Singer Sonu Nigam has also given his reaction to the controversy over the national language. Sonu Nigam says that ‘You have less trouble with the rest of the countries, who are taking more troubles in their own country?’ Sonu Nigam also said that ‘Nowhere is it written that Hindi is our national language’.
Recently, Sonu Nigam, who attended a program organized by journalist Sushant Mehta, was asked that a controversy has arisen regarding Hindi, calling Hindi the national language? You have sung in 32 languages, what do you have to say? On this Sonu Nigam said that “I don’t think it is written in the constitution that Hindi is our national language. Hindi may be the most spoken language.”
Sonu Nigam said that “Tamil is said to be the oldest language. There is a debate about this in Tamil and Sanskrit. People also say that Tamil is the oldest language in the world. You have less trouble with the rest of the countries, who are causing more trouble in their own country? Why are you doing all this? Whoever wants to speak, will speak. What’s the problem with that?”
Sonu Nigam said that “We have court judgments in English, we go on flights, there we talk in English. They don’t even talk to me in Hindi. It is not a good thing to impose something on anyone, English has also become a part of our life now. Anyway, there are a lot of messes going on, we should not create another mess.
