We caught up with music director, Shankar Mahadevan to talk about his favorite songs and that one song which is on no one’s list and yet ranks number one on his own.

In a new show, Shankar Mahadevan is on the hunt to find the best singing talent in the country. Rising Star 2 aims to offer a stage for those who dare to dream big. Against the backdrop, Mahadevan speaks about how he quit his job to go after his dream. The singer also offers his formula for success to those starting out. “You have to have conviction, perseverance, and patience, patience and lots of patience,” he said.

COLORS’ Rising Star embarks on a journey to find India’s next musical sensation whilst breaking barriers of emotions, sentiments and prejudiced thought processes. Following season one, the channel is back with Rising Star 2 – India’s first LIVE showcase of pure talent. Produced by Optimystix Entertainment, the show is all set to revolutionize audience engagement starting 20 January 2018, every Saturday and Sunday at 9.00 PM on COLORS.

Rising Star 2 is the beginning to ascertain the fact that a housewife making food in the kitchen, a rickshaw driver ferrying people to earn bread and butter or even a small food delivery boy also has the power and the talent to woo the world. It is the stage to tell the world your fight against domestic violence, or being a single mother or how your financial background cannot stop you from becoming the next Rising Star.
