Actor Anjan Srivastav shared the video on social media and captioned it, "This beautiful gesture by @sonunigamofficial made Satish's memorial so special. Truly, this was a highlight of his life. But this moment will stay in my heart forever. Singing to Madhu Bhabhi - Satish's most favourite song. Also, reminding us that music binds and can heal, and do so much. And likewise, remembering what a masterful melody maker Satish himself was."
Actor-producer JD Majethia also shared the video and wrote, "Celebrating the life of #satishshah was intended to give him the befitting tribute from family and friends. His favourite songs, chosen over the usual bhajans in keeping with his preference, were sung. This song was also to convey what Madhu bhabi's last words in the song are - WATCH IT TILL THE END - to know what we all wish to promise #satish shah. Hum sang hai."

Someone else said, "She is so beautiful. May Satish sir's soul rest in immense peace."
Another person commented, "So good to see the way we celebrate life... even after death, it's the same way. What a life Satish ji must have lived."
