While the 30-year-old continues to collaborate with her composer brother Tony Kakkar, her latest project is T-Series MixTape Season 2 presented by Amazon Prime Music, where she has performed with Guru Randhawa and Millind Gaba.
On the sidelines of MixTape, Neha sat down for an exclusive interaction with indianexpress.com, where she opened up about being the voice of recreated songs, getting typecast and whether being a woman in the music industry is easy.
Q. You have become popular. How does it feel getting so much love?

It definitely feels great. My journey started as a contestant on a reality show and now my voice and songs are getting so popular which feels good. My hard work, talent and luck have supported me.
Q. How difficult is it for a reality show contestant to make a name?
It is difficult for anybody, not just a reality show contestant. If I am one of the most celebrated singers, its because not only do I have the talent, but even luck and hard work, which matter.
Q. You are the voice of recreated songs right now. But since they are remixes, such songs dont have a shelf life. Do you feel your voice might get lost in the crowd eventually?

People love my voice. I am the number one singer globally on YouTube. No one will reach the number one position just like that. And I dont only have recreated songs. In fact in my kitty, I have the most liked Indian song ever on YouTube – “Mile Ho Tum Humko”, which is an original song created by my brother Tony Kakkar. Then, last year I sang “Oh Humsafar” which is an original and so is “Nikle Current” which was my single.
Q. But dont you ever fear getting typecast in remixes or singing only peppy numbers?
Not at all! In fact, my most loved song is a slow romantic song.
