Certain melodies and music concepts just have a shine to them, a definitive quality that makes them much greater than the sum of their parts and a lasting greatness. This is one of them. While this track so closely resembles Amit Trivedi's "Manmarziyaan" from the Lootera album in both melody and arrangement, it manages to find a unique beat at every step in its execution to stand out as its own unique track, in its own unique and fabulous element. The strings and the overall atmosphere are magical, so is Ronkini Gupta's poised singing. -Shasank

Ronkini is mellifluous. This song isn't one that you can remember or hum repeatedly but it is a fantastic listen nonetheless. -Akanksha

Lovely music and mellow instrumentation. The voice is a bit unusual but works for this song and the low key arrangement. -Ketan

So eerily reminiscent of Manmarziyan from Lootera, only with a more classical base. -Harsh

Above average in all aspects, but nothing special. -Guri

Hadn't heard this before. Quite good. -Subrat

I think songs like these have it easy: they base themselves on a pleasing raag, and do nothing of its own. Heck, even the harmonies are so 'Manmarziyan' (Lootera). Pleasant enough, but hardly anything original or distinct about it. -Zico

Ronkini has a good voice- the words were hard to discern at times. -Sunil

Classical-flavoured melodies are always a joy to listen to, especially when they are so well rendered like with Ronkini Gupta here. The choice of raga (bhimpalasi from the sound of it), the meter, the use of chorus etc all indicate a nod to Amit Trivedi's Manmarziyaan - a very well-realised track all the same. -Vipin

Contemporary Indian melody, compelling and complex enough without being complicated. -Armeen

Ronkini Gupta and Rishabh take us to a 7/8 rhythm melody with the chorus doing countermelody exactly like manmariyan from lootera. -Pradeep
