Zeba Tommy – Interview | Lokah | RJ Adarsh | Radio Mango Talk Time

Queen of the hearts ever since Lokah, singer-songwriter Zeba Tommy in a freewheeling chat with RJ Adarsh on Radio Mango Talk Time. The Kerala State Film Award winner opens up about her musical journey, the process of writing from Chandra's perspective, and the magical collaboration with Jakes Bejoy. A true-blue indie music fan, the Neon Ride singer shares why writing is cathartic, how she dabbles in multiple languages, and why Adele brings tears to her eyes!
