Electronic music producer doll released by American Girl

Mattel, the US toy company famous for the Barbie doll, is releasing an electronic music producer doll under the American Girl brand.

The new character is named Kavi Sharma and is introduced as the company's 2023 "Girl of the Year". She was created in collaboration with author Varsha Bajaj, who developed a backstory for the 12-year-old character growing up with Indian-American cultural traditions and holding electronic music and performing aspirations. 

“Kavi’s story is important to all the young readers who will see parts of their lives represented," Bajaj said in the press release. "I took immense delight in showcasing slivers of Indian culture, including dance, yoga traditions, food, clothing, and magical festivals like Diwali and Holi."

Among the accessories available for Kavi Sharma is her "songwriting kit", which includes a keyboard synthesiser that plays several tones, drum pad, laptop displaying production software and a mic.
