Baani Sandhu Facts
She got interested in music around the age of 5.
She grew up in Mohali, Punjab, India.
Her parents weren’t on board of her pursuing her passion for music and suggested she focus on her education.
Before her music career took off, Baani was a teacher and taught Mathematics and Physics to intermediate students.
A lot of her songs were written by a well-known singer and lyricist, Jassi Lohka, who discovered her on social media. He also wrote songs for singers such as Aarsh Benipal, Gippy Grewal, Sharry Mann, Virasat Sandhu, and Amit “Ninja” Bhalla.
She released her debut song titled Fauji Di Bandook, on April 28, 2018.
Her song Thar Jatti Di was a part of the soundtrack for the movie Ardab Mutiyaran (2019).
Baani has amassed a fanbase of more than 800k followers and more than 12 million likes on TikTok.
She once revealed that her dream collaboration would be with Surjit Bindrakhia. Unfortunately, he passed away on November 17, 2003.
Baani and fellow Punjabi singer Kaur B were “humiliated and mistreated” in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia in July 2019. They were part of a ladies-only event called Jhanjhara da Shor and attended the Meet & Greet portion after it ended. Kaur’s brother Amar Dhillon was shoved and beaten, they were berated, and chaos ensued. Organizers refused to acknowledge anything that happened.
She has amassed a fanbase of more than 600k followers on Instagram.
She made a strawberry cake when her song 8 Parche passed 100 million views on YouTube. The song later garnered more than 250 million views.
