Shreya Ghoshal - The Next Nightingale of India?

Share

She is only 25. She has already won four national awards for best female playback singer. She has sung in nine different languages and has won acclaim in all those languages. She is none other than Shreya Ghoshal!

I don’t listen to music that much but her songs caught my imagination of late. The versatility with which she sings in languages she does not know is amazing. Her diction is perfect in any song she sings even when that song is not in the language she speaks. If it was any other singer one could easily understand that the singer is singing in a language he/she does not know.

Here is a compilation of Shreya Ghoshal’s songs from eight different languages.

The first one – the latest hit in Malayalam – the song “Anuraga Vilochithanayi” from the movie “Neelathamara”. Hearing this song no one can say that Shreya Ghoshal does not know Malayalam as her diction is so perfect.

Here is the song Jiv Dangla from Marathi film Jogwa that won Shreya Ghoshal the National Award for best playback singer for the year 2009.

Another song that won Shreya Ghoshal National Award for the year 2009 – Pherari Mon from movie Antaheen.

The first movie in which Shreya Ghoshal sung – Devadas and she got National Award for the best female playback singer for the same movie. Here is a song from that movie.

Shreya Ghoshal won the Tamil Nadu government best female playback singer in the year 2007 for the song Munbe Va from the movie Silinu Oru Kathal.

Shreya Ghoshal won the Andra Pradesh government best female playback singer in the year 2005 for the song Pillagaali Allari from the movie Athadu

In Kannada Shreya Ghoshal won the Filmfare Award for the song Ninna Nodalenthu from the movie Mussanjemaatu.

Here is a Punjabi song soug by Shreya Ghoshal

If Shreya Ghoshal can sing like this for few more years then she will definitely be the next Nightingale of India.
