Talking about the project, Shalmali says, “I have always had a vivid sense of imagery. When I took a few important people’s opinions on whether I should direct my own video, one man in particular — Mikey McCleary (songwriter-composer) — urged me to don the director’s hat.”

Mikey told her that no one would be able to visualise her track like she could. “He also told me that the learning graph would be huge. So, I took it upon myself to learn all I could in order to direct my first video,” she adds.
