Ufaan is the sound of a indie India rising — raw, restless and handmade.
No label. No PR team. Just stories, honesty, and 4 millenial friends from different corners of India, in their 30s, crafting what they believe is one of the most personal Hindi indie records in recent memory.
For some, this will feel like coming home. For others, like finally opening the door.

Ufaan — Album Artwork
</aside>
<aside>
Ufaan (उफान), meaning ebullience, is the musical eruption of a small-town soul who's carried years of emotion, failure, frustration — and hope. "Ufaan” a personal storm that's been building silently, and now, it pours out as sound.
The sound of Ufaan has evolved over nearly a decade in our struggle to keep the music alive. It's like a dusty diary forgotten in a garage, now reopened and rediscovered. It all started when Somanshu moved to Pune in 2014. From writing on rooftops in Gwalior while watching sunsets, from raw acoustic sounds to a folkish, alt-pop rock blend, Ufaan invokes a feeling of freedom.
Ufaan explores themes of longing, nostalgia, and inner growth — a true reflection of what it feels like to be away from home, struggles, friendship, nostalgia, missing home, introspection, emotional unraveling, failures, rediscovering belief, the celebration of life, It’s a carefree rebellion, and the ache of searching for what's lost.
