It is pertinent to mention that Shah Zaman Ali Khan has made a name in the Pakistani, American and Indian music industry.

He reportedly sang at the 28th birthday celebration of the youngest son of industrialists Mukesh and Nita Ambani Anant Ambani.

The singer thanked his father for helping him reach his height on Instagram.

“What a great dad he is! Lets me occupy his seat as he takes mine. Knowing that I still have to earn this seat, but still, how willingly he wants to see me on this seat. How blessed I am to have a father and an Ustad like my dad,” he wrote.
