Bollywood singer Shaan was proved to be the proper fanboy of Arijit Singh. The singer who is notable for his tunes like ‘O Jaana’, ‘Chand Sifarish’,’Musu Musu Haasi Deu’, ‘Woh Ladki Hai Kahan’, ‘Jab Se Tere Naina’ ‘Behti Hawa Sa Tha Woh’ believes Arijit Singh is the last big exponent of the Indian music industry. Although there are rising pop sensations such as Guru Randhawa, Neha Kakkar, and Badshah for him, the talent of Singh is nothing compared to them. Shaan addressed the struggles garnering listener attention for his non-film music among fans in an interview with PTI. Let’s check out the complete reaction of the singer.
Shaan believes film music is hardly giving you the big singing star
The singer said in the interview,“All the big names today in music are either rappers or they have their own brand of music styles. Arijit Singh was probably the last big exponent who came in from film music. But a lot of them first got popular doing their own non-film music, like Guru Randhawa, Honey Singh, Badshah, and King. But today, film music is hardly giving you the big singing star,”.
Moreover, he addressed the current scenario in the music industry.
“The only thing is that for a singer like me, whose branding has become that of a Bollywood singer, it’s very difficult to get out of that and for people to start listening to my non-film songs. But for others like Neha Kakkar, who came in from social media and then started getting their film songs… Today, it’s (the music scene) changing; a singer doesn’t have to really rely to become popular through film music,” he added.
He further said, “Sadly, in the last 10 to 15 years, I’ve been much underutilized and not been a part of those big Bollywood songs, like I used to be. But at the same time, this could be of help. When you are constantly on a roll, there’s no time to reflect, no time to work on your skills. You tend to keep going with the flow. At some point, you realize you’re becoming mechanically redundant. So, I take this break, this little getaway, as a good thing that I get to work on my skill sets.”
