Taking to his Instagram page to post pictures from the sets of the song as well as a Behind The Scenes clip of the song, the actor said, "Didn’t know where to begin… First time dancing on such a massive setup made specially for this song and it brought back so many memories. A short rollercoaster ride… but one hell of a powerful one!"

Thanking his director Rahul Ravindran and his producers, Dheekshith Shetty said, "Big thanks to my director @rahulr_23 sir for always thinking out of the box, trusting us, and creating this experience. To my producers @vidyakoppineedi ma’am @dheerajmogilineni sir @geethaarts for backing us all the way, forever grateful."

He then went on to say, "Contemporary was always a tough nut to crack for me… but @vishwakiran_nambi sir and team @shrijanirao @thejas_gowda_19 you made it feel like a dream. Thank you for pushing us beyond our limits."

Thanking his co-star Rashmika next, he said, "And to my incredible co-star, @rashmika_mandanna thanks for trusting me with your life… literally, hanging in the air with no floor under you! Not easy, but you did it with such grace. You’re a STAR for a reason and an absolute inspiration!"

The actor also thanked their physio Gayathri Shetty for fixing their "broken bodies during this intense shoot".

He ended the note saying, "Nadhive has already crossed 10M+ views! You guys truly made it your own. Grateful for all the love you’ve showered on us."

The song was mind-blowing! But I wish they'd focus more on the dance choreography than just the aerial stunts. Our Indian dance forms have so much to offer beyond Western contemporary styles.

Rashmika is the queen of expressions! Even in those difficult aerial shots, her face was so expressive. Dheekshith has improved so much since his debut - proud of our Kannada industry talent making waves in Telugu cinema too!

As someone who trained in contemporary dance, I can appreciate how difficult those lifts must have been! The trust between partners is everything. Beautiful to see such mutual respect in the industry.

The BTS footage shows how much hard work goes into these song sequences. Respect to the entire team! But I hope the movie has good content too, not just great songs. Recent films have been style over substance.

Rashmika is setting new benchmarks for female actors! Not many heroines would attempt such risky stunts. More power to her 👏 The song is already my morning alarm tone!
