With an ensemble cast comes an ensemble of singers, whom Akhtar’s strong voice works perfectly alongside. When Zoya Akhtar put her brother, Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Anil Kapoor together on screen for a dance track, there could be no better song than Gallan Goodiyan. Gallan Goodiyan – ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ (2015) Being an ultimate holiday track, with Spanish influences reflecting on the film’s location, it’s fair to say, this is one of their finest moments to date. Hitting number one as soon as it was released, Senorita was the brilliant fun dance track of the year, where all three voices of Akhtar, Hrithik Roshan and Abhay Deol, though being so different from one another, wrecked surprisingly well together. Señorita – ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ (2011)Ī Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy soundtrack is always guaranteed fun, and when the trio convinced the three main actors of the film to get behind the mic, there were sure to be fireworks. An upbeat, rhythmic and a well-written song, have everyone swaying their heads and tapping their feet to the beat. Mixing the strums of an eclectic guitar and drums along with some brilliant background vocals, worked very well with Akhtar’s distinctive voice. Though ‘Rock On’ was a film focusing on a rock band, Socha Hai was the song that resonated with both. With his first mainstream soundtrack, there was a lot of buzz around what Akhtar’s singing voice would sound like. Having risen to fame with a film in which he leads musical talent to the soundtrack, Akhtar has only gotten better as more opportunities have come his way.Īs he celebrates his 48th birthday, takes a look at some of his best vocal works. However, though his acting and film making skills have won him huge acclaim, the apple doesn’t seem to fall far from the tree when it comes to music. He may be the son of one of the Indian Film Industry’s most celebrated lyricists, but Farhan Akhtar has surely made a name for himself detached from that of his father’s.
