Perfect story-telling. -Meera

Sukhwinder's energy is as always infectious, but I'm feeling a "Bhaag Milkha Bhaag" hangover ("Ghul Mil Ghul Mil Launda" from "Slow Motion Angreza"); also very much reminds me of the "Omkara" title song -Sanjeev

I find it hard to figure out what the genre/mood is. The music, singing and lyrics all are at a dissonance -Ketan

Great song. Great energy. Sukhvinder's diction still bugs me! -Hemendra

Each note, each beat, each word of the song spits out vengeance as expected. Brilliant song. -Mihir M

बेहतरीन गीत। ठेठ विशाल शैली। सुखविंदर गाने को बिलकुल नया आयाम देते हैं। क्रिकेट की एक बेहतरीन पारी की तरह। -यूनुस

Sukhwinder rules -Bharathi

Sukhvinder lifts an otherwise average composition -Parul

This song summarizes Kashmir situation better than what Vishal managed with the movie itself which was a half baked adaptation! -Arun

The use of the rubab is beautiful and gives the perfect "Kashmiri" feel to the song. The lyrics are poetic and nicely brought to life with Sukhwinder's singing, along with the heavily accentuated chorus and music. -Sowmya

Gulzar and Vishal at their best, transposing Hamlet into a kashmiri context; a beautiful transposition of the hamlet's play-within-a-play in an indian context. Subhash Ghai's Karz had a similar situation and song. -Sunil

Some good lyrics wasted. -Zafar

विहंगम, तेज़-तर्रार, जटिल, रहस्यमय, मारक। 'हमारे सिनेमा में संगीत क्यों होना चाहिए?' अागे जब भी कोई यह सवाल पूछे, तो जवाब में उसे यही गीत सुनाया जाना चाहिए। जब 'जेहलम.. जेहलम..' शब्दों के साथ गीत अपने चरम उठान की अोर जाता है अौर 'लाल, लाल..' की अावाज़ें गूँजती हैं, सच में रौंगटे खड़े हो जाते हैं। -मिहिर पं.
