Shibani’s clearly loving the part about the newly-wedded bride bit and the traditional chooda on her hands is proof of that. “It looks so pretty and dresses me up. I’m a newly wedded bride, so I want to celebrate that,” says Shibani with a smile. The singer speaks to CS about her marriage, acting debut and musical aspirations:

A blessing in disguise
It’s a huge help that my husband is from the same profession. I don’t need to sit down and give explanations as to why I have to go for a late night event or why I might not be back till the wee hours of morning. So those things are a huge boon. I worked so hard for my career, that for me to give that up would be impossible. It has to be with someone who understands my passions and my dreams.
