Nightingale's Concert

Shreya Ghoshal’s ascent in the big bad world of Bollywood playback singing is a modern-day fairytale. Talented young girl wins a popular reality music show (not once, but twice), impresses one of the biggest directors in Bollywood, debuts as th e voice of one of the biggest stars in Bollywood in what ends up being a blockbuster, becomes the youngest playback singer in Bollywood, and lives happily ever after.

The show was “Sa Re Ga Ma”, the director Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the star Aishwarya Rai and the movie, of course, was “Devdas”.

Seven years down the line, Shreya remains a firm believer in the power of such reality shows. “These shows are where music makers look for fresh talent these days,” she said during a recent visit to the city. “Earlier, there was absolutely no way young singers could approach music directors; today, they have a chance to perform on national television and even become instant stars on these new-format shows that include voting.”

It doesn’t always work out perfectly, but as she put it, sometimes “a good talent is discovered by the right person and given the right songs, and it’s great.”

Which is what, of course, happened in the Ghoshal fairytale. Since “Devdas”, she’s zipped right to the top, singing for all the big directors, and bagging two National Awards, several Filmfare awards, Zee Cine awards and IIFA awards for films such as “Guru”, “Parineeta” and “Paheli”. She’s even won the Tamil Nadu State Award in 2007 for the melodious ‘Munbe Vaa’ (“Sillunu Oru Kaadhal”) which, incidentally, is her favourite Tamil number to date.

The young singer fits the bill of a fairytale princess in other ways too — fresh-faced and pretty. But what’s striking is her maturity; this princess has her feet firmly on the ground. When asked what her advice is for young hopefuls who are where she was a decade ago, her responses were sincere and thoughtful.

“It’s important to be judged by the right people at an early stage — I don’t mean on these shows, but by your seniors, elders with experience,” she said. “You may think you’re superb in a particular style and that may not be so — in that misconception, you could miss out on something else you might have excelled at.”

That, it seems, is her central message — it doesn’t have to be playback singing or bust. “There are so many genres out there, from classical and ghazals to rock, fusion and jazz — so many things to learn, to experiment with,” she said earnestly. “Don’t get disheartened if you don’t get into playback singing.”

In fact, branching out from Bollywood and working on a solo album is right at the top of her priority list as well. “But before that, I want to take a little break from my hectic recording schedule — right now, I don’t have the time to sit down and think about what I want my album to be,” she said. “Maybe travel, sit with some friends and come up with some ideas.”

Sounds good. Here’s hoping for that ‘happily ever after’ ending to the fairytale.

You know a singer’s popular when she’s not let off the stage at 11 p.m. and has to deal with requests for songs in four languages — Hindi (of course), Tamil, Gujarati and Bengali. Phew.

Shreya Ghoshal’s recent concert at the Music Academy in aid of the Sri Kutchi Milan (Madras) Charitable Trust started off, fittingly enough, with a goose bump-inducing rendition of the gorgeous ‘Bairi Piya’ from “Devdas”, which marked her debut as a playback singer.

And the goose bumps kept coming throughout the first half, as the singer, along with Shiv Prasad Mallya performed some of her most soulful hits such as “Teri Ore” from “Singh is Kinng”, ‘Munbe Va’ (one of only a couple of Tamil numbers she performed, but one of her best renditions of the night), ‘Pal pal’ from “Lage Raho Munnabhai” and ‘Mere Dolna’ from “Bhool Bhulaiya” (absolutely beautiful, with her voice rolling effortlessly over difficult swaras).

Shreya herself was in fine form — pitch-perfect as always, demonstrating the modulation and finesse that’s her mark and making you go “Ah, what a voice!” at regular intervals.

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the band accompanying her — while passable, its music was strident and lacking in subtlety, rather ruining softer songs such as ‘Piyu Bole’ from “Parineeta”.

And, while no fault could be found with Shreya as a singer, it has to be said that she’s a rather sedate performer. She tried to get the crowd going and more or less succeeded, but the effort showed. Still, that voice and her amazing tally of hit songs ensured that none of that mattered too much.

The second half saw her do a medley of fast numbers that finally got the energy levels up — songs from “Bachna Ae Haseeno”, “Om Shanti Om”, “Welcome” (“one of the few item numbers I’ve sung”) — and had a group of youngsters dancing at the back of the hall. And of course, she obligingly took those multilingual requests late into the night

Today's music lacks melody!!!!!!

Shreya recently gave an interview.Here it is:


You are performing live in the city today. How comfortable are you with stage shows?
I love it. It’s a great way to reach out to the audience. It’s a different high altogether.

India is celebrating Rahman’s win and hoping for an Oscar. What does this recognition mean for the Indian music industry?
Rahman Sir deserved this recognition a long time ago. He has managed to take India to a different level. It’s time to celebrate, for sure. But now that the world is looking at us, we need to be careful in what we do.

