Playback singer Shaan has said he believes his live shows fail when he forgets to seek his late mother's blessings. He made the admission on Komal Nahta's podcast Game Changers: The Music Series. "After losing my mother in 2022, I always pray and take her blessings before shows. Recently, on one or two occasions, I forgot to do that, and those shows didn't work," he told Nahta.
Shaan described the ritual as non-negotiable for him, calling it something he cannot miss. His mother passed away in 2022. The singer continues to work in Bollywood, most recently singing 'Kahaan Chale Gaye Ho Ram' for Rajkumar Santoshi's historical film Batwara 1947, which stars Sunny Deol and Shabana Azmi.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Shaan’s reference to a post-2022 mother-blessing ritual marks the first time the singer has publicly linked his stage success to that personal loss. The Bollywood playback industry has long anecdotal tradition of performers citing family blessings before shows, but such public admissions remain rare. Shaan continues to work across film and independent music, with his latest release being the historical drama *Batwara 1947* from Rajkumar Santoshi, his first collaboration with the director. The podcast series *Game Changers: The Music Series* routinely extracts such personal reflections from senior artists, positioning itself as a confessional format rather than a promotional one. Fans tracking Shaan’s schedule will watch whether he publicly extends this ritual to non-stage appearances.
