Sunny amazed the audience as well as the judges right from the audition rounds. Talking about the same, he confessed, “Next minute when I received the golden mix, it was an unbelievable moment. I got mics during both the audition rounds.”

Sunny also expressed his happiness on proving his mother wrong who he said had never imagined that this dream would ever come true. “I was very happy because I had fought with my mother to come here. She was against the idea of, me leaving everything and doing this show because of the financial crisis and she was correct, too. My mother always said that you won’t be able to go ahead because you need money for all this.”

Sunny further said that he thought he would be kicked out in the audition rounds itself, let alone win the show. But he remained adamant and strong-will brought him to the Indian Idol 11 stage and he ultimately won the show and cash prize of Rs 25 lakh. Veteran singer Amit Kumar has also signed Indian Idol 11 fame contestant Sunny to sing his first song.
