The 31-year-old playback singer considers it one of her most “special” awards. “I am very honoured from this love, warmth and appreciation that you have bestowed on me. It is a very special title that has been awarded to me.

I am a proud Bengali and to be recognised by your own people amongst so many other deserving people is really special to me. “It is really hard for me to express how I feel but I will try to repay it by singing your favourite numbers,” she said.

Shreya was here to attend the 35th Banga Sammelan that is underway at GRB Convention Center, which was attended by over 6000 North American Bengalis from all over USA and various other artists from India.
