Neither have I been a religious person nor someone who sang a lot of bhajans as a singer. So it was very special getting to actually ‘sing’ a song to express gratitude for this gift of life,” he explains.
Talking about what he loves in this prayer song, Babul says, “The simplicity of it. The lyrics, the music, the video are all emanate divinity but without being extravagant in any aspect.
