Sunidhi is known as a hit machine in Bollywood and is really choosy about the songs she sings. When she heard the concept behind 'Udd Jaa' she readily agreed to do playback for it as it touches the sensitive issue of barter system of women and women empowerment, it's her way of contributing towards the social awareness of such issues which are still faced by women in our country.
Commenting on the same, "One of the reason behind recording this song is that it deals with the very sensitive issue of barter of women and also with this song it's my small contribution to bring change in such issues. This song is really close to my heart and now-a-days Sufi songs are made rarely so I really enjoyed singing for it. When I was briefed about this film, I felt that the story is close to my spirit, apart from just telling a story to entertain you it leaves you with an inspired feeling, so for this particular song I readily accepted it as the song had a social relevance."
'Udd Jaa' is a sufi song which focuses on the progressive thought of women empowerment, the song is composed by Ravi Sheen and lyrics are penned by Munna Dhiman.
