Slogan song as a song of Protest and Dub-Divine does well in bringing many issues right from Class Conflict, Filthy lanes of Politics, Environment, Oppression and blends it quite well with the Aazaadi slogan… Highly Effective. -Pavan

I'm not the intended audience for any kind of hip hop song from anywhere in the world. But I kept an open mind and an open ear to the whole Gully Boy album. I don't mind the genre at all. The lyrics are subversive in an everyday way and without trying too hard. The singing (if it could be called that) is quite in sync with the rhythm and doesn't jar. -Subrat

Song that talks about freedom from prevailing issues and social injustice in the society. Dub Sharma has produced a stellar track which is also one of the theme songs of the film. Powerful. -Mihir

Musically this is generic rap, the dubstep growls are a cool touch. -DM

Comes incredibly close to Apna time aayega in my ratings! The way that Aazadi slogans have been included is ace! Pustak mein ye likh te galat,Seekhte galat,Chinkte halak,Par kisi ko parwah nahi- Sums up this generation. Respect for these rappers - Bahut hard bhai bahut hard! -Akanksha

कॉलेज की गलियों से निकला नारा अपनी पहुँच को विस्तार दे रहा है। ये गाना मौजूदा हालात की आवाज़ है।. -अंकित

As a call to Azadi, the lyrics really don't make me wanna get off my sofa and join morchas. Could do better. -Ketan

A hard-hitting rap on the current sociopolitical situation. Impresssive rap by Dub Sharma and DIVINE. -Rujul

I am positive to the "music experiment" of the soundtrack -- the nominated songs and many others, but have difficulty rating the songs in the frame I use for all the other songs. -Ashok

Major brownie points for sampling from kanhaiya's chants to lead into an accurate picture of social and economic inequaliity . At the same time, there is a bitter after taste from how this song was used in the movie. -Krithikaa

Seemed like a forced addition to the film. -Aditya

Really tight. Top notch production. -Sankhayan

I am going to rank the entire album based on how fitting the score was to the movie's plot and how it was an integral part of the narrative. -Hemendra
