Gifted musician Neluka, is an alumna of the prestigious Royal Academy of Music, London and now works as a music teacher. Apart from playing the piano and violin she likes to cook. She does however dislike argumentative people and know it alls! She also owns up to the fact that she has a terrible habit of leaving her handbag behind especially in restaurants!
