Fifth House • Launched in October 2025, Fifth House is a consultancy and creative agency across music, art, film and fashion. They currently work with Simar,
SICKOFTHEINTERNET, Raaginder, and AKTV—spanning hop-hop to global sounds—and consult with artists on marketing, branding, creative direction, development, and PR.
In its first quarter, Fifth House launched two singles, collectively hitting over 700K streams in just two months. Content has already surpassed 5 million views across Instagram and TikTok, and releases have landed on major Spotify and Apple playlists—the only Punjabi artist featured on said playlists.
Bhav has always had a keen eye for talent. “I booked Talwiinder [at 5X] when he had around 500K followers.... Fast forward a year: he’s at nearly 7M.” Her work is dedicated to moving South Asian representation from tokenism to ownership, and creating economic pathways for South Asian talent.
“It’s about ensuring the next generation doesn’t have to fight for a seat at tables we’ve already built.”

A recent campaign saw a collaboration between the band Ghost and the Montréal Canadiens to market their Canada Skeletour stop. “During the Canadiens game, their iconic organist Diane Bibaud was dressed in Ghost regalia and played their hit ‘Mary On A Cross’ with Tobias Forge at her side. Complete with the Skeletour marketing across the arena and social media skit in tandem.” It was followed by custom Ghoul jerseys in Toronto and a Nardwuar interview in Vancouver.
