'Tanha Dil'! Shaan Had The Most 'Dad' Reaction To His Son Leaving Home For Higher Studies
The album was released in 2000, and it catapulted Shaan into stardom and kickstarted his career as a singer. While it has been 21 years since the track was released, it now has a whole new meaning for singer Shaan, the father!
"Aankhon mein sapne liye Ghar se hum chal to diye..
Jaane yeh raahein ab le jaayengi kahan.."
Way before we ever made playlists for 'travel' and 'wanderlust,' there came a song that made a permanent place in our hearts and still remains the 'OG Safar' song.
Apart from being a special song for each one of us, 'Tanha Dil' is nostalgic beyond words.

Sohum, Shaan's eldest son, has left home to pursue his higher education in California. Shaan had the perfect 'father' emotions as he bid his son a goodbye! He took to Twitter to sum up, his feelings as a father.
His tweet made many recall what the song meant to them.

Apart from Sohum, Shaan and his wife Radhika Mukherjee have a younger son named Shubh.
Shaan had shared the news of Sohum's admission in June. While wishing him a birthday, he wrote:
"My older boy @sohamukherji turns 19 today ¡ and it fills my heart with joy that he is compassionate, sincere, charming, and super talented at everything he does ¡ this is a big year for him as he¡¯s preparing to head to University of Southern California ( USC).. and pursue a degree in Music and Law."
The original song was composed by Ram Sampath. He later worked on several other hit songs such as Musu Musu Haasi, Wo Pehli Baar, Chaand Sifarish, Om Shanti Om, and many others.
