Jonita Gandhi: From Toronto to tinsel town #Coverstars

Jonita Gandhi is among the first crop of singers who started off by singing cover versions of Bollywood song on YouTube

Jonita Gandhi can be called one of the pioneers in this field. When she started off in 2010, YouTube videos were far from the stylized, sleek and professional versions of today. These were home-made amateur videos put together by youngsters experimenting with the medium. “I posted my first video simply because YouTube was the new fun exciting thing and I had absolutely zero idea about its potentials. I used to watch these home videos people were putting up and thought to myself that oh this is pretty cool! So I shot some random selfie videos in my basement and posted them,” says Jonita, who grew up in Brampton, Canada but always carried a piece of Bollywood in her heart.
