contents Sonoluminescence is a well known laboratory phenomenon where an oscillating gas bubble in the appropriate environment periodically emits a flash of light in the visible frequency range. In this submission, we study the system in the framework of analog gravity. We model the oscillating bubble in terms of analog geometry and propose a non-minimal coupling prescription of the electromagnetic field with the geometry. The geometry behaves as an analogous oscillating time dependent background in which repeated flux of photons are produced in a wide frequency range through parametric resonance from quantum vacuum. Due to our numerical limitation, we could reach the frequency up to $\sim 10^5 ~\mbox{m}^{-1}$. However, we numerically fit the spectrum in a polynomial form including the observed frequency range around $\sim 10^7 ~\mbox{m}^{-1}$. Our current analysis seems to suggest that parametric resonance in analog background may play a fundamental role in explaining such phenomena in the quantum field theory framework.
