Arjun Reddy fame Shalini has become a singer. She says Coming from a theatre background where you need to do everything, including singing, for your character, I was used to singing always.
Also, my mother taught music as a professor in a college and music was at home always for me. That helped. And that’s how I always loved singing. And when they asked me for the song, I thought ‘why not!‘.
For me, it has now become a bit easy to speak and converse in Telugu after having done a couple of films. And also, I keep hearing Telugu from my crew people. And I’m able to understand Tamil as well after 100% Kaadhal. And that helped me. Even though I’m unable to form sentences, I can understand about 80% of Telugu.
Actor Shalini Pandey, who made her debut with Arjun Reddy in Telugu and impressed everyone with her performance, makes her singing debut with a Telugu independent song titled Naa Praanamay. Shalini collaborates with a band named Lagori who are a Bengaluru based band.
