The buzz around Shaan reveals a surprising RECORD career stat: “I have sung for 25-26 newcomers…I sang the first song for Riteish Deshmukh, Zayed Khan, Harman Baweja…” refuses to die down. From social media chatter to box office projections, everyone in the industry seems to have an opinion — and the latest update only strengthens the conversation.
The Story So Far
Add as a preferred source on Google Shaan had a conversation with Komal Nahta about playback singing, his beginnings and a lot more. Often certain singers turn the voice of certain actors. But that never happened with Shaan.
The talented vocalist spoke about this aspect in detail. Shaan elaborated the reason behind it, "By the time I came in, the trend changed. There would be 6 songs, all sung by different playback singers.
It would add variety to the record." He pointed out, "Nowadays, I read on the internet that I suit Saif Ali Khan's voice. I would consciously sing in a way that would suit him. And he has a nasal base tone.
Accordingly, I sang 'Kuch To Hua Hai' in Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003)." Shaan continued, “It’s important to know whether the narrative is urban or what the personality of the part is like. I was explained that Aamir Khan portrays a flamboyant part in Fanaa (2006) who’s trying to impress the girl. That’s how I sang ‘Chand Sifarish’.
I would have sung it differently if the hero was bhola.” He then disclosed, "The other day, I made a list and I realized that I have sung for 25-26 newcomers! But if I mention how many of them went on to become very popular heroes, toh fir apne hi pair pe kulhadi maarne waali baat ho jayegi! Many of them didn't exactly quite make it major." Shaan further said, "I started with Dino Morea and was then Arjun Rampal's first voice.
I also sang first track for Riteish Deshmukh, Zayed Khan, Harman Baweja and many others (smiles)." Komal Nahta remarked that it happened as he has a young voice. Shaan replied, "I don't know. Or maybe I was just always available (laughs)!" On a serious note, he said, "I'd like to believe that I bring in a young vibe." Immediately, he joked, "Abhi bhi main jab gaata hoon, toh mic pe 22 ka hi hoon!"
