Bambooshoot dont take things so negatively, Never can i even think of insulting a legend like lataji, I too love lataji alot, i hav full collection of her songs, she is great, and after her i like someone then its shreya becoz of her singing!Now i hope u people understood what i was trying to say!😊
There is no question of taking things negatively here. I was just having a simple objection to a simple statement. I had nothing against the rest of your post, but when I had read this bolded statement with big font, honestly my heart missed a beat or two. So many of us have grown up listening to Lataji's melodies. Her entry in the music industry has changed the tone of the compositions in the music industry, and added a charm that would have never been there if she had not arrived. For many, this title is reserved for only and only Lataji and no-one else.
Of course, Shreya is impeccable. But I don't want to comment further on her versatility. Neither do I want to compare her with Anwesha. I love both of them immensely and saying anything further would only hurt both of them in different ways.
But, there is one thing I would like to add. I have supported many reality show singers before Anwesha and even after her. I have defended them passionately in my posts. But if I think of pitting any of them against Anwesha, they still seem pale to me.
