Jagriti actress Rachana Mistry on World Music Day says, ‘Music is emotion, connection and healing'
World Music Day, celebrated on June 21st, honours the timeless, universal language of music—something that connects hearts across cultures without needing translation. On this special occasion, television actress Rachana Mistry, who currently portrays the titular role in Jagriti – Ek Nayi Subah, shared a deeply personal reflection on how music has shaped her life and creativity.
'Some of the most beautiful moments in my life have been wrapped in music,' Rachana shared. 'Quiet evenings with soft classical tunes playing in the background, long walks where lyrics echoed my thoughts, and childhood memories of humming lullabies with my mother.'
For Rachana, music is more than just entertainment—it's her emotional anchor, both on-screen and off. 'I've always believed that music isn't just sound—it's emotion, connection, and healing,' she said.
Even during her intense acting scenes, she often turns to music to find focus. 'When I'm working through a complex scene, I sometimes listen to instrumental or classical pieces to centre myself.'
She is particularly drawn to the way music transcends language. 'What fascinates me most is how music transcends language—you don't need to understand the words to feel the emotion. That's true magic,' she explained.
On this World Music Day, Rachana hopes to celebrate music's quiet power. 'Whether you're dancing in your room, playing a flute under a tree, or simply listening in silence, music speaks. Always.'
As the voice behind Jagriti – Ek Nayi Subah, a show rooted in hope and resilience, Rachana's sentiments echo the very spirit of music—one of healing, unity, and emotion that lingers long after the last note fades.
