Farhan Akhtar to perform live in Goa

New Delhi: Farhan Akhtar is returning to the live stage after a gap of almost two years to perform for Channel V's Nokia Indiafest college festival in Goa and he is looking forward to have a fun time.

"Last time I performed was maybe a year and a half back. It is something that I enjoy doing. I did get invited to perform but because I was working on various films, it was impossible to do that. But now I have a little bit of time and since the inclination has always been there, I want to explore on the musical front a little more," Farhan told us over the phone from Mumbai.

Akhtar is not new to stage as he performed at various events after the release of his film 'Rock On!' and the actor says he loves the energy and the connect with the audience during such events.

"We are going to chat with the audience and then sing some songs. This is possibly one of the biggest music events that happen in the country so I am looking forward to it. The kind of energy that you exchange with your audience is amazing," says Farhan.

The actor will take to stage with Ehsaan Noorani of the Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy trio.

The finale of the 2013 edition of the festival, which takes place on January 18 and 19, will have a host of celebrities participating.
