“Rahman’s humbleness, his brilliance and the ability to bring out the best in a person sets him apart from others. It is difficult to match his thought process and creativity. He understands music like nobody else,” Ila told PTI.
“His involvement at every stage of the album was crucial as it added value in creating a masterpiece. He would listen to each song and we would together make multiple iterations. In fact, the Eid song in the album is his composition completely,” she said.
The album is conceptualised and sung by Ila, musically arranged by Ranjit Barot and produced by A. R. Rahman.

The nine tracks highlight the Indian festivals like Pongal, Holi, Baisakhi, Eid, Janmashtami, Ganesh Chaturthi, Durga Puja, Diwali and Christmas.
