Talking about Shaan, he is known for his smooth and melodious voice, has given several chartbusters including Tanha Dil, Chand Sifarish, Jab Se Tere Naina, and Behti Hawa Sa Tha Woh and many more.
Anup Jalota, often referred to as the "Bhajan Samrat," has had a long and illustrious career in devotional and ghazal music. Some of his most loved renditions include Aisi Lagi Lagan, Jag Mein Sundar Hain Do Naam, and Rang De Chunariya.
Recently, both Shaan and Anup Jalota were seen at the funeral procession of legendary singer Asha Bhosle, who passed away on April 12, and also paid a musical tribute.
Sonu Nigam, who shared a close bond with the late icon, had taken to social media to express his thoughts on her demise, stating that her passing should not be viewed with extreme sadness.
Speaking about her passing, Sonu expressed admiration rather than grief. He said, "I am sad that she is gone, but I do not want to make it about sadness. She lived a very full life. She worked until the very end. Is this a life to cry for? Every artist dreams of a life like hers, to continue working till the very end."
He added, "I too want to live long and keep my work relevant till the end, just like her. The life she lived is worth saluting. It is our good fortune that we got to spend time with her and learn from her. She was strict, but she had every right. She was our guru."
Calling her the last of an era, Sonu concluded, "They were a group of great people who defined film music. She was the last soldier standing, and now that chapter has come to an end.
