“I feel that in a world

where everyone is trying

to be something they’re

not, we should stick close

to our roots and who we

truly are. Growing up in

the diaspora, my culture

became my identity.

Seeing other people wear

the Indian culture as a

‘costume’ or ‘gimmick’

pushed me to raise my

voice for the under-

represented South Asian

women. It awakened

me to educate others

about our culture with

authenticity and passion.

And I always put my

culture first through my

music, style, and art.”
