Nia shared how she bagged this song, "When the makers came to me with an original song and not any remake and told me that they could have only imagined me and not anyone else for this I was very honoured. They really rested their faith in me.”

“I have grown up watching Chaiyya Chaiyya. Katrina Kaif killing every song she does be it Sheila Ki Jawaani, Kamli, it's like she has the fire in her and if I got something similar why wouldn't I do that. I love going solo, these songs, I love all the lights and camera on me. I really gave my blood and sweat and I am glad seeing that it went well.", she added.

She further said how Malaika helped her in acing this item number, " I did a lot of homework by watching Malaika Arora's Munni Badnam, Bipasha Basu's Beedi Jalai le, and when I saw them doing this onscreen I wondered will I ever be able to do this, will I be able to do this, you keep seeing Malaika Arora and look what she does, which is quite magic."
