Inthaku Nuvve - Snehithude

I wanted to write about the song day before yesterday just after I wrote about it in the Orkut Community of Shreya but because of exams, I could not. And one of the big reasons of not writing the post was power cut in Delhi, that too in “not so good season”.Anywayz now there is no power cut, so thankfully I can write the post now.


From the title of the song, many fans must have guessed correctly that its a telugu song. The song is a solo by Shreya which runs for 4 minutes 44 seconds. Music is composed by Shiva Shankar.When I heard the mukhda(starting) of the song. I was quite sure that it would be a peppy + romantic number but I was proved wrong when I heard the antaras(stanzas).I have been hearing this song continuously for the last two days and I am completely in love with the melodious track, specially the antaras of the track are mindblowing.The song starts with some “ Who are you” sung by chorus. The way Shreya sang Guchhi Gucchi in the starting of the song is very cute. There are some lines in the mukhda which reminded me of some lines of the song “Thendralum Maruthu”.I am sorry I am not able to write the Tamil lines here because I am very bad at it.Anyone can find the similarity between the lines though. The plus point of the song is of course soulful singing by Shreya ,light instruments and the composition itself(I said everything huh?).She has sung the antara with deep feelings and that’s one of the reasons I am getting mad over the song. After the first stanza, you’ll get to hear some lines sung by some other singer. It seems that the composer has done a lot of hard work in making the antaras.After the second stanza starts, you will feel the same magic which you must have felt in the first stanza.Note the way Shreya ends the line Nuvvala…………Neerputunte(Sorry for the wrong spellings but I felt it was necessary to write the lines).


The song also has a sad version sung by Shreya and Karthik which runs for two and a half minutes approximately, having only one antara .Its equally soulful and touching.


Well, that’s all I can say about the songs.


Hats off to Shreya and also the music director for giving the fans such a beautiful song.

Prem Kahani

We get to hear some more Kannada songs by Shreya.She is back with Ilayaraja in the Kannada Movie “Prem Kahani”(hindi titled in kannada?).She has sung two songs in the album.Lets discuss about the songs.

Rangu Rangu – The first track in the album is Rangu Rangu which is a duet sung by Shreya and Ilayaraja himself.Its a peppy duet.Raja has used his favourite(I guess) instrument violin(which I could only hear in the song except some normal beats).The song somehow remineded me of Oduthey Oduthey which was sung by Shreya and Karthk Raja,though the tune is completely different and as we know.Shreya can render any kind of song flawlessly,so she proves it again by singing this track.She is marvelous in classical,romantic or peppy songs.You name it,and she can sing it.

Aa Shringaru – The last track is titled “Aa Shringara” which is a solo by Shreya.This song has a strong Ilayaraja touch,though its composed by Ilayaraja only.Frankly telling,I did not understand in which category I should put this song.It is so different and impressive in its own way.Its tough too.The notes changes mostly in every line,specially in the antaras and Shreya has rendered it,as usual,beautifully.I am glad that Raja chose Shreya for this song.She must have been the only choice for Ilayaraja for this type of a song.I cannot describe this song anymore.Just hear it and feel tha magic of the magical Shreya – Ilayaraja combo!

Bejanagi Premisu

Here comes another Kannada song by Shreya from the movie “Chamkaisi Chindi Udaisi”.Music is composed by PB Balaji for whom Shreya also sang in Inba.Remember the song En Vizhigam Meethu?

Anywayz,the track is titled “Bejanagi Premisu”.Its a duet sung by Shreya and Tippu who sounds somewhat like Naresh Iyer in some lines.The song is neither peppy nor romantic.Its somewhat the mixture of both.The beats are western.The song starts with some Aaha Aa…. (voice very similar with Alisha Chinoy).Shreya moulds her voice according to the song and sounds superb.As I told,Tippu is sounding like Naresh Iyer in some lines.PB Balaji has worked hard on this song,specially on the stanzas.Adding Aaha to the song has made the song more impressive.Overall,I liked this song.Hope you’ll like the song too.

Shreya singing Girdhar ke Rang

Most of you must have seen Shreya’s performances in TVS SAREGAMA.Once she sang Girdhar when she was a contestant in SAREGAMA.I am not going to post that video here.I found a rare video of Shreya recently singing the same song.She also plays harmonium while singing.Shreya is the queen in every genre,be it classical,romantic songs or peppy numbers.Our Queen rocks.Enjoy !

Shreya in Macau

Recently,I found a new video of Shreya in which she talks about IIFA and her song “Teri Ore”.She also sings the song.


Kyun Hota Hai Dil Deewana

Some days ago,I informed you about Shreya’s song in Shortkut – The Con is On.Music was released yesterday.Shreya has sung one song in the album titled “Kyun Hota Hai Dil Deewana”.Its a duet with Javed Ali who also recently won IIFA Award for Jashn-e-Bahara.This is the second duet of Shreya with Javed Ali.First one was Hansani from Malamaal Weekly.Music of the movie is composed by Shankar – Ehsaan – Loy.Shreya has sung many songs for the trio,the last one being the soulful Tere Naina which still sounds refreshing.So,lets see if Kyun Hota also gives the same effect.

The song runs for less than 4 minutes.When I saw the name of the track,I thought it would be a romantic number,but I was wrong as it is more of a Kajra Re(from Bunty aur Babli) type of a number.This is not what we usually accept from the trio – Shreya combo.She has mostly sung romantic or slow numbers for the trio.The compose has used the same instrument in the starting which was also used in Kajra Re and Hoth Rasiley.Not only this,the tune also sounds somewhat like Hoth Rasiley but the song is not like Hoth Rasiley,though it falls in the same category.Shreya has sung this song with ease.We all know she can sing any type of song with ease.The antaras are also made suitable for the situation.Javed Ali has given ample support to Shreya in the track.The song is picturized on Amrita Rao(for whom Shreya has sung many songs including the ones in Main Hoon Na and Vivah and her voice suits perfectly on Amrita Rao).I don’t know how to describe the song.I am happy that the trio used Shreya for this song.

