Shreya Ghoshal Voices Concerns Over Kolkata Doctor Assault Case
“I am deeply moved by the horrific and heinous incident that took place in Kolkata,” Shreya Ghoshal declared. As a woman, I find it unimaginable to consider the extreme cruelty she had to endure, and it makes my skin crawl. My promoters and I would want to postpone our show, “Shreya Ghoshal Live, All Hearts Tour Ishq FM Grand Concert,” which was initially slated for September 14, 2024, to October 20, 2024, with heavy hearts and sorrows.
“We were all very excited about this concert, but I feel that I must stand up and stand with you all in solidarity,” Shreya Ghoshal continued. Sincerely, I pray for women’s safety and respect throughout the world, not just in our own. I’m hoping that my friends and supporters would respect and agree with our choice to move forward with this show. As my band and I stand together against the evils of humanity, please stick with us. Please be patient as we announce the new date. The tickets you currently have will still be good for the new date. I’m excited to see everyone. Love, blessings, and optimism, Shreya Ghoshal
