I also incorporated the theme of the film which is a guitar line that suggests mystery and machismo in equal measure. It's the opening credit song which is crucial in setting up the mood and the tone for the entire film." 

Talking about Amitabh Bachchan, Clinton shared his experience "Couldn't have asked for more as a composer than to have the quintessential hero Mr Bachchan himself rendering the vocals on this track. In fact, he's delivered it with so much consummate ease that he totally owns the song.

I have worked with two extremely edgy writers -  Lyricist Siddhant Kaushal and Rapper Jizzy to create this build to a frenzied ending that the song has. Amit Mishra too joins in on the higher octave in the chorus. The track completely encapsulates the essence of an edge-of-your-seat thriller. There are times when all the elements of a song feel just right. This is definitely one of those times."
