It is a dream of every reputed play back singer to come out with a musical album in which the artist can make the kind of music that he or she likes the best and experiment a lot with the sounds and feel without restrictions.
Vocalist Madhusree has made her dream a reality on Friday at her residence when music Wizard A.R.Rahman, Gulzaar Saheb, Mani Ratnam and Shaan released her first non-film album titled as "Lagi Lagan".
She is today one of the hotshot singers in India having given her voice for famous songs in super hit films like 'Rang De Basanti', 'Kisna', 'Swades', 'Yuva', 'Kal Ho Na Ho', 'Kuchh Naa Kaho', 'Tehzeeb', 'Saathiya', 'Shivaji- The Boss', 'Jodhaa Akbar' etc.
The album Lagi Lagan is released by BIG Music in association with Crossword Bookstores.

"Laga Lagan" contains nine romantic songs composed by Madhusree's husband Robby Badal.
Aditya Pushkarana played the keyboards, Shyam Raj gave life to saxophone tunes and Dilshad played the Srangi.
On the launch of the album, Madhusree told that for more than one year she has put her heart and soul in making the songs.
She also expressed her gratitude to BIG Music and told that she is extremely happy as her fans and music lovers will now be able to hear the music.
The singer further spoke about the music style. She said that Thumri style of music was adopted as it is not understood by everyone in the present day.
So she and her team wanted to present Thumri in a way that will be understood by all kinds of people.
Notes from other styles such as Jazz, Latino and Western classical music have been incorporated in "Lagan Thumri".
