In an interview with Connect Cine, Aditi Rao Hydrai said, "I am thanking everybody. That walk, just that little tukda from thumri, it is all over the internet. I really didn’t expect that and Sanjay sir did say, ‘Ye chal bahut important hai (This walk is very important).’ He has so much knowledge so he was very much involved in the making of the song."

She further spoke about Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s careful attention to detail, mentioning his concern for even the smallest aspects, like how the dupatta moved with each step.

She explained that although Kruti Mahesh handled the choreography, Bhansali was deeply involved in every aspect. Hydari noted his specific instructions regarding the walk, the positioning of the dupatta, the waist movement, and the timing of sound effects. She found his dedication remarkable.
