She contributed actively in the research of the "Relationship between Brain, Music & Language" at Neurosciences University, San Diego & the 'Study of Tabla, Aesthetics & complexities' at the Harvard Science Center (USA).
Being the first lady in the male-dominated world of Tabla players, she has broken the myth about the Tabla being a No-Go zone for women, thereby shattering gender biases and empowering women to pursue more creative paths.
Her all-female group, 'Stree Shakti' has also been integral to providing performance opportunities & empowering other women musicians as well as earning praise from critics and aficionados alike.
Coming from a family with no prior musical background, she has inspired people all over the world to pursue careers in the Performing Arts, despite having no prior exposure or family background in their fields of choice.
It is for these reasons that the Asian-American/ Indo American Who's Who Journal lauded her for 'her well balanced musicianship and pioneering contribution as a trail blazer and trend setter for societies around the World'.
