A recognized singer-songwriter, she has collaborated with major artists such as Ayra Starr, Yseult, Anitta, Banks, and Pabllo Vittar, and co-written the global hit track Alibi.

Entirely self-produced, the album explores themes of healing, grounding, and identity reconstruction. The single Tereketena, an ode to her cultural roots, was recently highlighted by Timbaland. A multifaceted artist, she is currently writing, directing, producing, and starring in her first feature film NARA, shot in Sri Lanka. She is also featured in an issue of Vogue India alongside other South Asian artists redefining the future of sound. Through her ability to create a dialogue between music, cinema, and storytelling with rare authenticity, Nilusi stands out as a singular voice of her generation, one to watch very closely.
