodies; they are emotions that belong to the soul of our nation. 🇮🇳 Being a part of this song for Border 2 felt like a beautiful homecoming. It is rare for an artist to relive such magic, and I feel truly blessed that this journey continues. This one is for our brave soldiers and the families waiting for them.”
