Sukriti Prakriti & Kakar
As cliched as it may sound, tell us how it feels to have a twin sister who does exactly the same thing as you?
Prakriti: We get asked about this a lot and each time I’d say it’s a blessing to have somebody that close to you do exactly the same thing as you because not only do you get comfortable knowing somebody understands all the good and bad days but you also stay motivated and focused. We try to work with as many different composers as we can otherwise some people tend to confuse our voices. But hopefully with the coming years and coming songs, people too will be able to differentiate our textures and styles in terms of singing.
Sukriti: It's really exciting to have someone right at home, someone as old as you, with the same passion and profession as you too! It's like living with your best friend and having the same job. At the end of our day, we have so much to share with each other, so much to learn from each other and also be each other's go-to persons at every given point! Being in an industry where there are the highest highs and lowest lows it's really comforting and amazing to have someone who's also family and is a constant support.
Right now, you are both in your high in Bollywood. Where or what do you see yourself doing 5 years down the line?
Prakriti: 5 years down the line, the plan is to be known for being somebody who prioritized Independent music just as much as playback. My aim in 5 years is for people to not instantly know what I sound like but also what I look like. As we know singers, especially playback singers often get overshadowed by actresses. In the coming years, I want to focus on making my music putting it out there and being the face to my voice.
