Singer Jonita Gandhi has been making waves in the music industry with her soulful voice. Born and raised in Canada, she decided to pursue a career in singing in Bollywood. Her journey, however, wasn’t without its challenges. In a recent interview, Jonita opened up about the tough times she faced when she first started out in the industry.
One such incident that left a sour taste in her mouth was when a music composer asked her to meet him alone. Jonita recalls the composer calling her and asking if she’d like to meet up. When she suggested bringing her mother along, he seemed taken aback. It became clear that he had expected her to come alone, which made Jonita uncomfortable.
A tough start to her career
Jonita’s experience is a reminder that the entertainment industry can be unforgiving, especially for newcomers. Despite her talent, she faced unwanted attention and propositions that made her question her decision to pursue a career in music. However, she persevered and went on to sing hit songs like “Pani Da Rang,” “Tujhko Jo Paaya,” and “Tum Hi Ho.”
Social media woes
Jonita also spoke about the dark side of social media, where she’s been subjected to unwanted attention and explicit content. She’s often tagged in inappropriate photos on Instagram, which can be disturbing. While she tries to ignore such incidents, they can still take a toll on her mental health.
This year, Jonita has lent her voice to films like “Chaava” and “Nadaaniyan.” She’s also sung in Punjabi and Tamil movies, showcasing her versatility as a singer. Despite the challenges she’s faced, Jonita remains committed to her craft, inspiring fans with her talent and resilience.
