The song is inspired by an article Fahan had come across on Peshawar attack. The article was about a young boy who pretended to be sick in order to bunk school and stay home and at the very same day the Taliban stormed into an army school and shot over 200 children. Post the attacks a strange dilemma for a young boy he might have been through - 'that could have been me in place of my brother' he must have thought. The song is from the perspective of that younger brother.

Earlier in September, Farhan had released his first English single Rear View Mirror and Jaane Ye Kyun Kiya his first Hindi single which garnered immense appreciation from the audience from all corners.

Farhan had made his debut with Rock On!! as not only actor but also singer. Farhan has been doing many concerts not just in India but at UK and US as well where he has received immense love from his fans.

The actor will be next seen in "The Sky Is Pink' co-starring Priyanka Chopra.
