In an exclusive conversation with Jitesh Pillai on In The Ring with Filmfare, Shreya Ghoshal offered her perspective on the evolving landscape of music reality shows, explaining the shift from pure competition to the influence of public validation. Shreya believes her rise came during a simpler time when music was "untouched and pure." The format then was straightforward, contestants were judged solely on their performance, with their fate decided by the judges' scores alone.
