For today’s Global Hit, we meet an up-and-coming personality in London’s underground music scene. She goes by the name, Bishi nd she makes Indian-influenced club music. But Andrea Smardon reports that Bishi is as comfortable in a sequin bikini as she is in a traditional Indian sari.
Picture an Indian woman in her early twenties sitting on the floor, barefoot, holding a traditional sitar. Now imagine her full figure accentuated by a sheer silver dress, her hair done up about six inches high like a tropical bird, her eyes outlined in black, her lips glossed in pink.
