Renowned singer Shreya Ghoshal recently shared her concerns about young children performing her "raunchy songs" without understanding their lyrics. Citing Katrina Kaif's Agneepath song Chikni Chameli as an example, the singer expressed that she feels embarrassed when girls as young as five or six sing and dance to such songs.

During an interaction with YouTuber Lily Singh, Shreya stated that while some of her songs are on the sensuous or sexy side, there is a fine line between celebrating femininity and objectifying women.

"I have a handful of songs which could be borderline raunchy, like Chikni Chameli. There is a fine line between being sensuous, sexy, or being out there, making yourself objectified, or women in general. Why am I a little conscious about it now? It’s because I see young girls sing these songs without understanding the lyrics," Shreya said.

She further mentioned that children often approach her, excited to perform these songs in front of her. "It's a fun song, they are dancing to it, they come and say, 'Can I sing this in front of you?' Then I feel very embarrassed that a little girl, who is probably 5-6 years old, is singing those lyrics. It doesn't suit, it doesn't sound good, I don't want that," she said.

The singer also revealed that she is now more conscious of the lyrics she lends her voice to. While she doesn't object to songs celebrating sensuality, she believes they should be written more thoughtfully.

"I have been conscious about that, and even if I am doing it, it is not wrong to be celebrating, happily talking about how sexy I am or how sensuous I am, but don't write it in such a way... Maybe if a woman were writing it, she would have written it in a very gracious manner. She can—it's just a matter of perspective. In our society, especially in India, it is essential to set some benchmark because music and films have a huge impact on our lives," Shreya further said during the conversation.
