Sonu Nigam dedicates his entire career to Rafi, and calls him his biggest inspiration.
If there is one singer who changed the course of romantic songs in Indian cinema, it was Mohammad Rafi -- who with his soulful voice gave Indian cinema an exemplar in terms of soulful music. From 'Ehsaan Tera Hoga Mujhpar' to 'Teri Aankhon Ke Sivaa', Rafi was the voice of every loving, romantic heart. Sonu Nigam, often considered the fifth of the five entities in Indian music -- Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Kishore Kumar, and Rafi being the other four, dedicates his entire career to Rafi, and calls him his biggest inspiration.
