Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti's production company Tiger Baby has joined hands with musician Ankur Tewari to launch their audio label Tiger Baby Records.
Zoya took to social media to share the news along with a poster. She wrote, ‘Compelling storytelling. Now in audio. @tigerbabyrecords’
According to a press release issued by the company, the vision is to create albums, Eps, and singles to music-driven documentaries, podcasts, and live events, and work with an array of artists to create fresh and bespoke musical projects.
‘We are excited to be delving into the audio world with Tiger Baby Records. The world of music represents an exciting opportunity and partnering with Ankur was an obvious and natural decision. We hope to continue to empower newer voices and create sounds that break the clutter, and our roster of releases will reflect that,’ Akhtar and Kagti said in a joint statement, according to news agency PTI.
Ankur Tewari has previously worked with Tiger Baby as a music supervisor on the film ‘Gully Boy’, the series ‘Made in Heaven’ and the yet-to-be-released Netflix movie ‘Archies’. In a statement, he said that he hopes to nurture homegrown talent and give them a platform to tell their stories.
Tiger Baby Records' plans to release four EPs focused on children's music with Tewari's 'Aaja Nindiya' being the first. The track will be released on March 24, 2023, on all streaming platforms, with the first single – the title track – releasing on March 17.
The label will release the six-track EP in collaboration with Platoon Music – an Apple-owned artist services, A&R (Artists and repertoire), and music distribution company.
