Laced with a beautiful melody, the song captures the emotion of being left behind in Love. Composed by Arjun and written by Kunaal Vermaa, the song addresses rejection and pain but most importantly, the undying nature and burden of true love.

Commenting on her debut single, Momina Mustehsan added, I`m grateful to Arjun for sharing such an awesome song of his with me. He, along with the Universal team, instantly became friends more than colleagues. This is my first single, and the encouragement and support I got from the whole team was overwhelming. This was also my first time playing a character for a video and Danny was an incredible director to work with. It was truly a pleasure being a part of this project alongside such a motivated, supportive and hardworking team.
