A song he wrote 4 months even before Humsafar was written around four years back, Akhil says 'Gal Sun' is his personal favourite. He says the song is inspired from his life, like his superhit number, 'Humsafar' that was the fastest ever to touch a hundred million views in the history of Bollywood music.

In an exclusive chat with News18.com, Akhil spilled the beans about how he's coped up in life with the help of music, especially coming from a non-musical background.

"I was going through a phase at that time when I wrote many songs including Humsafar, Gal Sun and my next single with T-Series. I had a hunger to write more and that was indeed an important phase of my life. Even if you see the lyrics of the song, Manoj (Muntashir) sir has used fresh words, which are not commonly used," he said.
