Shreya Ghoshal

“I do not like sweets. But if I have to choose one, it has to be rasmalai.”

“It's nice to create something you believe in. It's even nicer to dance to your own tunes sometimes.”

“It is immensely enjoyable to work for an album because there's a lot more creative freedom. In films sometimes, all that the makers care about is making the music commercially appealing.”

“I love the idea of waking up to a song. It could be any song.”

“No matter where I go, I actually have a lot of couples coming and telling me that one of my songs was instrumental in strengthening their romance!”

“I'm not thin! I just wear clothes that make me look thin.”

“As someone who worships music, I believe it can never be ugly!”

“If given a chance, I would really want to explore the monuments in Delhi, like Qutub Minar and the forts. I have been there as a child, but now I want to go back and understand the history and significance behind them. We take all of these things for granted in life.”

“I believe that when the going gets tough, you should just hit pause. Assimilate what is happening for 10 minutes. Your thoughts will be much clearer.”

“I don't believe in pretending to be someone else. I'm what I actually am in real life. For instance, like any normal girl, I fight with my mother. I mean, it is just fine. In fact, I fight daily with my mother.”

“I listen to a wide range of music, from country to pop to alternative rock, as well as Indian music. You know, what excites me are new ideas. And with a lot of the international hits - from Lady Gaga to Rihanna and others - you'd find excellent production and groundbreaking ideas that lift the music to a greater realm.”

“Music reality shows provide a platform to people who have talent and gives them visibility and exposure. It is a win-win situation for participants.”

“A studio is like a meditation room where music is created. And a live performance is the place where the creation of the studio is taken ahead. I love both.”

“I don't have a lot of desires, you see; I feel so lucky. God has give me a lot of things already; there's nothing to ask for.”
