How One Comment Sparked a Song – The Story of Asuya
Ever heard a comment so subtle yet so powerful that it made you rethink everything? Indo-Canadian singer, Hanishka Polimera did. Working in a Toronto office as a software developer, she often heard her colleague say, “English will never fully belong to people with accents.” She ignored it—until one day, when she mentioned that this colleague reminded her of a close friend. The response? “Is she from your background? I hope she doesn’t have that thick accent.”
That moment hit differently. It wasn’t just about accents—it was about a quiet, underlying jealousy disguised as casual conversation.
And that’s how Asuya was born. A song that isn’t just about envy—it’s about the power of words and how they stick with us. With its captivating melody and deep lyrics, Asuya is Hanishka’s debut single, proving that real-life moments make the most powerful music.
With over 200,000 views on YouTube, Asuya has already struck a chord. And this is just the beginning. Hanishka is blending Indian roots, Telugu artistry, and global sounds into music that speaks to people across cultures.
Listen to Asuya and let us know—has a comment ever stayed with you longer than you expected?
