The special recognition by the Haryana Government was conferred upon Sonu Nigam for his efforts and achievements in the Arts and Culture sector.
A source close to the singer says Source close to Sonu says, "Sonu is very humbled at receiving this honor. Everyone knows how he worships his father, he actually insisted his father and chacha, to accompany him to the award function as because of them that he has his roots in Haryana. The interesting part of the occasion was Chief Minister Mr Manohar Lal insisted that Sonu sing for the audience in the midst of the award function, before he gives the award to him. Public went hysterical and Sonu went on to oblige them all with his voice."
