All in all, this makes the album very heavy, very sad overall but where it shines, it shines like a thousand suns."

Madhuri also revealed that the song comes at an emotional moment in the film. She was quoted as saying, "... it comes at a very emotional point in the movie. It's a slow song. It's an emotional song. The whole story and the characters come together in the song." The fifth song of the film "Aira Gaira" was released on 13 April 2019.
