Javed saab continued revealing how he wrote the song first and Pritam composed it later. He said, “It is different because it has a different situation. Pritam has composed it well.

But here, Pritam was magnanimous enough to say that sir ye gaana aap pehle likhiye fir main tune banaoonga. Toh bahot acha usne performance kiya.”
