Nikhita Gandhi has stolen many hearts with her unique voice from her very first song Ladio in an AR Rahman musical. During lockdown her #JugnuChallenge made people shake bodies with positivity. The songstress shares her journey from a rebellious student to a professional singer, her love for music and Chennai with Provoke Lifestyle Magazine
How do you feel being in Chennai after a long time?
I love it here and I'm feeling nostalgic to be back. I've not been staying here for many years, so I think my Tamil has become very rusty. I should eat dosas and have this conversation I guess (she laughs). I did my dentistry here and I'm a dentist, but now I don't practice it anymore
What's your new hairstyle all about?
I was experimenting with my hair during the lockdown. I make these myself. I wanted to colour my hair but the hair colourist sent me back home saying you're getting too experimental. So, I was trying to figure out how to do something cool with my hair and then I started doing these braids.
When did you start singing and any memories of earlier days?
I don't think I ever decided to be a singer, but my professional music journey started here in Chennai. I learned Hindustani music as a kid. I went to the KM Music Conservatory because I was bored of college. In the evenings, I would go and do some classes there and that's where I met AR Rahman sir. I started singing small scratches for him in different movies, and then my first song 'Ladio' happened.
