I look forward to doing singing more Hindi songs. I think I have to learn the language a lot more, and I am working on it. I had to learn the words and pronunciation in a day.
I can’t describe what I felt when I got the opportunity to be a part of Shiddat’s new track.
We grew up watching Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan and often sing songs from Hindi films, too. We watch a lot of Hindi movies in Sri Lanka. Recently, you debuted in the Bollywood music industry with the title track of Shiddat. You have spoken about your love for Hindi film music many times. I hope people like my upcoming music as well. Even though I was introduced to many people with Manike, I’m proud that I have a repertoire to perform for a live audience. I’m also very grateful that we could tour India and perform for a live audience. Then one day, Amitabh Bachchan tweeted about my song, and things changed overnight. When the song first reached 25 million views, we were all very excited. When did you realise that the song had gone viral? Then, I picked up a guitar and learned how to play by watching videos online. My mother enrolled me for piano classes, and that is how I got into music. My parents pushed us to do many extracurricular activities. I tried my hand at polo, swimming, synchronised swimming, Wushu and many other things. I was in the Western brass band and I played the trumpet and French horn, but back then, I was more into sports. You were in a band when you were in school. In an exclusive interview with Bombay Times, the 28-year-old Sri Lankan singer-composer talks about how Amitabh Bachchan’s tweet about her song changed things overnight, her music, being a sportsperson and more. Recently, the Sri Lankan music artiste toured multiple Indian cities and even made an appearance on the reality show hosted by Salman Khan for her popular track. From learning to play the guitar by watching videos online to becoming an overnight sensation with her rendition of Manike Mage Hithe, Yohani has come a long way indeed.
