About Sangeetha Rajeev
Sangeetha Rajeev (born 23 October 1990), also known professionally as SaRa, is an Indian playback singer, composer and independent music artist. She is known for her contributions to Kannada pop music (Ka-Pop) and is regarded as one of the first female independent artists in the Kannada music scene. In 2019, she received the Best International Pop Singer award at the VIMA Music Awards in Malaysia.
Rajeev has collaborated with several notable artists, including Sonu Nigam for the Kannada track "Neene Neene", which was later released in Hindi as "Tuhi Tuhi". Her single "Nee Hinga Nodabyada", which she wrote, composed and performed, gained widespread popularity and became one of the most recognisable tracks in the Kannada independent music space.
She has since expanded into other regional music industries, debuting in Telugu with the single "Naa Raju" and in Punjabi with the EP Rise (2023). In 2022, she was featured by YouTube as part of its "Creating for India" campaign, becoming the first artist from Karnataka to receive front-page coverage in major newspapers through the initiative.
Rajeev is also pursuing a career in acting, with upcoming roles in the Hindi film Red Collar and the Kannada film Nimitta Matra.
