According to a production insider, the track is “a rousing military anthem with a deep emotional core.”   

Lakhia is said to have designed the sequence more as a narrative centrepiece than a traditional song. The insider shared, “It’s not a celebratory number. The mood is patriotic and the song reflects the pride, sacrifice, and pain of the soldiers. Salman and the director were clear that it should feel organic to the story.”
