As reported by ETimes, the singer has been facilitating surgeries since she was seven years old.
She reflected on her journey and said, "When I started the mission, it was just a small initiative that a seven-year-old me took back then, and now it has become the biggest mission of my life. I still have 413 kids on my waiting list. Every concert I do is dedicated to the heart surgeries of children whose parents cannot afford the expenses. It feels like a responsibility. I am really happy that God chose me as a medium to do this."
She continued, "When I didn't have work as a singer for film music, I would sing for three hours and collect donations for just one kid. As my songs started becoming popular, my fees increased. I would make money with which I could fund 13–14 surgeries with just one concert. So, I continued it. I have always seen singing as a medium to be able to bring a change in society."
Palak Muchhal is a singer and lyricist from Indore. She is best known for her songs like 'Kaun Tujhe', 'Naiyo Lagda', 'Hua Hain Aaj Pehli Baar' and 'Dhokha Dhadi'. She is married to music composer Mithoon Sharma aka Mithoon.
