In 2021, the sisters collaborated with Dua Lipa and Amaal Mallik for an Indian remix version of the global hit Levitating, further expanding their international visibility.
Prakriti and Sukriti also achieved global recognition when their song Naari reached number two on the global Billboard charts in 2021. The same year, they performed at Times Square in New York City, marking an important milestone in their careers. In her personal life, Prakriti married entrepreneur Vinay Anand in January 2026 at Fort Barwara in Jaipur.
