Jhalli

On this episode of Maed in India, Mae is joined in the studio by Mumbai’s very own Aaliyah Qureishi, a pop, rock and soul singer-songwriter who goes by the name of Jhalli. They chat about how she goes all-out defying gender roles to embrace her jhalli-ness, how one of the first songs she ever wrote was inspired by a dead frog, and making her Dadi’s catchphrase “Why should I?” the name of her debut EP, from which she performs 3 songs for you!
