Embarking on her musical career at the age of seven, Shefali Ghosh gained tremendous popularity for the 'dramatic presentation' of regional songs of Chittagong.

Shefali's songs, such as O shama rengune na jaiyo, Orey shampanwala, Jodi shundor ekkhan mukh paitam and others depict the history, tradition and culture of the people of Chittagong. Malka banur deshe rey, a song by Shefali, has become an integral part of wedding celebrations in rural Bangladesh. Shefali and co-singer Shyamshundar Baishnab created ripples in the '70s in the music scene.

A singer of Swadhin Bangla Betar Kendra, Shefali has been centre stage in many historical moments of the country. She rendered songs during the inauguration of the television centres at Rampura, Dhaka and Chittagong.
