Body text: "She's been Miss India-Canada 2004, but this singer-songwriter hasn't bothered resting on her tiaras. One listen at her Myspace page and we fell in love with that fresh voice coming out of those Jolie-like lips (yes, she's single). She's no American Idol wannabe either. Parul's sung all over Canada, where she's from, besides having co-written and recorded with producers such as 2002 JUNO award-winning Songwriter of the Year, Russell Broom (he's also worked with Josh Groban and Sam Roberts). So when's she coming to India? "I'd love to perform in India!" she says, "I've started to build a fan base in India, and hope to sign a record deal. Of course, if I had a sponsor, I'd be there in a heart-beat!" Showing her pictures to our CEO right away..."
