4 min readMumbaiMar 5, 2026 01:52 PM IST Shreya Ghoshal has responded to the trolling that she received after singing “Chikni Chameli” on reality show Indian Idol 5 days after claiming she’s embarrassed of little girls singing to her popular item song. The singer has now clarified that she’s not embarrassed of the song itself and would continue to own it and sing it at her concerts. However, she wouldn’t lend her voice to more of such suggestive numbers, and has already turned down a few big ones. “When I sing ‘Chikni Chameli’ in front of a child, for example, I feel awkward. So, after doing that song, I got a lot of offers. Although ‘Chikni Chameli’ was not vulgar on the face, but after that, a dear friend of mine, a composer, offered a film song to me very sweetly.

Jo hamari normal mentality hoti hai, ki agar koi chhota sa scene hai ya light scene hai toh hum usmein zyada effort nahi karte. Lekin jab Amit ji kaam karte hain, unke liye chhota scene bhi utna hi important hota hai jitna ki dramatic scene. (Whatever he does, he does with full dedication.

Later, I found out that man came from an underground background, which fit the essence of Vijay’s character perfectly. So, the character’s first shot was inspired by him. When the movie released, the producer called to say theatres were having issues. Audiences were tearing up seats and telling the sound …
