In this interview, Shan talks about his Indie roots and the influence of being an independent artist long before it was popular.

The conversation highlights his emotional “full circle” moment when he shot a music video for his son in the very same bungalow in Malad where he recorded his first independent song “Surili.” The title Shan: The Unfiltered Journey | Indie Roots, Hidden Talents & Music's Evolution | Radio City Music Fest S4 perfectly captures the spirit of this intimate talk, giving fans a chance to connect with him like never before.
