Often we have seen Bollywood playback singers taking to acting. First there was Sonu Nigam, then Palash Sen and then Himmesh Reshammiya. And the latest singer to join the bandwagon is none other than singer Shaan.

Reportedly, the singer is all set to make his acting debut with the comic caper —Balwinder Singh Famous Ho Gaya.

Shaan is presently busy shooting for this film that is being directed by Sunil Agnihotri. The film also stars Mika Singh in an important role.

Talking about his movie debut, Shaan said, “Acting has always been on my mind and I always wanted to give it a shot."

Talking about his reality show stint, the singer further added, “The idea of doing this show was to try something new but at the same time not becoming  laughing stock. I was open to dancing and wanted to groove a little but I never thought I will be competing with professional dancers. It is a difficult job."

"Family life has taken a back seat. I used to always take my kids out during their summer break but this time we didn't go anywhere. So I feel very guilty about it. But they are very supportive and more than thrilled to see me perform on TV," he added.

"By now, I have done my work as a singer, earned my respect and now to go on waiting for a phone call for next project is not my thing. I would rather be a little pro active and do things that I always wanted to do," the singer concluded.
