What Sonu said
Talking about Pardesiya, Sonu said, “It's a matter of good fortune that Pardesiya came to me. I've been working hard on my craft and that is why the universe is opening up beautiful opportunities for me.”
'I don't get average songs anyway'
He went on to add, "I do not sing for just anybody or anyone," Sonu claims. “But because of my bonding with so many companies, artists and composers, it's sometimes difficult to say no to them, even when you see the project might not be of the highest order. A good song is a good song, and thankfully people come to me when they have something good in hands and they value my contribution. I don't get average songs anyway, so I don't have to make an effort to choose too much. Good songs come my way.”
