Popular singer, Sonu Nigam, described one such experience when Lata Ji performed at the Royal Albert Hall in London. “Lataji was a little taken aback when she was offered the chance to perform in the Royal Albert Hall. It was one of the most prominent venues in the world, and performing there was a source of pride for any singer. The first Indian vocalist to play at the Royal Albert Hall was Lataji. It was a privilege not only for her but for all Indians”, Sonu Nigam stated.
