From launching IndiaParenting.com in 1999, well before the dot-com boom, to finding her voice in the world of bhajans decades later, Nirali Sanghi has never been afraid to reinvent herself. A former corporate professional and now tech entrepreneur with an MBA in finance and marketing, she is now embracing her creative and spiritual sides with the same energy. She studied Economics and Computer Science in her undergraduate years, followed by an MBA from Columbia University, and has worked at The Boston Consulting Group and Citibank, experiences that helped her explore different facets of her personality. Her recent Bhajan Sandhya marked a personal milestone, an artistic reintroduction, and a reminder that it is never too late to explore something new. For Nirali, life is about breaking boundaries: one verse, one venture, and one unexpected shift at a time.
1. You’ve worn many hats: corporate professional, entrepreneur, and now a voice in the world of spiritual music. What inspired you to reintroduce yourself through this new path?
After working in the corporate world and building IndiaParenting.com, I spent many years focused on growth, performance, and responsibility. I have not slowed down at all on that front and my business pursuits continue actively. While I continue to explore entrepreneurial ideas, I also began feeling a quiet pull towards something more inward and personal. Bhajans and spiritual study gave me that space. Bhajan Sandhya was my way of honouring that shift. It felt important to reintroduce myself through something that came from the heart, not only through roles or achievements, but also through something real and deeply meaningful.
