We spent a quiet morning with Gini, the rising 19-year-old singer-songwriter who’s reshaping Indian pop. This is the first home she’s ever lived in by herself—and she invited us in.

The young singer-songwriter talks Mumbai, the weight of success, and introduces us to her stuffed toy family. She also shares the moving story behind her debut song 'falling asleep', and gives us a special preview of her new song, 'Naadaani'.

Gini is an introspective storyteller, guided by emotional sensibility and calmness. At just 19, with her gently profound music, she is leading a new generation of musicians bringing thoughtful minimalism into Indian pop. Through this meeting, we got to know her a little better.
