She was all of 18 years of age at that time. She stood out because of her ability to play multiple instruments at the same time. She was amicably called as the 'one woman band' by the then judges Sonali Bendre, Kirron Kher and Shekhar Kapur for she can collectively play the guitar, mouth organ and a tambourine while singing. She can also play the keyboard, which also happens to be the first instrument she ever played. She currently resides in Mumbai and working on multiple Bollywood projects.
