Nikhita Gandhi: AR Rahman looks to be surprised | FacetimeFriday Interview
By Bryan Durham - September 8, 2018
Nikhita Gandhi is the sort of person you can talk about anything to. However silly, however profound the conversation, she’s never lost for words. We’ve come to know her better (or can claim to) a little better over the past year. This would, however, be our first full-fledged interview with a very busy playback singer (she has four songs out this past week, three feature on our charts) who makes time for her independent music projects as well. Our conversation ran through our usual banter (how people keep thinking she and Jonita Gandhi are related, debating if people don’t think beyond Bollywood music or not), why AR Rahman has a song for her in most of his biggest projects, ‘Humshakals’ – her debut single as a singer-composer-producer, the need for an alter-ego and what to expect from her musically as Niki G.
