History Repeats Itself Again, For Farhan Akhtar
Here's the latest update from the world of Bollywood. We bet you wouldn't want to miss this. Read on for details... History Repeats Itself Again, For Farhan Akhtar
Farhan Akhtar, a multi-faceted actor, who dons several roles in the business of filmmaking, has lent his voice to the title track of Dil Dhadakne Do. The song has been penned by his sister, director Zoya Akhtar and father, Javed Akhtar. It was an impromptu decision to ask Farhan to sing. The actor-producer, who has been busy with Beejoy Nambiar's Do, took time off to record the number with composers Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy.
When contacted, Javed Akhtar confirms the story and says, "It's the title track of the film, which states that every heart has its own beat and every heart must follow its own rhythm. The lyrics I've written speak about an emotion that's attached with the way one wishes or desires to lead his life. It's a beautiful tune that Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy came up with. I just had to string along some words on it. Farhan has also sung it well."
Javed has previously written songs, which have been sung by Farhan, right from his acting-singing debut Rock On!! The tunes and the words have often been woven in such a way that it wonderfully encapsulates life without making it sounds complex or difficult for a lay listener. Did he keep Farhan's singing style in mind while writing this time too?
"I just had to keep the tune and the theme of the song in mind. Words of all degrees can be used but they must give out the right emotion, and must fall in line with the tune that has been created. And as a lyricist that is what I did ...I wove words into a marvellous tune that was created to capture the essence of Dil Dhadakne Do, which is the line that recurs in the song all along," says Javed.
