Singer Akriti Kakkar, who has been a big fan of Harbhajan Mann albums since childhood says, “He brings back a lot of nostalgia for me and I constantly had that smile on my face while performing with him. I am very happy that I got this chance to collaborate with the real singer of the song Gallan Goriyan. Like I mentioned earlier, I have been his fan since teenage and makes it really special to perform with him on MixTape Punjabi. It is like old wine in new bottle.”
Singer Harbhajan Mann who has originally sung Gallan Goriyan says always looking to work with younger generation singers and try new things. Commenting on this, he further adds, “Once I was joking with Akriti Kakkar that it feels she is not singing the song with me but for me. I'm glad T-Series didn't pair me with a male singer and instead chose Akriti Kakkar, which I feel has truly brought out the beauty of the song. Abhijit Vaghani has done a brilliant job of mixing these two songs so seamlessly.”
