I am on the other side and loving it: Radhika Mukherji
Radhika Mukherji has always been the perfect wife – she has been involved in almost every aspect of her husband singer Shaan’s life, by being there for him, supporting him always, yet not interfering with his work. And now Radhika has taken a step further – she is the brain and heart behind Shaan’s upcoming show Live, Love and Laugh Shaan Se…
Mother of two pre-teen boys Soham and Shubh, Radhika says, “Live, Love, Laugh is my third baby.
Right from the conceptualization to the final outcome – I am involved in everything. I now understand the work that one puts in to produce a live event. I’m on the other side this time and totally loving it!” This Saturday, 23 August will have Shaan performing live – dance and songs – at the NCPA’s Jamshed Bhabha Theatre.
She is not a weakling when it comes to becoming a power wife. She says, “​Once Shaan had told me very romantically, ‘Baby you are my only weakness’, and instead of gushing and falling into his arms I replied back, ‘Baby, I don’t want to be your weakness, I want to be your strength!’ And that’s what we are for each other - strength!”

Talking about how she is perceived as a possessive wife she explains, “People sometimes misunderstand this. They think I’m possessive. They fail to understand that I’m just walking close behind my husband making sure I’m there when he needs me and its vice versa. By walking close behind him I don’t mean that I stalk him. I really don’t know his whereabouts in the day - which recording studio - who he met etc. I don’t check his emails or phones. I don’t follow him to his shows. But I’m in tune to what is bothering him, his decisions, his achievements and even his state of mind!”

About Shaan’s career she says, “​As far his career is concerned, Shaan himself never had a plan. Opportunities came his way. Things fell into place. Its really all his hard work dedication and commitment and his Dad’s blessings. I truly believe that Dad made the blueprint for his success.”
