1/6
Farhan Akhtar - A true renaissance man, Farhan Akhtar wears many hats — actor, director, producer, writer — and, impressively, a rock vocalist. As the lead singer of Farhan Live, he has performed across the globe, delivering powerful anthems like “Rock On!!,” “Socha Hai,” and “Senorita.” His raw voice and energetic performances give him the edge of a true rockstar, making him as magnetic on stage as he is on screen.
2/6
Known for her radiant presence and relatable characters, Shraddha Kapoor is also a trained singer. Her soothing rendition of “Galliyan (Unplugged)” from Ek Villain and the romantic “Sab Tera” from Baaghi proved she’s more than just an actress — she’s a soulful vocalist. With a voice that’s both sweet and emotive, Shraddha adds musical charm to her cinematic appeal.
3/6
Aparshakti Khurrana - Aparshakti has long been admired for his comic timing and charismatic roles, but his musical side is equally engaging. He’s released several indie-pop hits like “Kudiye Ni,” “Zaroor,” “Lafzaan,” and “First Sight Wala Love,” all of which showcase his smooth, modern vocal style. His songs often blend heartfelt lyrics with breezy melodies, proving he’s not just riding his brother Ayushmann’s musical coattails — he’s carving his own path.
4/6
Alia Bhatt - Alia Bhatt continues to surprise audiences with her talents. Beyond delivering some of Bollywood’s most memorable performances, she’s wowed listeners with her vocals in “Samjhawan Unplugged” and “Ikk Kudi.” Her expressive singing mirrors her emotional depth as an actor, turning each song into a tender narrative in itself.
5/6
A fresh face on the block, Vedang Raina impressed in The Archies, not just for his acting but for his singing. With tracks like “Everything Is Politics” and the Jigra soundtrack, including “Phoolon Ka Taron Ka” and the “Jigra Title Track,” Vedang has already begun to make waves as a dual-threat performer in Bollywood’s next generation.
6/6
Priyanka Chopra - A global icon, Priyanka Chopra Jonas has conquered both Bollywood and the international music scene. Her singles “Exotic” (featuring Pitbull) and “In My City” introduced her pop prowess, while her vocals in “Dil Dhadakne Do” added emotional gravitas. Her journey from Miss World to global entertainer exemplifies what it means to be truly multifaceted.
