Renowned playback singer Shantanu Mukherjee, popularly known as ‘Shaan,’ was in the State Capital to grace the Rajyotsav celebrations in Nava Raipur Atal Nagar.

In a media interaction at Mayfair Lake Resort, Shaan discussed the evolving scenario of the Indian music industry. He highlighted the increasing competitiveness and the challenge of constantly delivering fresh and engaging music. “Earlier, a singer could gain popularity with just a couple of songs. Today, every new song is a challenge,” he said.

The singer reminisced about his previous performances in Raipur, Bilaspur, and Korba, expressing his gratitude for the warm reception he received from people of Chhattisgarh. He particularly praised the state’s rich cultural heritage and its lush greenery, a stark contrast to the urban landscape of Mumbai. For his Rajyotsav performance, Shaan is set to debut a new song, ‘Pragati Ke Path Par Chhattisgarh...’, a high-energy and soulful track. Shaan, hailed as the ‘Golden Voice of India,’ has made significant contributions to Indian cinema, lending his voice to numerous

Hindi, Bengali, Kannada, and Telugu films. His romantic songs, particularly from the 2000s, have become timeless classics.

Some of his iconic songs include ‘Musu Musu Haasi Deu’ from ‘Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi,’ ‘Woh Ladki Hai Kahan’ and ‘Koi Kahe Kehta Rahe’ from ‘Dil Chahta Hai,’ ‘Ghanan Ghanan’ from ‘Lagaan,’ and “Mere Samnewali Khidki Mein’ from ‘Dil Vil Pyar Vyar.’ With his soulful voice and captivating stage presence, Shaan still continues to enchant audiences.
