Humnasheen - Ghazals by Shreya Ghoshal is the first ghazal album of singer Shreya Ghoshal. Shreya has spent the two years working on this album and has described it as "A heartfelt humble effort from me to revive the pure form of ghazals." The music to this album has been composed by Deepak Pandit, with lyrics from Manoj Muntashir.[1]
Shreya Ghoshal is a fan of ghazals, but she had never thought to take it as a first step into the non-film world. Urdu poetry has its own charm and impact. Ghoshal cannot do raag-based singing in films, and does not expect that it will happen in films. "Diction needs to be very clear", she said. Her tilt towards Urdu happened only after she entered the film industry. There are so many talented lyricists and composers from whom she learnt something every day. She has learnt music from Kalyanji (composer), who told her how important diction is. When she heard old songs of Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi, she could see how particular they were to ensure that the words were clear and beautifully pronounced. So she teamed up with Deepak Pandit & Manoj Muntashir for the album.
Launch
The album was launched on 12 March 2014 i.e. on the occasion of Ghoshal's 30th birthday.
