Shaan is a big name not just for Bollywood films but even for stage shows. On Sunday evening, he was in Assam for a show where he had to halt the performance after crowds went unruly and pelted stones and paper balls at him. The aforementioned show was held at the Sarusajai stadium in Guwahati, and everything was going smooth until Shaan began singing a Bangla song.
A video of a crowd turning unruly was shared on social media where crowds are heard shouting, "This is Assam and not Bengal." The video has now been removed from social media.

Shaan requested the fans to calm down and respect the performer. He also informed everyone that he was running fever, and despite that he came forth to perform for the people. However, the crowd refused to calm down and eventually, Shaan had to stop the show and move backstage. Reports say that he returned to the stage a little while later once the crowd had settled down, and continued the show.
