Hariharan, Runa, Flutes and Harmonium form a lovely quartet in this song about aspirations, desires and dream. Shivamani composes a lovely Antara where the halka harmonium and the flute soar into the sky even as Runa and Hariharan keep the proceedings grounded. The second interlude with the solo flute is the sone pe suhaga,. -Krithikaa

Lyrics feel forced into the beat. -Armeen

I liked the constant accompaniment by harmonium (played by Pradeep Pandit). What a delight to hear Hariharan after a long time! -Vishal

Reminscences of childhood, inspiring. -Subrat

Lovely classical-based melody that finds the perfect treatment at the hands of two exceptional singers - Hariharan and Runa Sivamani - and Sivamani with a very fitting arrangement to back them up. -Vipin

Heard this for the first time in RMIM nominations. Nothing remarkable. -Akanksha

A charming and skillfully arranged song with the use of various instruments. Reminiscent of ARR-Chitra songs from the ‘90s. The singing is first-rate. Would love to hear more songs from Sivamani’s new avatar as a composer. -Mihir

Among the more elaborately arranged, ambitious songs of the year. And sweetly sung. -Trisha

Tender, sweet song created by Sivamani. Heard Hariharan in Hindi films after a long time. -Vaishali

Amazing Indian classical arrangements make this song with its compelling three-beat rhythm sound even more addictive. Runa Shivamani and Hariharan make for a great combo. The lyrics too, by Raqueeb Alam, showcase the excitement in the song beautifully. -Rujul

The music was great. Ruma uses her voice so well. Poor pronunciation strikes again, this time from Hariharan, a veteran who should know better than to say "GHumaan", "Khaaishon". Runa struggles with the aspirated consonants. -UVR

So lyrical, rhythmic and refreshing! -Svetlana

A masterful composition and a very distinctive sound, like some of Rahman's earlier work. -Amborish

Simple and pleasant tune. Minimal but impactful backgrouhds. -Anish

This has been a find for me. Good percussion. The composition has a very South feel to it. Liked it a lot. -Aditya
