12 Jun
Summary
- Shaan lost his father at age 13 and worked odd jobs.
- He supported his family while continuing his studies.
- He never imagined music would become his full-time career.
Singer Shaan recently shared poignant details about overcoming adversity during his youth. He recounted the profound loss of his father at the young age of 13, an event that immediately placed significant responsibilities on his shoulders.
In the years following his father's passing, Shaan took on numerous odd jobs to contribute financially to his family. These included tutoring children and selling cable TV connections during the initial boom of the technology. He also worked in a boutique, selling clothes, demonstrating a strong work ethic from an early age.
Despite his early musical endeavors, Shaan admitted that he never envisioned a career in singing. His voice change during adolescence temporarily halted singing opportunities, and even when they returned, he viewed it as supplementary income. His mother, who passed in 2022, was instrumental in raising him and his sister single-handedly.
