Shaan’s wasn’t Dasta(a)ndard title track

Dastaan-E-Om Shanti Om, the title track of Om Shanti Om, was seven minutes and eight seconds long.

It was the peace de resistance of the film, literally and figuratively. Penned by Javed Akhtar, it was composed by Vishal Dadlani and Shekhar Ravjiani.

It was remixed by three disc jockeys (Nikhil Chinapa, Zoheb and Nawed). Aptly titled Dark Mix, it was six minutes and 21 seconds long.

The fans of Shaan, who sang both versions of the song, were thankful that he didn’t say, “I Sha(a)n’t sing it.” He bookedast(h)aan in the pantheon of versatile singers.
