Talking about the song, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra said, "It`s a great tradition in our movies with regards to Holi Songs like Rang Barse and Holi Ke Din Dil Khil Jate Hain, from Sholay. Just taking the chain forward with yet another beautiful Holi song in Mere Pyare Prime Minister with Gulzar Bhai`s original song ` Baja Baja Re` which is composed with Shankar Ehsaan and Loy.
