Music career
Polani founded the singing group "HaTarnegolim" ("The Roosters") in 1960, in charge of musical and acting direction and choreography. The original group included Yehoram Gaon and HaGashash HaHiver. They were referred to in The Jerusalem Post as "one of the most exciting things that ever happened to Israeli pop. They brought us some of the greatest hits of all times". Among their hits are "The Neighborhood Song", "Everything's Gold" and "My Great Kid Yossi".  In 2011, she worked with a new iteration of the group.
