My family is a rather musicalone. My parents are musicians themselves and they are involved in the musicscene in Singapore, specifically so with Indian classical Carnatic Music. Mybrother is the only non-singer in our house. He plays the mridangam though buthas now graduated from college with a degree specialized in Computer science,mathematics and physics.
It has always felt so surreal that I now have my first ever song out. Truth be said, I had no idea any of this was happening. It was all a process, and with each passing step of the process, I eventually ended up with Rebirth. I definitely feel joyous, yet also very excited for everything else I have to do and work on along the way. There is so much more I can and do, so the release of this song has made me anticipatory and a lot more focused on my future projects.
Rebirth is a sort of amalgamation of everything that I have been going through in the last 4-5 years of my life. From moving abroad to study, to having to bid farewell to many people in my life and also re-claiming my own personal identity, this song captures my personal growth. It is literally about being born again through my music. I thus used the song to embody my journey from my teen years to adulthood, and my journey in self-discovery and seeking my own peace in my own journey in self-empowerment.
I read quite a bit. I read both social theory related texts, and fictional books alike. I also enjoy running, so I run every other day in the late evenings. I used to do theatre quite actively while I was at UWC Mahindra College; I miss this very much, but enjoy watching plays during my free time & also watching theatrical pieces/reading plays. Other than that, I love being around good food and people. I spend my free time with my kitten, Alaska.
I am passionate about issues to do inequality and wealth from a socio-legal perspective. This is also why I intend to attend law school after I complete my undergraduate degree. I also care about diversity and equal access to opportunity in different industries, especially the entertainment industry.
