How to run a command as a user without bash shell set?

There is actually one nifty way to do this - use the su command with combination of two options s and c.

# su -s /bin/bash -c 'touch /tmp/file' 

What actually will happen here is basically overriding configured shell with the one passed with "-s" option.
