So heartwarming to see talent from Kashmir getting mainstream opportunities! Music truly has no boundaries. Wishing Faheem and Arslan all the success - their journey from Kashmir to YRF is inspiring. Mohit Suri always delivers magical songs, can't wait to hear this one!

Mohit Suri's music never disappoints! But honestly, I'm more excited about discovering these new Kashmiri artists than another Ananya Panday cousin debut 🙈 No offense to Ahaan, but fresh musical talent is what Bollywood needs more of!

Kashmir has such rich musical heritage - from Sufi to folk. Glad YRF is tapping into this talent pool. Hope this opens doors for more regional artists across India to get mainstream recognition. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

Listened to the title track - the Kashmiri influence in the music is subtle but beautiful! Though I wish they had used more traditional instruments like santoor to really showcase their roots. Still, a great start for these talented boys!

As someone from Jammu, this makes me so proud! For too long, only negative stories come out about our region. Finally some positive representation through art and music. Inshallah, more collaborations like this will happen 🤞

The song is melodious but honestly sounds like every other Mohit Suri romantic track. The real story here is the breakthrough by Faheem and Arslan. Hope Bollywood gives them more opportunities beyond just being "Kashmiri artists" - they're talented musicians first!
