Joi Barua wanted the song "O meri laila" to be carried forward with heroism which was innocent, and its singer Atif Aslam delivered that perfectly, says the composer. "I think it was very easy working with him (Atif). He had been travelling for a while, but once he got down to it, it just came together so beautifully. Even though this was a title track, I wanted this to be carried forward with heroism which was innocent.

"Because the context of love here is timeless, beyond life or death...beyond feelings of sadness, cynicism or even mere contentment. Just to celebrate the fact that love existed, that it could all be love. To celebrate the fact that one could be completely immersed in it. That feeling. That is what Atif delivered perfectly," Barua told IANS in an email interview.
