We ot ad a crus on t e same person when we were teenagers!”

“Iwould take a bullet for the people I love,” echo both the Kakar twins, who share a close-knit dynamic in their professional life, too. While Sukriti has made a name for herself as a playback singer, thanks to songs such as Kar Gayi Chull, and Prakriti too has sung for films like Alone, the musical sisters have made waves singing together, especially with their latest work, an Indian remix of Dua Lipa’s Levitating.

The sisters are like two peas in a pod but their idiosyncrasies are individualistic. Prakriti drinks a lot of chai, cries easily and takes a long time to dress up. Sukriti loves her dog Popcorn, has his image tattooed on her arm and dances to her favourite song every morning to set the tone for the day. —DINESH RAHEJA

3. Her “never give up” attitude.

Do you listen to music to help you fall sleep? Sukriti: I take my sleep seriously, and I don’t need anything to put me to sleep.

Have you ever put up posters of your musical idols on your bedroom walls? Sukriti: My idols were Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Britney Spears. I would religiously buy their posters and new albums!

Prakriti: I don’t snore but I twitch, kick and talk in my sleep. I’ve heard that I even get into fights.

Sukriti: I hit snooze a couple of times until

I finally wake up. I keep changing my alarm tune so I don’t get bored of it.
