What stands out from the very first moment is Javed's incredible baritone, his voice is clear, crisp and rock-solid coupled with well-written lyrics and cutting verses. ‘Yelelo Yelelo’ is an apt example of how simplicity and authenticity can capture somebody's soul. The video of the song features a beautiful swan-designed boat with a picturesque blue river stream and lovely aura of the blue sky.
Talking about the track, Javed Ali said, "’Yelelo Yelelo’ is a musical and lyrical masterpiece, rarely do we come across such a song which reminds us of the rich Indian musical heritage. It was amazing working with Manisharma. Prashant Ingole's lyrics propel you to dive deep into the world of thoughts. Both together weave an imagination which is never heard before".
