Chandrika Tandon’s latest album Ammu’s Treasures is a hug to the world

The story of how a globally recognised business leader became a Grammy nominated singer and humanitarian, is one filled with love and laughter.

Chandrika Krishnamurthy Tandon, the first Indian woman to make partner at the US-based management consulting company McKinsey, and older sister of former Pepsico Chief Indra Nooyi, went on a soul-searching journey over three decades ago. This prompted her to rethink the very essence of success. With deliberate intention, she wove music, acts of service, and meditation into the fabric of her business life.

“I remember sitting in a very serious business discussion and humming to myself because that’s what helps me think. I make up songs and tunes in my mind all the time. This is my happy place.” says Chandrika, who is currently in Chennai to establish the Boyd-Tandon Business School at her alma mater, Madras Christian College.
