Farhan Akhtar’s debut album ‘Echoes’ releases globally

The much-anticipated debut album ‘Echoes’ of Farhan Akhtar is globally launched today. While talking about the album Farhan said, “Over the last two years I felt a little bit of a burn-out setting in, just from working on films non-stop,” further he adds. “I just felt I needed some time out for myself, to reconnect with other things, to look at where my life’s at – I wanted to channel what I was feeling, and put it out there, just to share with people. And I found that process very cathartic.”

The album is deep and powerful, poignant and inspiring. It is a set of classic-sounding, self-written songs that reflect a childhood steeped in the greats of both Indian music, such as Kishore Kumar and Ravi Shankar, and of western rock and pop: The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton, David Bowie.

The multi-talented Farhan has been very keen to record his own album for a long time and finally, it happened with ‘Echoes’. Explaining the album’s title, the ‘Rock On’ actor said, “Echoes. It’s about chapters in my life and voices in my head that have influenced the writing. All of us have our personal journeys through life, through love. We struggle at times to make sense of our emotions and of the world around us. So here I am, speaking as honestly as I can about my journey.”

Farhan also took to his social media handle to announce the news and thanked everyone who collaborated and contributed to his journey.

Farhan is currently gearing up for his upcoming ‘The Sky Is Pink’ where the actor will be starring alongside Priyanka Chopra. Also, he will be seen in sports drama ‘Toofan’ for which he is going through rigorous training.
