New Delhi, March 4 -- Indian playback singer Shreya Ghoshal has addressed online criticism after comments she made about singing so-called "raunchy" songs, including the hit Bollywood track Chikni Chameli.

Speaking recently on entrepreneur Raj Shamani's podcast, Ghoshal said that while she is not embarrassed by the song, she would not record similar tracks today.

The singer explained that after the success of Chikni Chameli, she began receiving offers for songs whose lyrics she felt were overtly objectifying.

She recalled that a composer friend once suggested a track with explicit lines. The lyrics, she said, included phrases such as "make me into chicken and eat me" and "hold me like this," which she felt uncomfortable recording.
