Shreya Ghoshal offers a song composed by her to II13 contestant Senjuti!

#IndianIdol13, one of the most loved music reality shows on Indian television, will be welcoming national award winner and singer ‘#ShreyaGhoshal’ in this Saturday’s episode. Airing on #SonyEntertainmentTelevision at 8:00 PM, this special episode will be celebrating Shreya’s 21-year legacy of being in this industry and her invaluable contribution to Indian music. In a never seen before gesture, the acclaimed singer will perform a song written by #SenjutiDas, a contestant on the show, thus giving Senjuti a huge gift on such a special day.

Shreya’s presence makes the contestant emotional as she finds it hard to believe that Shreya Ghoshal is seated in front of her. After her performance in front of the celebrity judge, she sheepishly reveals how she is also a composer. “I make songs when I have time and compose them by myself. I’ve composed a song for you, and I believe your voice is the only one that will work with it. Additionally, I would like to request you to sing the song I wrote and listen to my mockup of it.” Later, Senjuti’s song is performed by Shreya Ghoshal, who will be seen also asking her when they should record it. Senjuti performed “Thode Badmash” from “Sawariyan” and “Saans” from “Jab Tak Hain Jaan.’

She says, “Aap mere life ki sabse badi inspiration hai,” it is because of you that I am standing here right now. I first got into singing by listening to your songs, and since then, I’ve performed the majority of the song which are yours.” She also says, “My parents used to appreciate hearing music a lot when I was a child. They bought me a CD at that time that was your album. When I first heard “Mere Dholna,” one of your songs, I knew I wanted to follow in your footsteps and achieve my goal of being a playback singer.”

Shreya further thanks Senjuti for her music selection and commends her on the rendition of ‘Saans’, which is one of her favourites. ‘Aapne sach mein badal diya yeh mahol. The first song that Sanjay Leela Bhansali Sir composed was called Thode Badmash, and it was performed for the first time in the Sawariya movie. Yeh gaane ka ehsaas bohot pure hai; this song has a divine quality. You did a fantastic job singing it, and the small tunes were perfect. God bless you!” said Shreya.
