Reception
editOn reviewing the first single "Kesariya", a critic from Pinkvilla called the song "pure auditory bliss with Arijit's velvet voice".[22] On reviewing the second single "Deva Deva", another critic from Pinkvilla wrote that "The song begins with Shiva's journey as he unlocks his powers and channels his connection to the world of astras. The song also shows a glimpse of Amitabh Bachchan, who seems to be helping Ranbir connect with his light."[23]
