Singer Shreya Ghoshal has described her recent visit to Maharashtra’s Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve as a “life-changing experience” after witnessing Bengal tigers in their natural habitat, including a tigress with her three cubs.
Sharing photographs and a video from the safari on social media, the singer recounted her excitement at spotting a tiger in the wild for the first time. She said her guide, Sandeep, located the well-camouflaged animal resting in tall grass, and the group waited patiently for it to emerge.
Shreya also shared her experience of seeing tigress Chhoti Madhu with her three cubs from close quarters, saying she could relate to the animal’s instincts as a mother.
“We also saw the beautiful Chhoti Madhu with her three cubs from so up close. I could so relate to her as a mom, she wanted to nap but still alert,” she wrote.
The singer thanked her husband, Shiladitya Mukhopadhyaya, for capturing the moments on camera and praised their driver, Farooq, and guide for making the experience memorable.
Describing the atmosphere inside the reserve, Shreya said the absence of mobile phones during the safari allowed her to experience the wilderness without distractions. She recalled the cool morning breeze, the fragrance of moist earth and the richness of the forest’s flora and fauna.
She was also impressed by the knowledge of local residents, particularly their understanding of wildlife, birds, insects and vegetation, and their respect for the forest ecosystem.
Calling the visit deeply humbling, she said the experience made her forget the worries of everyday life and expressed her desire to return to Tadoba.
Shreya’s comments on motherhood also reflect her own journey as a parent. She and Shiladitya welcomed their son, Devyaan, in May 2021. The singer has previously spoken about balancing her music career with parenting and described herself as a hands-on mother. Devyaan has also accompanied her on professional outings.
