The Times Square Billboard was surely always a part of that dream for us and seeing it come to life, it is a surreal moment for us. Apart from pinching ourselves, and actually seeing the image of us on the billboard, the fact that it is for a cause that is to encourage equity for women in music globally, makes it even more special.”

Adding to this, Prakriti says that, “Representation of women in music, locally as well as globally has reached an all new platform of equity. Women deserve to be paid as much as men, given the same treatment as male singers and this association was just to empower that. It has made it to the most viewed billboard in the world, Times Square and we are so proud to be a part of this. As Indian artists, and also as young women, it is important for one to always believe in equity in order to see it becoming our reality.”
