"ps" usually gives some idea about it.
[upadhyay@localhost videos]$ ps PID TTY TIME CMD 2422 pts/2 00:00:01 bash 11160 pts/2 00:00:00 ps
There are standard ways to change default shell that update passwd database etc, but I prefer putting an "exec zsh" in .bashrc, for example if bash is the default shell.
