Lucknow: After Ranu Mandal struck gold while singing “Ek pyar ka nagma hai” at the Ranaghat railway station in West Bengal, it is time for Vinod, an Uber driver in Lucknow, to grab attention with his mellifluous voice.
Vinod was humming a song when his rider requested him to sing a full song.
The driver went on to sing Kumar Sanu’s hit “Nazar ke saamne”, the hit number from “Aashiqui” (1990).
The rider recorded the song on his mobile and posted it on social media.
Within hours, the 56-minute clip went viral with the Uber rider saying: “Met an @Uber_India driver Vinod ji in Lucknow. He is an amazing singer and asked to sing a song for me after finishing his ride. Aur kya chaiye.”
