श्रेया घोषाल – Shreya Ghoshal (b. March 12, 1984) is a popular Indian singer of Bengali origin, raised in Rajasthan. Following her success as a contestant on Zee TV’s singing competition Sa Re Ga Ma Pa in the late-90s, she began her career as a playback singer for Hindi films.
In 2000, Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali chose Shreya to sing the part of Paro, played by Aishwarya Rai, in his remake of Bimal Roy’s classic Devdas. Through working in this film, Shreya secured her place as a unique and rare talent in the Hindi film industry.
Over the past decade Shreya has continued to be one of the most innovative voices in Hindi film music, collaborating with talented singers/composers such as Sonu Nigam, Shaan, Rajesh Roshan, Anu Malik, Ilayaraja and AR Rahman. Her work, however, has not been limited to Hindi music. She has also received much acclaim for recordings in her mother tongue, Bengali, as well as in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Marathi.

“[Satyajit Ray's] contributions to the development of advertising imagery in India was very distinctive, but hard to define. Like all the best graphic designers, he combined visual flair with a feel for the meaning of words and their nuances… He brought to his work a fascination for typography, both Bengali and English…”
