Music composer and singer Jasleen Royal points at the fact that there are few female composers in the Indian music industry.

“I want to see more women in key roles in our music industry. I want to see them taking Indian music scene to a higher level. Today, the situation is better — more female solo singers have come up, but there is still a lack of female composers. I really want to see that change in the upcoming time,” Jasleen told IANS.

Jasleen, who is the voice behind hits such as “Love you zindagi” (“Dear Zindagi”) and “Nachde ne saare” (“Baar Baar Dekho”), had created singles like “Panchhi ho javan”, “Mai ni” and “Din shagna da” before stepping into Bollywood. She had also appeared in the first season of the reality TV talent hunt show “India’s Got Talent”. One the show, she was given the tag of a one-woman band as she is able to collectively play different musical instruments while singing.

On recalling her journey so far and how she carved a niche for herself, Jasleen got emotional.

“I am really grateful for all the opportunities and for the people who gave me work. It’s been a long journey. I got a chance to work with Karan Johar sir and Zoya Akhtar ma’m at such an initial stage of my career. That was really something big for me,” she said.
