Underwhelming. Fairly well-produced. -Anish

It is a break from the other songs in this category. -Subrat

I loved the attentive deliberation of the singing, and of the music itself. And the lyrics are lovely in their gentle observational detail. -Trisha

Expected from maati baani. :) The sarod is too beautiful!! The traditional lyrics with Nirali's voice sound particularly pleasant. -Akanksha

The coming together of artistes from diverse backgrounds (a factor that doesn't affect the quality of the music itself, but enhances the "X Factor") was great. Music is such a great uniter! By the way, the lyric mentions "raag Yaman", and the tune is in raag Shahana. Why bother mentioning a raag in the words, if you're not going to put it in the tune? Weird. -UVR

Maati-Baani present this composition so well that the voices stay after you long after the song ends. -Krithikaa

Beautifully produced song with some lovely Sarod portions. Nice to have raag based compositions. -Mihir

Plus a point for the Sarood, minus 1 for the singing. -Shalini

The vocals on this one could have been much, much better. The most interesting part was probably the sarod in the background. Nothing else really stood out as innovative or instantly likeable. Good for a lazy listen, I guess. -Rujul

Oversmart. -Armeen

A beautiful composition. Impact of classical music. -Amborish

Sarod was the highlight of this song. -Vaishali

Spellbinding sarod and wonderful rendition. I wish the cello played a more prominent role. -Vishal

Nirali Kartik is so good in the song - both as a singer and as a composer and the sarod section is flawless. -Aman

Wonderful sarod. -Aditya
