A conventional melody that is interesting in several places, I was slightly disappointed by this mainstream track, specially coming from Shankar Ehsaan Loy. The structure is lazy and wants to just jump to the main chorus, which feels out of sync with the rest of the inspired melody, as if it was tacked on in a rush to get it out of the studio for the film's promotions. SEL still find some creativity though, in the song's intro, outro, and the percussions. Shreya Ghoshal and Arijit Singh are spot on as always, but also feel like the composers took the easy way out ~ coz somewhat unique voices could have elevated this song's appeal further. Varun Grover's lyrics are fine, but it also feels like he wasn't given much to work with. -Shasank
Beautiful arrangement from SEL. Miss the days when we got a feed of 3-4 EP albums from this trio with their refreshing arrangements, released in their entirety and not one song at a time. -Sunil
Somewhat better than ok. Why not have Shankar sing it, I wonder. -Ashok
Beautiful lyrics, “Retein bhi hai makhmalli si.”. -Pankaj
Pretty music, nice vocals, saccharin-sweet, "been there, done that". -Sanjeev
Why is Shreya singing for a 2 year old? I never thought I would find a song where Arijit is the better singer. -Ketan
IMHO, the singers and words deserved a better tune. -Meera
Shankar+Ehsaan+Loy have rarely sounded so template-y. -Tatsam
