In a conversation with ANI, he talked about the song and said, "I have started a series, and this is the first song. I have chosen the entertainment segment first of all, and later, there will be other variations. It is a completely entertainment song. I was in Mexico when I was in America for a world tour, and it was great to see a Mexican group, all of them of Indian origin... they were dancing to a Punjabi song, and it was very surprising. Then I adopted and implemented that concept in this 'Nagini' song."
On the title of the track, he added, "I named it because of the poetry, composition and picturisation.."
"Every two months, you will see a new track on different subjects from this series only.."
