Pop singer Mila has become a familiar name to young music fans. Her vivacious personality comes across in her songs and music videos. "I felt a connection with music when I was a child. My mother was a Nazrul singer. Almost everyday, before going to the school, I used to practice on the harmonium," said Mila.Practicing music was going well for the youngster until she got to class 5. "With academic pressures building up, I had very little time for music," Mila said. "Despite the mounting pressure, I would find opportunities to sing. At any social occasion, family gathering or school programme I would sing," she added.
