It's ruling the domestic charts and breaking new charts globally every. I think it's a great moment for the Indian Music Scene for a non-film Single to break on to the Billboard Global Charts. I am waiting to see how far ahead this goes and pray that Paani Paani becomes one of the first few statements of Indian domination of the World Music Scene.'

Having collaborated with Badshah on many blockbusters earlier, Astha shared "Both Badshah bhai and I have been extremely humbled by the love Paani Paani is receiving from all over. We got a chance to perform the song Live for the very first time in front of a group of people recently, and the response was unbelievable. They knew the words, they knew the steps, they hummed the music drop, all of it. I dream of the day Indian Songs will top Global charts, Paani Paani seems to be on a strong performance track and I can't wait for it to hit the highest position it can."
