Meanwhile, Ayushmann Khurrana has described this auspicious festival as very special for his life and career and has shared a very emotional and heart-touching anecdote related to the sets of the film.

Featuring the melodious voices of Shreya Ghoshal and Keshav Anand, music by Himesh Reshammiya and soulful lyrics by Manoj Muntashir Shukla, this song has not only left the audience emotional but has also left a deep impression on the hearts of the actors during the shooting.
During a special conversation, Ayushmann Khurrana, while expressing his deep love, faith and respect for the festival of Chhath, said that due to his belonging to a Punjabi family of Chandigarh, he had never got the opportunity to celebrate Chhath Puja directly before. However, through this film of Sooraj Barjatya, he got the privilege of living and experiencing this great cultural and religious tradition very closely for the first time.
Sharing his experience, the actor said, “I had never celebrated Chhath Puja before in my life, but now the experience of this festival has become very special and memorable for me. I really liked the depth, emotions associated with this festival and its spiritual significance. The biggest beauty of this festival is that it brings together all the people of the family and society with utmost intimacy.”
Praising the traditions of Chhath Mahaparva, which is the center of unwavering faith of crores of devotees across the country and the world including Bihar, Jharkhand and Eastern Uttar Pradesh, Ayushmann Khurrana said that the faith and devotion of this fast and worship is very deep. He further said that every ritual has its own special meaning, and for me it was not just shooting a film song, but I got the opportunity to be a part of such a rich and sacred tradition, which was completely new to me.
Revealing that unforgettable moment of the shooting, Ayushmann told that just before the shooting of the climax sequence of Chhath Puja in the film started, director Sooraj Barjatya gathered all the cast and crew members present on the set at one place and played this song of Chhath Puja in front of everyone. Sooraj Barjatya was very sensitive to the fact that the traditions, customs and folk sentiments of Chhath Puja should be portrayed on screen with complete authenticity and respect.
Recalling that very emotional moment, Ayushmann Khurrana said that when everyone was standing together on the set and this devotional song of Chhathi Maiya was echoing all around, the entire atmosphere was filled with devotion and sympathy. The actor said, “That one moment left everyone on the set emotional and everyone standing there had tears in their eyes. That magical and sacred moment is forever etched in our memories, which made the entire sequence even more meaningful.”
