Ghoshal grew up in the remote northwestern corner of Rajasthan, in the small township of Rawatbhata near the city of Kota. Her father works in Bhabha Atomic Research Center as an Engineer in the nuclear power plant by the Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd (BARC) and mother is a postgraduate in literature. She belongs to a highly academic family. Her early days as a singer started from the age of four. Her mother was a good singer and whenever she used to play any note on the harmonium, Shreya used to sing correctly on her own. Her father recognized her talent and decided to give her proper training.
She auditioned for Sa Re Ga Ma, an Indian television show, and they sent her for a year and a half training. It was here that director Sanjay Leela Bhansali discovered her and determined that she should be the voice of Paro, the heroine in his 2002 film Devdas. She began recording songs for the movie in 2000; the film itself was released two years later.
Moviegoers from across the world heard Ghoshal's sweet-as-honey singing voice pictured on Aishwarya Rai, and she quickly became one of the top female playback singers in Bollywood, alongside Alka Yagnik, Sadhana Sargam and Kavita Krishnamurthy. Since Devdas, she has gone on to sing for many more actresses under the baton of various music directors, including M.M. Kreem, for whom she sang Jaadu Hai Nasha Hai, a sensuous number featured in the film Jism.
Ghoshal has completed her college education, and is planning to pursue her MA in literature, a subject which she adores. She enjoys Symphony and instrumentals in western music and her favorite is ABBA. But Indian music is definitely her soul. Her voice has a texture that suits romantic songs and she can project voice very well. Besides Hindi She has recorded in Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu (with elan), Kannada, Bengali, and Marathi. Apart from Devdas, she has done Jism, Saaya, Inteha, Out of Control, Khakee, Munnabhai MBBS , Dhoop, Kuchh Kaha Aapne, Aarman, Desh Devi, Tujhe Meri Kasam, LOC, Aetbaar, Police Force, Lage Raho Munnabhai etc.

Can you tell me could this be love
could this be love can you tell me

तू ही बताना आ आ आ हा
Could this be love, can you tell me
Could this be love
तूने चुना इश्क़ का रास्ता
हमसफ़र, इस सफ़र में धुंडता है तू
हा बात ये मान भी ले ज़रा
टूटकर अब किसी को चाहता है तू
रात दिन मेरी नींदों में (पा पा रा)
जाग रहा है कोई (पा पा रा)
रात दिन मेरी आँखों में (पा पा रा)
बस रहा है कोई (पा पा रा)
Is this love
मैने ना जाना आ आ आ हा

Inside our heart

तूने तेरा दिल किसी को दिया
बात ये सच है अगर तू मान ले इसे
दिल का सुकून तूने ही खो दिया
अब हक़ीक़त है ये तू जान ले इसे
आजकल मेरी चाहो में (पा पा रा)

The lyrics to Shreya Ghoshal's song "Is This Love" express uncertainty and the need for confirmation of feelings. The song's narrator questions whether what she is feeling is really love and begs for someone to confirm or deny it. The opening lines of the song, "Could this be love आ हा is this love, can you tell me could this be love," immediately establishes the themes of doubt and questioning. The following lines, "कही ना लागे मन, क्या है ये सूनापन आहा आहा, मुझे तुम बता दो, कोई तो वजह दो आहा आहा," convey the singer's sense of emotional emptiness and confusion, and the repeated "हर घड़ी" lines describe how the questioning thought processes are constantly running through the singer's mind.
The lyrics also speak to the idea of a journey towards love. The line "तूने चुना इश्क़ का रास्ता" suggests that the singer's love interest has "chosen the path of love." The lyrics also explore the idea of losing oneself in love, as in the line "दिल का सुकून तूने ही खो दिया," which implies that the singer's peace of mind has been taken by the object of her affection.
Overall, "Is This Love" is a song that captures the uncertainty and confusion that can arise when one begins to feel a strong attraction or connection to another person.