Are you referring to plagiarism in the Indian music industry?
Yes. Composers need to realise that we are in the spotlight now. There is no escaping if they pass off someone else’s music as their own. But more than that, I think it’s time we started promoting Indian classical and folk music, which is dying due to lack of proper exposure. Since Bollywood is such a great global platform, we need to promote what’s our own, rather than do something which is borrowed. And honestly, not all composers are cut out to do Western music.

So you think Indian composers can’t pull off Western music?
Some of them are great, but some are trying too hard. One cannot deny that the music these ‘wannabes’
compose, go on to become a hit. Composers need to stick to music they are good at, instead of jumping on the bandwagon. Music today lacks melody.

Going back to Rahman, you’ve sung for many of his projects. Do you wish you were part of Slumdog Millionaire too?
Like every singer, I wish I was part of the project. But I don’t feel bad about missing out, because every singer that Rahman Sir has worked with in the film, has done a great job. I’m an audience first and then a singer. So, I’m happy for everyone who has been a part of this project. Rahman Sir is absolutely original and unique.

You’ve also sung for composers who are serial offenders in plagiarism. Aren’t you apprehensive before recording with them?
Inside the recording studio, a singer is only concerned about the song. There is no time to think about plagiarism.

Jothegaari(Kannada)

Shreya has sung 3 songs in the upcoming Kannada Movie "Jothegaari".Music is by Sujit Shetty.

1.Jotheyalli - Shreya and Shaan

2.Ondundu - Shreya and Kunal Ganjawala

3.Yaake Yaake - Shreya

Antaheen

Shreya has sung in so many Bengali Movies and she has released 100s of Bengali albums too.She has had so many releases in the starting of 2009 and one of them includes "Antaheen" which is a big bidget Bengali Movie.It is directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhary.And guess wat,this movie has music by Shantanu Moitra.Remember the songs of Parineeta??If not,then the songs of this movie will recollect the memories of Parineeta when "Piyu Bole" became a chartbuster and was played in every FM Station continuously after every hour.Well,Shreya has 3 songs in this movie and when Shantanu Moitra is the composer,then the songs will definitely be unique and melodious.

Lets talk about Shreya first song which is a solo titled "Shokol Ashe Na".This song starts with a soulful tune played on Guitar which is a common instrument in Moitra's compostions.This song runs for 3 minutes 20 seconds and beleive me,this song is a big treat for all the fans.I dnt knw how to explain this song.This song reminds me of a theme sung by Hamsika Iyer in Eklavya.This song really touched my heart.I dnt knw wat to write abt dis song.Truly melodious!!!!!


Now comes the second song which is a duet with Pranab Biswas but we can call it a solo bcoz only some alaaps are sung by Pranab,and rest of the song is sung by Shreya.The song is titled "Jao Pakhi" and the speciality of the song is that it doesnt have any antara but still,it runs for 5 minutes 13 seconds.Its a very slow song and wat to say abt Shreya,she is really blessed and i am really blessed that i am getting to hear songs of every language sung by Shreya.This song reminds me of "Sakhi Piya".this sonsg is very simple to hear but when u sing,u definitely cant sing it the way Shreya does.I dnt think there is any other singer who can put the emotions the way Shreya puts.Must hear song!!!!!!!!!!

Now,the turn for third song which is again a duet with Babul Supriyo titled "Pherari Mon".Its quite a long song which runs for 6 minutes 38 seconds.Shreya starts singing at 1:10.And this again is a Shreya song as Babul Supriyo comes in last just to sing 2-3 lines.This song is best in its own way.It cant be compared with any other song but still,its a typical Moitra's composition.its always a treat to hear songs from this immortal combo of Shreya-Shantanu.I got very emotional after hearing dis song.I dnt understand the language but the singing of Shreya made me emotional.

ps:I have just these songs of this movie and beleive me,all the 3 songs are masterpeices.Plz dnt go to the language.Music has no barrier of language.I request every Shreya fan to hear these songs and tell me ur review.

After visiting this link,just click on "Bengali Songs List",u'll find the songs dere..

Jaaji Malligee

Here comes Shreya's another Kannada song "Olave" from the movie "Jaaji Mallige".Its a duet between Shreya and Karthik.Its composed by Sadhu Kokila(seems new to me).Its a super meody supported by instruments like Tabla,etc.This song reminds me of some Bollywood songs made in 90s.Karthik has given ample support to Shreya in this song.Shreya is as usual marvellous in the song.This song also has another version titled" sung by the same singers,same tune but words r exchanged.So if we talk abt "Olave" or " Cheluve Brahmmana Bali ",it means the same.

ps:I am very happy the way our Shreya is going in 2009 *touchwood*....Hope she sings number of songs in every language in the coming months as well.
