Says Malani: “The song Mog Tuzo Kithlo Ashelom, has been my all time favorite song since my childhood and Wilfy uncle has been my favorite singer and a inspiration for my upbringing in the field of arts, music and dance. When I planned the title track of Maa, It just flashed to me that I should use the song and so, firstly I went to uncle’s grave and prayed for his departed soul and asked his permission through my prayers. And then, I approached Meena aunty (Meena Rebimbus) and Vishwas, who happily gave me the permission to use the track. That itself was a miracle. Next, I approached the wonderful talented singers Prajoth and Ashwin, who came together and created magic with their voice. We retained the feel of the song, and had English and Hindi lyrics to it. As the original track was a romantic song, we changed a word from it, and made it a soulful emotional song between mother and son”
