Speaking on the tribute, Saini Surinder states;
“Surjit Bindrakhia is my idol. Growing up, he was the one singer that I looked up to. I studied at the same college in Punjab as Surjit Bindrakhia, so he was always my inspiration when I first began to sing & still is to this day.
This tribute for me is a very special song and I wanted to make sure it was done in a special way. I have tried to deliver my best vocal abilities to try and do justice to the great hit songs. But there is no one better than the original Surjit Bindrakhia – he will always be No.1”.
I want to thank E3UK & Hi-Tech Music for making this project possible – and also Gupsy Aujla & the whole team behind the music for another great production!!”
