“I am feeling ecstatic and overwhelmed. I had expectations from this song because I experimented with my acting. I wanted to see if people would accept me in this new role or not,” Himansh Kohli tells IANS of the video that has 135,252,753 views and counting, with over two million likes.
This is Himansh‘s second hit music video in recent times. In February, he featured in “Jis din bhula doon tera pyar” another Jubin recreation that the singer recorded sang with Tulsi Kumar. The song crossed 150 million on YouTube.
Himansh Kohli feels lockdown has been a blessing for music videos. “During lockdown people were free and the demand for content was at its peak. People had no other viable means of entertainment than watching something on their phones, TV or laptops. This demand increased due to social media networking apps creating short video features like Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, etc. Hence, this sudden fascination for music videos,” he reasons.
