• While doing her graduation, Jonita went under an internship at ‘CIBC World Markets.’

  Even though western classical music is very different from Indian classical music, I have been able to use it to my advantage and that’s what makes me unique. In Bollywood, Indian classical singers aren’t valued as much as people who are versatile in other genres.”
