    SZA is set to embark on a 10-day vow of silence in India

    The 35-year-old singer-songwriter - whose real name Solána Imani Rowe - took to Instagram to reveal her plans for the vow of silence ahead of the release of her debut movie 'One of Them Days'


    She wrote on Instagram: "Man listen. I'm in India and they 'bout to take my phone in 7 hours for a 10 day vow of silence, but I COULD NOT MISS RELEASE DAY !! I swear to God this was the most unique experience of my entire life!"

    She praised producer Issa Rae and costar Keke Palmer, and said: "When I signed on for this movie I literally didn't think a single thing through other than 'gaddamn I love Issa and Keke what an honor.' I didn't think of how I was actively on tour and wouldn't get to rehearse or prepare, I didn't think how I had a deluxe to finish or factor in that I actually had to be on camera at any point (like duh, dummy.) That sounds insane but that's how much I love respect and admire these women !! NO THOUGHTS JUST YES."

    She also went on to praise the rest of the team involved with the movie for guiding her through the "transformative experience".

    She wrote: "@tiffanyblackness you're the best acting coach I could ever ask for ! We literally met on set ??you whipped me into shape in real time .. ur a [goat]!!Coming out of my shell ,facing myself and the world for this movie has been a transformative experience.

    "Every step of the way I shed more skin and gain more respect for the process . @keke you are a blessing . everyday. Thank you for taking time to get to know me and see me beyond preconceived notions . You held me down in ways I'll never be able to post (let's just say if it gotta go down, it will). Ur a girls girl and not for play . @issarae and @lawrencelamont thank you for seeing something in me at any point !!

    "Yall are insane for picking someone w NO acting experience to co star but!!! I CAN NEVER THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR YOUR PATIENCE TRUST AND UNDERSTANDING. I need you both to know, this changed my life."
