The makers of "Balwinder Singh Famous Ho Gaya" had a tough time convincing singer-turned-actor Shaan to go shirtless for his debut film.

Shaan was surprised to learn that he has to go shirtless for a scene and didn't agree for it as he wasn't comfortable with the idea.

Director-producer Sunil Agnihotri had to step in to convince Shaan.

Agnihotri explained the nuances of the scene with Anupam Kher to Shaan and only after he was fully convinced did Shaan agree to give the shot.

Later, Shaan came out of his vanity van wearing just a dhoti and delivered a perfect shot with confidence. The musical comedy film features Punjabi singer Mika Singh in the lead role.
