Reacting to the students-version of the track, GV Prakash Kumar said at the event, “I am delighted to see the recreated version of the song. It was extremely good and well-executed. This rendition was a different take on the song, like an electric version, very beautiful and looked very professional. I loved the guitar on the song. I can relate to it as I had programmed this song myself.”
With this title track, G.V. Prakash Kumar continues his successful association with the Amazon Original. The multi-talented artist had previously created the title song for Putham Pudhu Kaalai and now sung and composed the theme title track for Putham Pudhu Kaalai Vidiyaadhaa, second edition of the successful Tamil anthology.
