Further going into the conversation, the London-based Punjabi singer Amar Arshi finally broke silence on the same and reacted on the song receiving so much global acclaimation. He said, “I don’t think most of these people making dance videos to this song know that I sang it. For all the raula (buzz) this song has generated in recent weeks, I haven’t made any monetary gains from it. I can’t understand contracts written in English. I knew little about royalty as a concept back then. Further, I didn’t think the song will become this big.”

Amar Arshi had started his career in 1991 with Kala Chashma but back then, he didn’t know about royalty, and as compensation he had only got a six figured number.
