A hauntingly beautiful song composed by Vishal Bhardwaj set to Varun Grover’s poignant words. Arijit is ace here. हाँ नूर को ऐसे चखा, मीठा कुआं ये मन हुआ |. -Mihir

Love this song - lyrics/music/singing everythingg is great! One of the top songs of the year for me. Although it seems like Arijit is doing a Vishal! -Hemendra

Arijit sings all sound same to me. -Abhay

Lyrics are the high point of this song. -Aditya

When I first heard this song, I had a strong call back to Yeh Ishq Hai from Rangoon and I put this song aside without giving its due. On repeat listens that happened many months after the film released I came to love this song. Varun's lyrics are top notch and is so is Arijit's singing but the main stays are the whistles and the guitars. -Krithikaa

Lyrics better. Lazy effort by Vishal Bharadwaj in vocals. -Ashok

Nice melody, inventive lyrics and Arijit's familiar singing style (though he's not in his plaintive mood, thankfully). -Subrat

Lovely thoughtful words penned By Varun, the song and the whistling in the arrangement brought me memories of Ennio Morricone scoring for Sergio Leone Western films. -Sunil

Like the playfulness of the composition, the whistles, the female chorus in the interlude. -Sankhayan

Arijit's problem is that he tends to sing most of his songs in a lazy voice even if it does not suit the tune or lyrics. Here however he does a stellar job as does Vishal Bharadwaj, keeping him on a tight leash and keeping the orchestration minimal plus throwing in a nice whistling piece throughout the song, that makes the tune very hummable. -Ketan

Another song with minimalist backgrounds, but good chord work and great vocals. -DM

The typical Bhardwaj melody, which gives a bittersweet feel after listening. Arijit is well-suited to the Bhardwaj universe by now. -Rujul

Vishal & Varun - a promising jodi for the coming times.. Vishal goes back to that whistling mode while Varun writes about the theme of the film - Redemption - माटी का ये मैला घड़ा/ फूटा तो फिर कंचन हुआ. -Pavan
