Singer Akriti Kakar is one of the lucky ones who had gone on a world tour with music maestros Kalyanji and Anandji in her childhood. But that's not why she is in the news these days.

The talented young singer has launched her very first namesake music album titled ‘Akriti', released by Sony Music.

Excited about her new launch, Akriti said: "Many people advised me to not release the album so soon, but I was adamant and I released it because I believe that if the product is good, people are bound to appreciate it exactly same way if the music is good, people will buy the album and listen to the songs. "

She further said the 7 songs in her album are all sung in varied moods.

"I have dedicated one song to Noorjahan Ji who was my inspiration and my mentor since childhood, " she said.

Out of the seven songs in the album, she has composed the music for 5 songs. Music sensation Shankar Mahadevan has composed the music for 2 songs.

"Shankar Ji has always supported me and he always encourages youngsters like me. I am very lucky and proud of the fact that he has composed the music for 2 of my songs in this music album, " she said.

Akriti likes listening to classical singer Kishori Amonkar and pop-icon Mariah Carey's songs in her free time.

Asked if she's nervous about the fate of her album, Akriti coolly said: "I have put in all my efforts to make sure my album comes out to be very unique and melodious. I am sure that my album would be able to strike the right chord with the audiences. "

Akriti has earlier sung songs in 2 albums- ‘Baby Doll' and ‘A-Teen'.

She is also playbacking for ‘Do Duni Char', ‘Pappu Can't Dance', and ‘Life isse gale laga le'.
