Shubhankar expressed his happiness at being crowned the Hip Hop Season 2 winner. “My journey at Hip Hop India S2 has been incredible and something that I’ll never forget. Having Remo sir and Malaika ma’am guiding me throughout is something that will always be close to my heart. KRUMP taught me to move with purpose and speak without words. I’m grateful to everyone who saw that in me. Now, it’s time to take KRUMP places it’s never been,” said Shubhankar.
Praising his journey, Judge Remo D’Souza shared, “Shubhankar brought a new language to the stage. His KRUMP performances weren’t just powerful, they were honest, intense, and unforgettable.
