The guide translates the title as the moon or the light of my soul, a phrase of deep affection and spiritual connection. This is track three of nine on an October 2016 album and lasts 4:49. Pritam and Arijit Singh are tagged bollywood and hindi pop, so mainstream Hindi film-pop is the sensible expectation. The melancholic mood tag suits a rainy night, a long drive or a moment of missing someone. Skip it if you want a brisk, cheerful pick or something under four minutes.
