The controversy ignited from the narrative, predatory undertones and visuals of the music video. Randhawa plays a photography teacher in it. The scene that has faced fury is of the actress Anshika Pandey, who is seen arriving in school uniform and performing a dance sequence for Randhawa's character and the latter admiring her moves. The scene has been slammed for the problematic portrayal of a teacher-student relationship as many found it inappropriate.
