Colours of Love – Ekta’s Debut Album

Ekta Rana’s debut album 2025, Colours of Love, is a deeply personal exploration of love in its many forms—family, self-love, romance, and spirituality. Each song captures a different aspect of love, from joy to heartbreak.

The album took on even deeper significance after the loss of Preet Nihal, the lyricist originally intended to write the lyrics, who passed away during production. Inspired by his memory, Ekta wrote her own lyrics, marking a significant creative turning point and pouring her heart into each song as she reflected on her own journey of self-discovery and emotional growth.

Colours of Love is a heartfelt gift to her listeners, made possible with the support of her crowdfunding backers.

The lush orchestral arrangements, blending Western and Indian influences, are produced by Kuljit Bhamra MBE, a British composer and producer.

With Colours of Love, Ekta shares her passion, growth, and gratitude, hoping that each song resonates deeply with her audience.