Ps:I hope the readers didn’t miss my last post.

Will my dream come true?

Some people say that DREAMS never come true but I have always believed on hard work and Lord Shiva which are the only two ways to convert our dreams into reality.Well,if you ask about my dreams,then many of you would guess correctly.Isn’t it?Yes,one of my biggest dream is to meet none other than “OUR QUEEN – SHREYA GHOSHAL”.I cannot express in words how much happiness I get when I see the most deserving Shreya winning the awards and accolades.Since Devdas,I became a mad fan(I would have become earlier if I had seen her performances TVS SAREGAMA) of Shreya.I was,I guess,12 years old when I heard her in Devdas and got to know what is real devotion.I may sound crazy to some of you but my life would be incomplete if I don’t meet Shreya atleast once in my lifetime.I have been praying to Bholenath(that’s what I call Lord Shiva) for long that I must get an opportunity to meet Shreya atleast once and guess what,he heard prayer very soon and yesterday,I got the news that she is going to perform in Delhi at Siri Fort Auditorium on 26th July.I could not believe my eyes when I read that article.I immediately called the person whom we are instructed to call for booking tickets.He said that 1200 tickets are already sold out and more tickets will be available after 10 days.Now,I am waiting these 10 days to end.I really hope that I get the tickets and get to meet Shreya unless the security guards allow me to do so(that is what I fear.The must allow her fans to meet).I have planned everything.The first thing which I am going to do after meeting Shreya is “touch her feet” and take her “blessings” which has become the most important need of my life.I have many other things which I will tell only after I meet Shreya.I request all of you to please pray for me.

Regards

Nishant

Die – Hard fan of Shreya.

Baawri Hoon Main - Dekh Bhai Dekh

There’s a saying “Sabra Ka Phal Meetha Hota Hai”.I think its very true because after the strike has ended,there has been atleast one two songs of Shreya in a week(touchwood).I would like it to continue in the same way.In the last post,I mentioned about Shreya’s upcoming projects and Dekh Bhai Dekh was one of them.The music is released and Shreya has one solo in it..Music is composed by Shadaab Bhartiya

I saw the trailor of this song on television some days ago.Since the,I fell in love with this song.The song runs for 5 minutes 40 seconds.It starts with the chirping of birds and continues with a wonderful tune played on flute.The composer has used typical instruments like “Dholak” which is mostly used in this type of a composition.The song is a melody(not exactly) with a slight folkish touch,specially in the stanzas.Dholak sounds very catchy at 1:00 after Shreya sings “Jhooli Main”.She sings Dhi Ta Na somewhere aroung 1:45 which is very impressive. Shreya starts with the song singing “Jee Karta Hai Ud Jaoon”As I told,the composer has used Dholak as a main instrument in the song.Shreya takes small small harkats in the song(which is one of her specialities),specially in the line “Ab To Jhoola Jhooli”.Note the way she stretches the word “Jhooli” between 3:15 – 3:20.Overall,the song is very fresh and nice.Hope you all would love it.

IIFA stays with us !


What I prayed to Lord Shiva came true.Well,it had to happen.The only deserving singer among the nominees wass Shreya.She had to win IIFA.I just got the good news from a News Channel and I was dancing with happiness.Shreya sang Teri Ore with so much feel that the audience could not find any other singer who deserved IIFA Award.Definitely,Thanks to Pritam for choosing Shreya to render Teri Ore.So,Shreya adds one more award to her kitty.


Many Many Congratulations Shreya :)

You once again made your fans feel proud


Always your supporter and a die - hard fan

Kyun Phoolon Ke - Kambakkht Ishq

Finally,the wait ends.Music of the most awaited movie Kambakkht Ishq is out and our Shreya has sung two songs in the movie.No,the song is same but there are two versions of the song.One is a duet with Shaan and other is the solo of Shreya,though there is hardly any difference in the songs.As we all know,Shreya has sung for Anu Malik after two and a half years of time.Phew….I had to wait a lot as this combo has given some memorable songs,be it Main Hoon Na songs or be it Soona Soona from Krishna Cottage,etc.


Lets talk about the solo as the duet is also completely same.Only the lines of Shaan(which are very less) are deleted from the song.So,if we talk about the duet or the solo,it means the same.Th first word came to my mind when I heard the song was MARVELLOUS.The song is so impressive that I was completely lost in the song.After Tere Bin for Jashnn,this song has increased my expectations for the album Blue in which Shreya has sung for Lara Dutta.Anywayz,let me come to the song again.The duet runs for 5 minutes 31 seconds and the solo runs for 4 minuttes 32 seconds.The song has a ANU MALIK STAMP on it(if you have heard his albums).Its a sad but a sweet song.The song starts with a beautiful tune played on Piano.The song ascends with lovely western beats which adds more colour to the melody and the whole feel of the song.The antaras of the song are simply mindblowing.There is a line in both the stanzas “Dil Kahe Ye Kyun Hua” after which Shreya comes back the line “Kyun……………” .I found it very impressive.I am not able to find suitable adjectives for the song.Hats off to Shreya for rendering the song amaizingly.What I think is that this song definitely deserves a Filmfare or a Star Screen next year.This can only happen if the producers promote the song.Please don’t miss the song.Its a masterpiece.


Ps:Here are some Upcoming Projects of Shreya: Blue,Short kut – The Con is On , Anubhav , Dekh Bhai Dekh , Chal Chalein , Mr Singh Mrs Mehta , Prem Ka Game,etc.I will update more soon.
