She says,” We sing for our satisfaction. We know each other since a decade now and that's how the idea of recreating something like ‘Pari Hoon Main’ was born. We did not promote the song except on our social networking sites and still it received more than 50,000 views on YouTube. I guess this is a great achievement. That's where the idea of forming a band germinated."
