[9] Johar stated that Bhattacharya is a strong talent in music and his words tend to have a 'colloquial nature', but they also have a 'tremendous amount of soul'.

The video of the song shows how the bond between their respective characters, Punjabi Krish Malhotra and Tamilian Ananya Swaminathan strengthens.

It has been filmed at locations in Tamil Nadu including Adikesava Perumal temple at Mylapore and a pier at Ennore beach.

Bollywood Hungama's Rajiv Vijayakar credited, 'imagery-laden' lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya, the 'haunting rhythmic guitar riff' and the 'placidity of the composition' along with Arijit Singh's vocals, for making the song, the finest number from the soundtrack.

[19] Sankhayan Ghosh from The Indian Express found the chorus of the song 'wonderful' though criticized for having an 'uncanny resemblance with Ishq Sufiyana' from The Dirty Picture (2011).
