The official music video, directed by Rahul Sud, featuring both Sonu Nigam and Natalia Lesz, forms the perfect accompaniment to the song with its spectacular visuals and subtle storyline. 

Says Sonu Nigam on the song, "Having been in the business of entertainment for more than 42 years now, and having had the pleasure of collaborating with the best talents and brains in our world, I have reached a point where only people and work that touches my soul, is what interests me." 

"Thus, collaborating with Natalia Lesz for Fire in the Sky has been a very lovely experience. A beautiful song and a talented co-singer, and the best part is this song is absolutely different from anything that I have been associated with as yet."

"Besides, I'm very happy that the song is being worked by Sunil at 9122 Records who I've worked with before and know him for almost 7 - 8 years. He really understands the business of international music."

He adds, “I haven’t been doing many collaborations at this point of time, I choose the people whom I want to work with and I’m very happy to have collaborated with Natalia for this song.”

When asked about a tag that he would give himself, “It has kept changing from every phase of my life. There was a time I used to call myself a seeker but I’m no longer a seeker as I’ve reached where I wanted to be.” 

Natalia Lesz says, “I’m so excited to be part of this special project and grateful to Sonu Nigam for sharing his incredible talent with me. It’s been a wonderful journey putting it all together – right from the song to the music video and I’m so happy the way it’s all turned out."

"Can’t wait to get it out to the world! Also a big thank you to Sunil at 9122 Records who’s been instrumental in making this project happen right through.”

Adding further, Natalia says “I loved the song from the begin, I heard the demo and fell in love right away. I was overwhelmed by the deep and meaningful lyrics of the song. Sonu had shared some songs that he had worked on so I had an idea of what he likes.

Says Sunil D’Sa, Founder, 9122 Records, “I’ve always been a huge fan of the great Sonu Nigam who is by far still the #1 voice in India! It’s been a privilege to work with him on this project and I can’t thank him enough for giving me this opportunity. Natalia Lesz has been an absolute pleasure to work with…a powerhouse of a talent: actress, ballet dancer and singer/songwriter." 

"Fire in the Sky is indeed a Special song from two Very Special artists. We at 9122 Records will do everything it takes to showcase the song in the best possible way to a global audience. This is contemporary pop music at its very best”.
