I'm the kind of artiste who often ignores sensible advice, says Dot

Indie musician and actress Aditi Saigal also known as Dot is the most engaged Gen Z actor-artiste of the country. With a staggering engagement rate of 24-26 per cent on her posts, Dot, who shot to fame with her acting as well as musical talent in Zoya Akhtar’s directorial The Archies, has emerged as a breakthrough artiste of the year.

She composes, sings and writes the lyrics of all her songs. Dot has been topping the Indian music charts with her Archies songs too. She has written and sang all four Dear Diary themes picturised on Khushi Kapoor, as well as lent her voice to the character of Betty (Khushi), singing and composing the song Asymmetrical.

She has also sung the other two chartbusters Dhishoom Dhishoom and Sunoh. These two songs are among the top-listened songs of India across all music platforms.

Dot says, “I’ve always said that I’ve been lucky enough that social media has always been kind to me. Since the beginning, the kind of love I’ve gotten from people for my music has been nothing but heartwarming. I used to call it ‘my little corner of the internet’. Of course, since The Archies, it’s definitely expanding.”

“Whether it’s music, more films, or some other venture, it’s hard not to look back at it all and be grateful to the people following along. Especially since I’m the kind of artiste who often ignores sensible advice and does whatever in the world she feels like,” she adds.

Dot has recently released a new single, titled Girls Night.
