The conversation between the two musicians shows the value of paying respect to one another and exchanging cultures within the Punjabi music industry. It also shows how Manzoor's music has continued to influence audiences and artists in the years since his release. The fact that this isn't even an isolated incident makes it much more charming. Actor Vidya Balan was spotted dancing to Manzoor's great music last year.
In February 2023, Balan released a video in which she could be seen dancing to the same tune. A man asked Balan the reason behind her reduced electricity bill at the beginning of the one-minute video. The diva responded to him by starting a hilarious dance routine that showcased her moves to the tune. Manzoor expressed gratitude to the actress for utilizing her music in a remark on her video. I'm grateful. I adore you as well, my dear! I feel so humbled to see you dance to a song I sang twenty years ago," she said.
