The answer by @Lri does not work for me, it shows error:

'atempo=1.2' is not a suitable output format

The next command works properly:

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -filter:a "atempo=2.0" -vn output.mkv

Taken from ffmpeg.org.

You can use the atempo filter in ffmpeg 1.0 and later:

ffmpeg -i input.wav -f:a atempo=1.25 output.wav

atempo only accepts values between 0.5 and 2.0, but you can bypass the limitation by chaining multiple filters:

ffmpeg -i input.wav -f:a atempo=2,atempo=1.5 output.wav

Solution : I tried SoundTouch library. I compiled it successfully for android but then I failed to use its function because I don't know how to use this library to load audio.

But after that I tried library called Sonic. Its basically for Speech as it use PSOLA algo to change pitch and tempo. But its ok.

Pitch and tempo are very strongly linked. What you're trying to do is called "time stretching", and is a somewhat complicated algorithm. You can find information online about it, and a java library for it can be found here, along with a paper describing the process.
