During an interview with a portal, Shahab spoke about his situation. He told News18, "Before the release of The Family Man, I was in a very difficult situation.

The actor also spoke about how the stage productions and the web series gave him a ray of hope. He went on to say, "I come from a very humble background. Financially, it has always been tough for me. It is still the same. Everything depends on the upcoming work. This needs to translate into more work.”
He added, “If that happens, everything is going to be great. Both the musical shows gave me some stability. I was able to support my family and pursue my dream. I wanted to come to Mumbai but knew that I couldn't afford to be there. Coming from Delhi to Mumbai was a really big step for me. I could shift because of the stability these musicals gave me. The Family Man has also given me some hope."
