Ananya Birla wrote, "Guys, this has been the hardest decision. I have reached a stage where balancing both the businesses I run and am building + music is becoming near impossible and it's taking a toll on me in ways that I can't express. Thank you for all the love for the music I have released over the years. I hope one day we can appreciate English music made by our own people as there is so much talent in our own country. Thank you again. It's time I focus all my energies to the business world."
She captioned her post on Instagram as, "Unforgettable memories, thank you for all the love ❤️🩹🎵"

Ananya Birla talks about her musical journey
Ananya marked her presence at ABP Ideas Of India 3.0 Summit held in February, 2024.
Ananya Birla shared about her musical journey that began when she went to university at Oxford, where she was reading economics and management.
"And I spent a year and a half there, I went through a little bit of a tough phase with my mental health and I started gigging in cafes and pubs in and around London, Brixton Camden. It was when I realized that I was just so happy. It was very cathartic when I was writing my music and singing," she said.
