Shaan's son debuts in theme song for Yash Raj Films

Mumbai, Aug 18 (IANS) Singer Shaan’s son Shubh has marked his debut with his father in a theme song for entertainment company Yash Raj Films (YRF). The 11-year-old will be crooning to the track penned by Shaan and composed by band Superbia comprising him, Gourov Dasgupta and Roshin Balu.
The video, which has been made by YRF for their web series Sex Chat with Pappu & Papa, showcases moments that boys spend with their fathers.
“When Ashish Patil ( Head of Y-Films) shared the idea of having an ‘ode to papa’ song in ‘Sex Chat with Pappu & Papa’ we jumped at the idea. But we were short on time, so I literally wrote the lyrics while we were composing the song. Getting Shubh (my younger son) to sing was pretty convenient,” Shaan said in a statement.
The “Hey Shona” crooner says he is very proud of both his sons Soham and Shubh.
“I drew from the thought that like me, most sons want to be like their father. As a Papa, I’m very proud of both my boys and I can’t stop gushing about how soulfully well my Shubh has sung this song,” he added.
Earlier, singers Neeti Mohan, Shekhar Ravjiani and Shaan paid a tribute to the Indian cinematic legend Kishore Kumar ahead of his 87th birth anniversary which falls on Thursday.
Kishore Kumar, who was born as Abhas Kumar Ganguly, started his career in the field of acting, with Shikari in 1946. In 1948, music director Khemchand Prakash gave Kumar a chance to sing several songs.
Shaan said that he had grown up listening to Kishore Kumar’s songs. “He was and is an inspiration for youngsters who dream of making a career in the music industry,” he said.
