Pick of the year for me. The sinewy composition, searing lyrics and stirring singing all work together to powerful effect. -Shalini Razdan

कल्‍पना पटवारी ने गाने के दर्द को खूब उभारा है। कौसर के बोल बहुत मार्मिक लगे। अनु मलिक ने अपनी वो झलक दिखायी जो वो कभी कभी दिखाते हैं।. -Yunus

O re kaharo‘s generic quasi-Middle Eastern sound is painfully outdated. -Karthik

Needed a better singer to do justice to the lyrics. It was like listening to a non-Hindi speaker singing. The song should have ended a minute earlier. The male antara was not needed. -Arun Simha

Nice weight and texture in the voices, pitch a little sloppy...is the output with or without Auto-Tune (does anyone *not* Auto-Tune these days)? Some nice instrumental work. -Sanjeev

Melancholic! Her voice has a vazan and feel that stays with you long after the song is over. -Megha

I missed some melody or any sweetness in the song. -Meera

Unusual melody with such a strong voice of Kalpana Patowary. -Vaishali

An uncharacteristic Anu Malik song. Interesting arrangement and lyrics. -Param

Total khichdi. -Nishant
