Singer Anjana, aka Anjana Padmanabhan, turns songwriter with her debut EP, ‘Yes No Maybe?’ The five-track EP explores the different emotional stages of love — from wondering whether it is worth pursuing to heartbreak, the need for space and, ultimately, choosing oneself. Rather than being about ‘finding someone externally’, the EP looks inward, exploring the insecurities and struggles we navigate every day.
With Yes No Maybe?, Anjana wanted to create music that was honest and reflective of her current state. “The EP talks about the questions we ask ourselves when it comes to love, relationships and even our own identity,” says the singer, who had long created melodies without developing them into full-fledged songs.
