Dridha (born Barbie Rajput) is a singer, songwriter, actress, poet, storyteller, and writer from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh. Singing professionally since the age of 7, she brings together a strong Hindustani classical base with years of experience in stage performance, reality TV (Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Lil Champs 2007, Challenge 2012), and a life immersed in folk, film, and sacred sound.
Since 2016, she has acted in television (Channel V), feature films, and ad campaigns, and is also trained in the Odissi dance form. She writes and sings in Hindi, Punjabi, and English—fusing literary depth and emotional clarity into music that feels both rooted and current. In 2017, she began releasing independent music toward storytelling that is intimate, culturally resonant, and spiritually alive. In 2022, she released an indie series project as a creator writer and director called "1960s Bombay". Her devotional work began in 2019 through raw, personal compositions shared on social media. That journey culminated in the 2025 release of songs like Celebration and Urmila, which draw from the Ramayana but carry a modern, emotionally honest sound and perspective. She is also the founder of Handful of Daisies, now a children’s storytelling platform and publication house that creates books, audio podcasts, and animated shorts rooted in cultural wisdom and emotional intelligence.
In 2025, she stands as a one-woman creative force—devoted to building art that is soulful, grounded, and entirely her own.
