Shammi ji has beautifully composed the song with Charanjeet ji’s lyrics giving it that magical touch.”
Singer Dhvani adds, “It is an honour to sing alongside Rahat Fateh Ali Sahab. It was great working under the baton of music director Shammi Tandon. It has truly been an experience that I will cherish forever. I am greatful to Puja Music for the opportunity.”
