Jab Se Tere Naina singer Shaan gushes over Arijit Singh’s outrolls; ‘Gaane ke end mein, jaise ke trance mein chala jaata hai’

As an ardent fan of Bollywood music, I find myself utterly captivated by Arijit Singh’s enchanting voice and emotional depth in his songs. His unique ability to infuse honesty into every note he sings is truly mesmerizing, a quality that sets him apart from other singers. In a world where the industry often discusses the secrets of success, it’s refreshing to hear the insights of a veteran like Shaan on The Ranveer Show.


Arijit Singh, without a doubt, enjoys widespread adoration not just within India but globally. Recently, Shaan openly expressed his admiration for Singh, commending the deep emotions conveyed through his songs. He was particularly moved by them, remarking that they left him spellbound. Moreover, Shaan pointed out that Singh’s authenticity shines through in his music, making it relatable to listeners on a personal level. This strong emotional connection is a significant factor behind his immense popularity.

Enthralled by Arijit’s vocal talents, every Bollywood enthusiast cannot help but be captivated. Often, the industry deliberates over the factors contributing to his immense success. Lately, Shaan offered insights during an interview on The Ranveer Show, expressing his thoughts regarding the artist behind Channa Mereya and his widespread fame.

In his own words, the artist behind “Jab Se Tere Naina” shared that every vocalist has a distinctive method when interpreting a song. For instance, he personally wouldn’t sing a love song in the style of Singh. However, Singh imbues each tune with sincerity, and this authenticity is palpable.

He mentioned that frequently, he ponders over how Arijit manages to submit to a tune when he sings, as evidenced by his popular song Tum Hi Ho from the movie Aashiqui 2 starring Aditya Roy Kapur and Shraddha Kapoor. However, it’s this aspect that leaves the audience in awe, as they can sense the authenticity in his performance.

Shaan pointed to Arijit’s song Channa Mereya as an example and commented, “I heard what sounded like a voice breaking, some roughness in the notes, but the sincerity shines through.” ( I perceived that his voice cracked at times; some notes had a raw quality, but his authenticity stands out.)

Looking back on his journey, Deewangi Deewangi’s singer reminisced about how, when he first entered the industry, singers were not permitted to infuse their personal touch into a song. Instead, composers like Anu Malik or Nadeem-Shravan would dictate the direction of the song, and it was the singers’ responsibility to perform the song according to their instructions.

Today, there are no strict rules for singers to adhere to, allowing them to infuse their unique interpretations into songs. This flexibility, according to Shaan, benefits today’s singers. In his opinion, Arijit Singh’s use of outrolls at the end of his songs, particularly when he enters a trance-like state, is commendable and adds a positive aspect to his performances.

Shaan made his playback singing debut in the film “Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi” back in 1999, where his song “Musu Musu Hasi” gained popularity. Since then, he has lent his voice to numerous hit Bollywood songs such as “O Humdum Suniyo Re” from “Saathiya”, “Kuch To Hua Hai” from “Kal Ho Naa Ho”, “Main Hoon Don” from “Don – The Chase Begins Again”, and “Chaand Sifarish” from “Fanaa”, among others.
