Critical reception edit
Vipin Nair of The Hindu wrote "matching the song’s craziness and energy perfectly, even as Ajay-Atul concocts a heady mix of percussion-heavy folk music and electronic elements in the backdrop. The accelerated electronic coda with the chipmunk-ish voice is an overkill though."[5] Manish Gaekwad of Scroll.in called it "alarming and addictive" and observed it sounds like one half of Ajay-Atul turned up the volume while the Gogavale brother ensured that the unhinged energy has a rhythm on which to rely.[6]
In popular culture edit
- Sandeep Reddy Vanga used the song as a background score in the film Animal.[2]
