If you ever spotted <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=sonu+nigam&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Sonu Nigam</a> on the road, you would have recognised him, right? Maybe, even ask for an autograph or a selfie. 
But, would you still know it’s him if he wasn’t dressed as himself? 
 According to a <keyword id="725326" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Social-experiment">social experiment</keyword> done by the singer along with the popular <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=youtube&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Youtube</a> channel Being Indian, turns out neither would the people of Mumbai. 
 
Nigam dressed up as an aged beggar using prosthetics and makeup, sat in the corner of a busy street in Juhu and sang while playing the harmonium for hours and yet no one seemed to have a clue as to who he was. 
 
 
To add insult to injury, he started his performance by singing his own hit song ‘Har ghaadi badal rahi hai roop zindagi’ from the SRK-Preity Zinta starrer <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=kal+ho+na+ho&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Kal Ho Na Ho</a>. 
 
The talented singer that he is, he did manage to gather a small crowd around him, some of whom even recorded his performance while tjis one person went ahead and asked him if he's eaten anything and even gave him twelve rupees. 
 
On Tuesday, a video titled ‘The Roadside Ustaad’ was released on Being Indian’s Youtube channel which captures the whole experiment and the mixed reactions of people. 
 
At the time of publication, the video had over 50,000 views in a matter of hours.

But, as it turns out, Nigam is not the first one to try something like this. Fans of football will remember how a few years back, famed football <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=cristiano+ronaldo&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> took part in a similar experiment where he played football on the streets of Madrid in Spain in disguise. No one managed to recognise him either!

Remember what they say, the devil is in the details.
