Singer Shaan on Monday rued that contemporary Hindi film songs lack the most important ingredients of quality music - poetry, composition and voice. Taking to Twitter to express his thoughts about modern-day compositions, Shaan said that the emotions in yesteryear songs were more real despite being technically inferior than today's sound. Even With all the technical support available today . we cannot match the magic of those yesteryear’s songs. the 3 main ingredients are missing . Poetry, Composition and Voice.. #justsaying — Shaan (@singer_shaan) February 1, 2021 I would really encourage our youth to listen to songs from the 60s and 70s .. the sound may be alien .. but the emotions were so much more real . there are life lessons hidden in most of those songs 🤗 — Shaan (@singer_shaan) February 1, 2021 "Even with all the technical support available today. we cannot match the magic of those yesteryear’s songs. the 3 main ingredients are missing.

Shaan rose to stardom in late '90s-2000s with romantic hits like "Musu Musu Haasi", "Tune Mujhe Pehchaana Nahin", "Woh Ladki Hai Kahan", "Yeh Hawaien", "Kuch Toh Hua Hai" and "Jabse Tere Naina". In a previous interview with the indianexpress.com, Shaan criticised the culture of recreations and Bollywood's growing preference for "untrained singers that sound like a common man."
