Rohit Revo interviewed Shreya Ghoshal on the eve of her tour to
You are the only singer to get four national awards at the age of 26 in the Hindi film industry. How does it feel to achieve so much at such a young age?
Well, frankly I have never sung for awards.I am blessed that I have received so much love and respect from my audiences and jury all throughout. I would say, this is just my beginning, there is a lot to do. I am still evolving as an artist.
This is a big honor and completely unexpected. It was a surprise kept for me when I arrived at
From Devdas to Guru and peppy Latto in Ghajini ,you have had a great going. Where is Shreya Ghoshal heading in the future?
Hmmm! Absolutely no idea where I am headed.The only forces which drive me in life is a hunger for excellence and the need to do different things. So that will decide how my life shapes up in the future.
Do you think reality TV contests are the right mediu mto attract new music talent to the film industry?
Ans- This question has been asked to me just too many times. Let’s talk something more interesting.
Did you like your experience of being a judge in TV musical contest?
Was fun.Different kind of experience!
You have sung in many genres. Is there any particular type of song you love to sing?
Indian folk has always attracted me. I would like to experiment more in this genre. And Jazz, which is a very difficult music form, would like to learn it.
DNA
Wow. I feel awesome but to know that I am powerful is actually intimidating, because with power comes responsibility .So, I got to be very careful with every step I take in life, as everyone’s looking here

The last concert I had in
Hmmm. Lots. From Indian classical to Jazz to old Hindi film to new ones to a little bit of rock.
What is your advice to young singers aspiring to make it big in the film industry?
Before u decide to take the plunge into taking up a career in this industry, you must learn music, make your art really perfect. And be unique, don’t blindly copy someone’s style.

I can’t act.I am a drama queen only at home. If I ever do an album I will feature in the video (Laughs)

Come to the concert. I am sure I will be able to touch all music lover’s hearts somewhere There will be songs from all my films, and if requested may be some old Hindi songs, a few of my regional hits. Its all up to the audience’s mood .So be ready to make some noise! And make your requests heard
