Shreya Ghoshal, one of India’s most cherished singers, is known not just for her melodious voice but also for her deep love and respect for music. When asked about the musical legends she admires, Shreya shared her heartfelt thoughts. "If I could collaborate with any musical legend from the past, there would be so many! I don’t think this would surprise anyone, because the world already knows that I’m such a devoted student and follower of Lata Mangeshkar Ji and Asha Ji. If I had ever gotten the chance to sing with Lata Ji in that era, or even just to see her perform live, to hear her sing in person, even if I were just a little fly on the wall watching her, I would have felt so blessed."
