A non-chest thumping patriotic track that fits well within the context of the film. -Aman

The team of Amit Trivedi & Kausar Munir deliver a glorious anthemic track for this patriotic film. There are Shehnai bits by Omkar Dhumal. Arijit Singh’s smooth rendition elevates the song. TV reality shows seem to have adopted this song for their bg score:). -Mihir

Arijit's rendition complements Amit's pleasant tune. Lyrics are quite ordinary. -Anish

Nice use of shehnai for a patriotic song. Reminded me of the patriotic classic 'Ye Jo Des' (Swades), although this song failed to impress. -Vishal

All the tropes of deshbhakti and inspiration are there/ Arijit is good, Kausar Munir's lyrics check the boxes and the shehnai works. -Subrat

I wanted to give the music a 4 just for that naadaswaram. I loved it when Amit used it in that Aiyaa song, and I love it here. -UVR

What was the need of adding those Punjabi words!! Good choice of Shehnai as the main instrument. -Aditya

जीती रहो, जीतती रहो' summarises the spirit of Gunjan's dad (and so many other progressive dads of girls). Amit Trivedi's music especially towards the end crescendo is uplifting and quite patriotic. -Akanksha

Something Rahman like happening and still a new refreshing sound. Very evocative! -Svetlana

Standard-issue Amit Trivedi template is the bane of this melody and the lovely Shenai phrases do not provide relief from the fatigue. -Krithikaa

I like some of the gentle wordplay “jeeti raho, jeet-ti raho”. Though it annoyed me that that the chorus is an afterthought: the song was clearly written as “Bhaarat ki naari”, not “beti” -- the rhymes are hamaari, nyaari, pyaari. But on the whole, not a bad song, given its message-y brief. -Trisha

Jeeti raho, jeet-ti raho, Kausar Munir. The wordplay lends such great musicality to it, and thank you Arijit for not eating words here. Amit Trivedi should stop using shennai though to manipulate us in emotional songs - it's predictable now. -Anup

A very typical Amit Trivedi melody, but some takeaways from the song is Arijit's great rendition, the rousing brass instruments, the wonderful shehnai and the wonderful kids' chorus. -Rujul
