Her candor was appreciated with a thundering applause. And <strong>Shreya</strong> said, “Such a discerning audience!<br />
Nothing like singing in this city. I wish I could perform here often.” The singer maintained the conversational<br />
space more with her musical sensibility and less with drama. Though most songs came imbued with additional<br />
feeling and dynamic turn of phrases, the embellishments were not in-your-face and remained true to the essence<br />
of the original. Her unabashed virtuosity balanced beautifully with her nuanced singing and graceful moves.<br />
The orchestra gathered around <strong>Shreya</strong> to play an effective supporting role while she herself drew upon all of her<br />
stamina and technique to deliver a mercurial ‘no break’ two-and-a-half hour concert. Light Effects and Sound<br />
system were very well synchronized.<br />
Before ending the program <strong>Shreya</strong> thanked the entire team of organizers calling Balaji Entertainment<br />
dignitaries, who called other dignitaries whose tireless work made this show successful.<br />
