Mini bio

How it started.

Neha began singing bhajans and aartis at religious gatherings as a small child. In a 2015 interview, she said those early audiences helped build her confidence. She learned through performing rather than formal music training, and looked to her elder sister Sonu Kakkar for guidance.

Finding her voice.

Indian Idol season two introduced her to a wider audience. Her breakthrough came with Second Hand Jawaani from Cocktail in 2012, followed by songs including Sunny Sunny and London Thumakda. Her catalogue grew to include the romantic Mile Ho Tum reprise and dance tracks such as Kala Chashma and Dilbar.

Back on the judging panel.

In 2018, she returned to Indian Idol as a judge for its tenth season. She told The Tribune that having been a contestant herself helped her connect with the singers. Alongside film songs, she releases independent singles and shares music videos through her own channel.
