By the time I went to college, I had totally embraced my Indianness, but I still didn't tell anyone I could sing.

I grew up listening to dappan koothu songs and loved the fun party vibes they gave.

Music has been my way of expressing what I've been feeling.

I love mixing Indian and Western.

I was teased about Indian food and the colour of my skin and why my knees and elbows were dark.

My mom took my sister and I to music classes. We used to hate practising as kids but my grandma used to make it fun by playing musical games with us.

I can be a mix of both. I don't have to be an Indian or an American. They're not mutually exclusive. It's something growing up I didn't know.

It's very important to me to stay true to who I am as a musician and the songs that I love.

My mother had to make an unconventional decision. We had to run away from home. She made a really difficult decision to leave financial stability behind and undertake raising two girls on her own.

I was actually going for the pre-medicine track and studying for my MCATs and then I decided to follow my passion, which was music. So I moved to India after college to re-immerse myself in Indian music.
