While I admire Shreya ji's talent, I do wonder why it took three decades for a female artist to achieve this. The industry should celebrate and support more women in releasing live albums. That said, she is absolutely deserving and has made the nation proud on global stages.

Waah! This is such a proud moment. Performing at the Dolby Theatre in LA? That's the home of the Oscars! She is carrying forward the legacy of Lata Mangeshkar with such grace and talent. Definitely buying this album for my family.
