  • My Son Exposes Me To Music That Works Today: Shankar Mahadevan
Singer-composer Shankar Mahadevan says his son Siddharth exposes him to music that clicks with the new age listeners in the country.

Siddharth has sung songs like "Malang" and "Nachne de saare".
 
Shankar, who is part of the popular Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy trio, says it's a blessing to see his son doing well.
