Life, Values & Legacy: Our Chat with Sakshi Chopra of Hollywood

Sakshi Chopra shared their story and experiences with us recently and you can find our conversation below.

Sakshi, it’s always a pleasure to learn from you and your journey. Let’s start with a bit of a warmup: What makes you lose track of time—and find yourself again?
Writing music makes me lose all sense of time. It’s the one place I feel completely present & free, everything else fades until only the song & I exist.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I’m Sakshi Chopra, an Indian singer-songwriter & I belly dance. My music fuses pop and RnB with the pulse of my Indian roots, tabla, the flute, Hindi phrasing & trap production colliding in one sound. My songs explore power, femininity & also shaking ass.

Okay, so here’s a deep one: Who saw you clearly before you could see yourself?
My mother’s over confidence in me. 😉

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
There really is no escape to the human experience. No matter how much money, rage, power no one can avoid the reality of life, the only two truths, death & change.

I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. What’s a belief or project you’re committed to, no matter how long it takes?
My musical journey & feminism

Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. If you laid down your name, role, and possessions—what would remain?
Pieces of my soul I’ve left inside every song. Each one is like a musical horcrux, carrying a fragment of who I was at that moment, immortalized in sound.
