One person commented, "The placement of this song in the movie (with crying emojis)."

Someone else said, "In My Opinion This Is The Best Tribute To Arijit Singh."
Another fan commented, "This song gave a perfect ending for Jaskeerat's character in my opinion. The soothing soulful voice of Arijit Singh made the scene more memorable."
