Rishi ji and Irrfan never ceased to take charge and re-define set boundaries. As actors, they took their artistic liberty and went on to create masterpieces. I\u2019m glad that a platform like \u2018Sa Re Ga Ma Pa\u2019, during such critical times and on the occasion of its 25th anniversary, is paying such a mega tribute to these legends,\u201d said Shaan.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cThere is no better way to give a tribute to any artiste than to celebrate their work and that\u2019s what we are trying to do. I have been a massive fan of Rishi Kapoor\u2019s work. I have grown up listening to songs featuring him and I must say he\u2019s inspired me as an artist.
