Mumbai (UNI): Renowned Pakistan singer Abida Parveen has showered praise on Sonu Nigam saying no singer in India or Pakistan can match the talent of the Indian singer. Sonu, who performed recently with Parveen at the Royal Albert Hall in London, was appreciated after the event by the Pakistan singer, who is a rage in her country not only for her melodious voice, but for her edge over other singers in 'qawwali', sufi and devotional songs.

Sonu has been garnering fans in India and even in other countries with his voice doing magic in songs like 'Yeh Dil' from movie Pardes, 'Suraj hua maddham' (Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham), 'Piya Bole' (Parineeta), 'Aisa Lagta Hai' (Refugee), 'Saathiya' (Saathiya), 'Sandese aate hain' (Border) and 'Tu hi tu satrangi re' (Dil Se).
