He simply stated: “Abhi single hoon main, relax.”

The kind of music, performances and the fact that we can pay a tribute to somebody who is still doing such an amazing job, congratulations Malaika. You know how much I love all these songs. Bahut acha laga to be able to see you being celebrated like this.”
