Kumar Sanu’s daughter talks about facing racism in US and UK
By MYBRANDBOOK
Shannon K, the daughter of Kumar Sanu has said in a new interview that she faced racism in the US and in UK. She shifted to London with her mother at a very young age and that is where she spent her growing up years and took her music training.
"I face a lot of mental stress in real life, I have been bullied a lot in my childhood. We often face racism in the western countries. I remember I was made to feel like a lesser being when I went for auditions because I was different from most of the people around. I was too young to handle it all well. I would come back home crying, and my confidence was often shattered due to these incidents. I had to prove myself, not just as an artist, but also as a human being," she said.
"I have now learned to deal with it. I wish to make a song about it someday and help promote Indian culture in all corners of the world,” she added.
Shannon made her debut with the pop single A Long Time, written and produced by singer Justin Bieber’s frequent collaborator, Jason Poo Bea Boyd. She also collaborated with music producer Kyle Townsend for an anti-bullying song titled Give Me Your Hand. The song was co-written by Shannon's younger sister Annabel. Shannon also sang together with Sonu Nigam for a song titled OMT in 2018.
In 2018, Kumar Sanu said about his daughter, “She is very hardworking and has already achieved so much in her life. A lot of people in Hollywood know me because of her and that is a matter of pride for our family.”
