His name could replace the dictionary meaning of ‘cool’.
In conversation at Algebra, Farhan Akhtar was everything we thought he was going to be. And more.
Funny, but also insightful. Charming, but also candid. Self-aware, but also self-deprecating.
In an intimate conversation that covered everything from his parents’ divorce to his sister Zoya’s bullying and his very special relationship with music, Farhan exemplified just why both men and women – and this was evident in the gender-neutral catcalls he received from the audience – can’t get enough of him.And this was before he’d even picked up his guitar. When he did, the hall went wild and you were reminded that for all his easygoing charm, this man answers to the word rockstar like few others.
For a glimpse of the Akhtar magic, watch the full session above.

Algebra, the Arts & Ideas Club brings together a fellowship of people who believe great cities are built not just on infrastructure but a life of the mind; who understand robust and liberal societies need the oxygen of great conversation and nuanced thinking.
At a time when we are increasingly surrounded by rage and noise, Algebra is a live and continuous space for people to come together for a genuine exchange of ideas and exposure to issues; where new seeds could be sparked, fresh perspectives formed, and intelligent connections made.
Algebra – the Arts and Ideas Club is designed to host almost 35 engagements over the year with topline thinkers and practitioners from almost every discipline that impacts human affairs: politics, economy, environment, spirituality, cinema, medicine, science, technology, music, media, literature, the arts, sports, people’s movements, et al.
