By October 2016, the official music video crossed over 46 Million views and the official film version crossed over 15 Million views on YouTube.[19] Due to popularity and high demand, the singer of the song, Shreya Ghoshal, performed this number in many of her concerts, in and outside India.[20] The music composition by Sanjay Leela Bhansali was also highly applauded.

Jha praised Ghoshal's singing by saying, "The soundtrack of Bajirao Mastani has no Lata Mangeshkar. But it has lots of Shreya Ghoshal, Lata Ji's most melodious disciple. This girl can bend the most evocative lyrics into seductive shapes and leave us wondering if she is trying to tell us something beyond the words.".[22] Critic R.M. Vijaykar, reviewing for India-West, praised the composition and "electrifying" vocals of Ghoshal by saying, "The heroine of the score is Shreya Ghoshal, Bhansali's own magic find." and described Bhansali's work as creditable.[23] Critic Surabhi Redkar, reviewing for Koimoi praised the touch given by Maharashtrian and Qawwali lyrics saying, "The song is not just a treat to watch, but to hear it too!".[24]
