Shaan is known for his versatility lending his voice for different genres like romantic, pop, hip hop, slow music. It was in Mumbai where the singer was recording title song of
Hotel Beautifool.'I don't pick songs but the song picks me.', says Shaan.
Shaan added, 'Sanjeev Tiwari's wife approached me and Sanjeev is a really old friend right from Calcutta. He sent me the song and I really liked this fun song. The film, Hotel Beautifool is a comedy film and many of my friends like Brijendra Kala are working for the film. And also Johnny Lever bhai. The song has interesting lyrics and fun elements like sounds of hotel bell and people climbing up the stairs. I'm enjoying recording and dubbing this song, which is the title track of the film.'
When asked about the director, Shaan reciprocated, 'Sameer Iqbal Patel has been passionate and extremely involved with the music of the film. He has put his heart and soul into the music. It's a good thing that he has co-composed the music especially in an industry like ours where everything gets compartmentalized and all do their own thing. It's a quirky song. I've also seen the trailer of the film and a lot of crazy stuff is happening. I'm sure that no one would book room number 25 in any hotel after seeing this film.'
Lyrics of the song always play an important role in the success or failure of a number. Nowadays, abusive words are twisted to sound in a way to connect with the youth, but there is nothing like this for this song.
Shaan said, 'It's a lyrics-based song. It's got a lot of lyrics and there's not much of melody. Rhyming words with beautifool like housefool, jhulool, usool are used a lot. There is a lot of (ENGLISH) hinglish words used in the song. Just singing a few lines or words don't connect but once it gets done on the whole, everything will fall into place.'
Director is also donning the Music Director's hat sharing with Sanjeev Tiwari who is the 2nd Music director. Sameer says, 'Shaan is contemporary and he has sung a wide range of songs. It's the title song, Hotel Beautifool and I wanted someone who could stress on the 'fool' part of the song. The song has a lot of fun elements. It basically introduces the characters of the film and expresses the feel of the film.'
Film is directed by Sameer Iqbal Patel, to be jointly produced by Madhire Ravinder Reddy and Mohammed Aslam Shaikh under the banner of Madhire Film Corporation and Umbrella Film Corporation. The movie to be tentatively released in April 2015.
