  R G Vijayasarathy spoke to the young singer, who confessed that she did not expect to win a National Award this time.

You have won your third National Award in a career spanning nine years. How do you feel about such a big achievement?

I think it is all due to God, and the blessings of my parents and fans. It is the listeners who make a singer popular and win prestigious awards. For me, appreciation of the audience is more important than these awards. What made me happy was that this song from Jab We Met became hugely popular. I thank the composer (Pritam) and all those who have been a part of the song, Shreya Said.
