"I love Bollywood and I love rap music, so I decided to collide both worlds and remake some of my favorite filmi songs into rap anms. Choli Ke Peeche Kya Hai is a CLASSIC and so I wanted to pair it with some modern wisdom I’ve gained over years. Growing up, I was often taught a “right” and “wrong” way to be a woman. I was told exposing your body too much isn’t good, fair skin is goal, having a tummy isn’t beautiful and subconsciously that or people could/would and should make judgments about you," said Lilly Singh on her Instagram.
