"Music is my life, my passion and my love. Music means the world to me."-Sunidhi Chauhan.

Sunidhi Chauhan is an accomplished Indipop and playback singer. Her life is often observed as that of `a princess locked in the pages of a fairy tale`. She has been considered as a new bubble in the world of Bollywood Music. Sunidhi Chauhan rose to fame with the song `Zindagi` under the banner of Ram Gopal Verma`s film `Mast`. The song went on to become the most attention-seeking song of that year.

Sunidhi Chauhan was born on 14th August in the year 1984. At the tender age of 4 years, she started her career in singing. From a very young age she started taking part in various competitions. Tabassum, a TV host in one such competition spotted this young brilliant talent. With her advice, Sunidhi`s family decided to shift to Mumbai in order to form a concrete career for Sunidhi. She achieved national recognition when the musical show "Meri Aawaz Suno" was telecast all over India through the National Television channel Doordarshan. In the programme she fetched the first prize, the "Lata Mangeshkar Trophy" for the best female singer in India.

"Meri Aawaz Suno" was the first and foremost television show of this genre during the year 1996. Sunidhi Chauhan got her first playback singing break with the film `Shastra`, which were followed by `Gang`, `Veergati`, `Dahek`, `Bade Dilwala`, `Raja Ki Aayegi Baraat`, Shyam Benegal`s `Samar` and Vidhu Vinod Chopra`s `Mission Kashmir`. The fact remains that, before entering into any music competition, she did not receive any kind of formal training in music. But after winning the competion in the nationally-telecast "Meri Aawaz Suno", legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar offered to train her.

Sandeep Chowta gave her the major first break in the film `Mast` and since then there has been no looking back for Sunidhi. She always possessed `a mature voice despite being very young`. Such talent and quality has always been a target of several criticisms. But, every bit of it was put to an end with the release of the movie `Chameli` and the song "Bhaage Re Mann" sung by her. Today she is reckoned as the most versatile singer after Asha Bhosle. Some famous songs sung by her are- `Ya Ali` from the film `Aap Ka Suroor`; `Dhadak Dhadak` from the film `Bunty Aur Babl`i; `Hey Shona` from the film `Ta Ra Rum Pum`; `Bhaage Re Mann` from the film `Chamel`i; `Mehboob Mere` from the film `Fiza`; `Deedar De` from the film `Dus`; `Dhoom Machale` from the film `Dhoom`; `Le Chale` from the film `My Brother Nikhil`; `Sajna Ve Sajna` from the film `Chameli`; `Right Here Right Now` from the film `Bluffmaster`; `Kaisi Paheli Zindagaani` from the film `Parineeta`; `Ishq Samundar` from the film `Kaante`; `Crazy Kiya Re` from the film `Dhoom 2`; `Ek Din Fursat` from the film `Zindaggi Rocks`; `Beedi Jalaile` from the film `Omkara`; `Tere Ishq Me` from the film `Supari`; `Pyaar Ki Ek Kahani` from the film `Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd`.; `Dil Mein Jagi Dhadkan Aise` from the film `Sur`; `Cash Meri Aankhon Mein` from the film `Cash`; `Sajnaji Vari Vari` from the film `Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd`.; `Aaja Nachle` from the film `Aaja Nachle`.

Sunidhi has also cut her solo album called `Aira Gaira Nathu Khaira`. This religious singer believes in God. Once she said, "God is my inner conscience; my intuition, my inner self, my guiding force and my angel who protects me. I have always had deep faith in the supreme power and it has never wavered at all. Once I had to sing a hi-pitch song for the movie `Mast` and my throat was really bad. It was my faith in divine power and my ability that helped to record successfully. Faith makes a lot of difference in life."

Sunidhi Chauhan has also bagged the honor of performing the English language song "Reach Out" in the opening ceremony of the 2006 Asian Games held at Doha, Qatar. She has also lend her voice for the songs in the Hindi-dubbed version of the Disney Channel Original Movie High School Musical. She has rendered the songs that were sung by Vanessa Anne Hudgens in the English version.
