Some Lesser Known Facts About Abdu Rozik

Abdu Rozik is a Tajikistani singer, musician, boxer, and blogger. He holds the world record for being the smallest singer.

In childhood, Abdu was detected with rickets, a growth hormone deficiency which could be cured with appropriate medical treatment. However, his family could not provide him with the treatment as their financial condition was not so good. As a result, his body growth was stunted. During an interview, when he was asked whether his self-confidence was affected by his medical condition, he said,
Not really. I know a lot of people who have no job, no good family, and no money. I’ve had my fair share of struggles, too, but I am happy with where I’ve reached now. I shared the stage with the biggest composer in the world; what more do I want in my career? I’d like to inspire people who have a similar condition. I believe everyone is special in some way.”

I learnt the songs by listening to them on cassettes. Whenever I was stressed, I used to hum and sing to distract myself. Eventually, singing became a passion.
