Aditi Saigal Instagram – Indie musician and actor Dot., who’s on The Word. ‘Who’s Creative Now’ 2024 list, confesses to not knowing very much about style—“I just fall in love with my clothes and enjoy their company. I like clothes that have a story.”
However, Dot. (aka Aditi Saigal) knows a lot about music, having started playing the piano at the age of 6, composing songs at 12, releasing a now viral hit ‘Everybody Dances to Techno’ in 2017, and making her acting debut in Zoya Akhtar’s musical ‘The Archies’ [2023], where she essayed the role of Ethel.
In March last year, Dot. released her first single ‘Indigo’, followed by the ‘Bangor to Bombay’ Tour in April, with five shows across five cities. Her voice and unmissable presence lend Dot. a distinct presence…one to keep an eye on.
As for recent achievements she is proud of, Dot. reveals, “Learning how to dance on skates and then performing ‘Dhishoom Dhishoom’ in The Archies [2023] was a pretty big deal for me. I worked very hard and fell a lot in the process.” This year has already seen the release of her latest single ‘Girls Night’ and will see more before the release of her next album, ‘Sea Creature on the Sofa’, in 2025.
The Word. Magazine is pleased to present ‘Who’s Creative Now’ 2024…a celebration of the coolest, freshest creative names of the year. These are the ones to watch: actors, designers, creators, comedians, chefs, and more, who are standing out for their work in the creative field.
They are the final Word.
