MUMBAI: Shaan, an established playback singer, says he does not want to be labelled as a senior artist.

During a press conference of musical extravaganza ‘Suron Ke Rang Colors Ke Sang - Salaam Shri Gulshan Kumar’, Colors CEO Raj Nayak said that it is a platform to give a chance to new talent and that they will continue doing three to four shows every year.

When Shaan was called on stage, he thanked everyone and said, "As Raj sir is talking about giving a chance to only new talents even I have kept myself as a brand new person. I do not want to be an old man, so count me as a fresh singer. I do not want to be labelled as a senior artist. I would always like to be with the younger generation."

He was present at the conference along with actor Ayushmann Khurrana and singer Sonu Nigam.

Shaan was happy to be a part of the event which celebrates music. "It is a great connect. I am honoured to be associated with the concert. I have requested Sonu Nigam to keep me in the dance segment. Enough of singing romantic songs," he said.

The event is a musical concert in tribute to Gulshan Kumar and to celebrate three decades to T-Series. Khurrana, Nigam and Shaan are the hosts.
