Chaar Kadam is one of my best songs-Shaan


Debarati Sen (BOMBAY TIMES; January 11, 2015)

Shaan is happy with the appreciation coming his way for his song Chaar Kadam from PK. He says, “Frankly, I had not expected such a response. I got many fan calls, but it's not everyday that people from the music fraternity ­ other composers and singers ­ and also people from the industry call you up and praise your work.“ 

Interestingly, while recording the number, the singer was skeptical whether it would appeal to listeners. “However, the combo of Shantanu Moitra and Swanand Kirkire worked very well,“ he smiles.

Shaan thinks that the romantic song stands out for its soft melody.“It's not one of those numbers with fast beats and loud lyrics. Warm, romantic love is what comes to your mind when you first listen to it. I think it's one of my best songs. In fact, I have memories of the bridge in Belgium, where they shot this song. We had been there on a family holiday a few years ago and had taken a lot of pictures of the bridge.“

Technically too, Chaar Kadam has an unusual composition. “It has a double octave, but the jump happens so smoothly that a regular listener can't register it.That is what makes this work,“ he concludes.

Get a chance to spend 3 nights 4 days in Bruges, the city of 'Chaar Kadam'


BOMBAY TIMES (December 20, 2014)

Chocolates, beers, canals and medieval architecture all come together to create the perfect ambience for leisurely romantic walks and charming horse-carriage rides in Bruges, which is located in the picturesque city of Flanders in Belgium. Interestingly, Chaar Kadam, the romantic song from PK featuring Sushant Singh Rajput and Anushka Sharma, brings alive the magical spirit of the city with its romantic backdrop.

Flanders is an ideal location to see cutting-edge craftsmanship, enjoy historical sites, indulge in exquisite gastronomy and spoil yourself with excellent shopping possibilities. And bringing the destination closer to you now is Jet Airways, which connects Brussels directly from Delhi and Mumbai, with daily flights. Once you are in Brussels, there are trains that run every half an hour from the airport to Bruges, across the scenic land scape of the Flemish countryside.

The heart of Bruges, surrounded by an almost continuous ring of canals, is the best preserved example of medieval Flanders. So picture postcard perfect is the city centre that it is almost impossible to take a bad photograph here.

You can now make your own version of Chaar Kadam and relive your PK moments in the 'The City of Romance'. Participate in an exciting contest to win a 3-nights 4-days holiday package to Bruges and Flanders. What's exciting is that the return air passage to Brussels from either Delhi or Mumbai will be sponsored by Jet Airways, while the hotel accommodation and local transport arrangements will be courtesy Visit Flanders.
