Meenu’s journey as a lyricist began in 1996. “I met singer-composer Bali Brahmbhatt and he liked my collection of songs and I got my first break. His song Kook Kook Kooky, which I penned became a big hit.” After that there was no looking back, she says. “I worked with Bappi Lahiri, Daler Mehandi, Mika, Mahender Kapoor, Labh Janjua and others.” She has written the lyrics for the movies Chor Machaye Shor; String and Topless.
