Aabha, a Sufi and folk singer hailing from Kashmir, passionately believes that her music brings a unique blend of modernism and traditional essence. One of her remarkable songs, "Hukus Bukus," gained immense popularity after being featured in the acclaimed web series, "The Family Man," leading to a surge in her phone notifications and widespread fame. The experience was overwhelming, keeping her sleepless for days, but Aabha remained grateful for the unexpected success. Kashmir, the land of her roots, holds a special place in Aabha's heart and serves as her ultimate muse. Despite being a corporate honcho in her past life, a profound emotional connection drew her back to her old home, where she rediscovered her true calling in music. Aabha decided to use her art to showcase the rich culture and stories of Kashmir, going beyond the stereotypical portrayal of the region associated with terrorism. #AabhaHanjura #TheFamilyMan #AabhaHanjurasongsHukusBukus
