This is sound advice for the current state and the conditions that we're living under. The song gives expression to the pain of the people and how it can be eased. I am positive that we will tide through these difficult times and I am happy to have offered my voice -- (audio and visual) to such a perceptive and creative initiative.”

Sonakshi Sinha says, “Kudos to all the artists for executing the initiative of inspiring people to be resourceful and kind to each other. We are tackling big problems right now - economic slowdown, internal conflicts and tension at our borders.
