Dr. Jagriti Luthra Prasanna, the founder and lead vocalist of Roohani Sisters, has been at the forefront of their musical journey.

Dr. Prasanna's background in music and her commitment to spreading the message of Sufism through music have garnered her recognition in the industry. The Roohani Sisters rendered many poetry accredited to Kabir, Ramdas and Mirabai - the medieval Indian saint to which most of them are self-attribute. Their poetries emphasize the transitory nature of life, non-attachment to the mundane, the inevitability of death, and salvation through devotion. They performed Nirgun Bhakti Sangeet. This form of worship was propagated by Nirgun saints through their writings and songs by breaking away the oppressive caste and gender hierarchy associated with temple worship of icons. The Roohani Sisters mostly play devotional music. Coming from a Hindu upbringing, they also acknowledge that music has no boundaries. Their music style is a fusion of different music genres consisting of Bhajans and Sufi renditions.
