Sonu Nigam collaborates with transgenders in '6 Pack Band'

Singer Sonu Nigam, who has collaborated with the transgender band named '6 Pack Band' for a song, says that perception of Indian society towards the community is changing.

"People are appreciating the song and this indicates that even society is ready. Right from our first press conference, none of them frowned about what we were doing," Nigam said in an interview.

"Things are changing now. And instead of preaching or moving around with a flag, it's about working with them. We have worked with them and made them business partners; that is how they can progress," he added.

When the '6 Pack Band' announced their first song, 'Hum Hain Happy', Nigam had supported the band at the event. Now he features in the song, 'Sab Rab De Bande' which is a more serious song and talks about the discrimination against the community.
