This song makes me very proud, not just because for what it means in my career but for what we are building between his country and mine, ” he wrote.

When Diljit started singing in the microphone in front of me, I was in shock!! WOW! Best experience ever!!! Hope to see u soon in India Thanks @cocacola for helping make this collaboration happen.”
