The tune draws inspiration from the sounds of nature and our everyday lives. Rahman has woven in lyrical sounds of the sea, a bird's call, the chant of fishermen and more.

At the launch, he said, "I wanted to bring alive the true sounds of India as a showcase of the depth of musical traditions in the country."
