Ms. Aishwarya Natarajan, Founder of Indianuance, and Producer of HOME SOS, talks about how HOME SOS was born. She says “After the success of our music album ‘Home’, we recognized the need for a dynamic and engaging platform that uses music to convey the impact of individual and collective actions on the environment. We conceptualised HOME SOS to make sustainability relevant to the common person, busting myths about environmental crisis being a distant problem that can be solved at political, or economical scale. We also wanted to convey this message not through workshops or speeches but through the enchanting medium of music. Today, the show has evolved to become an immersive musical experience that is also a powerful, collective call to action and we can’t wait to share this with our audience! Together, we aim to create an impactful experience that inspires individuals and communities to make small behavioural shifts towards sustainability and spread the message across India.”
