She thanked her parents Kamal Haasan and Sarika who encouraged her to pursue music. She said, "While growing up, my parents realized that I have a love towards Music. My dad himself is a fantastic singer and he would ask my favorite song and he would sing along with me.
My mother kept me disciplined and I learned Hindustani Classical music. I opted for Music instead of Mathematics during school days. So I owe everything to my parents to develop my passion for music. Playback singing doesn’t give me a high unless I can connect to the song."
