A few days ago, Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Gujarati singer Aditya Gadhvi for the song. PM Modi retweeted a post where the singer spoke about his first meeting with him.

This video brings back memories from a special interaction".
In the clip, Mr Gadhvi recalled the time when PM Modi was Gujarat's Chief Minister and he attended his concert and expressed his admiration for him. In the video, Mr Gadhvi said that when he was around 18-19 years old, one day PM Modi (then Gujarat CM) attended one of his concerts. After the show, the singer said that PM Modi recognised him instantly, saying that he has achieved huge popularity in Gujarat. Narendra Modi also asked Mr Gadhvi whether he has completed his studies in his characteristic style.
Meanwhile, since being released, the song has accumulated more than 5 crore views on YouTube. Several social media users have shared their singing and dancing performances on the song. "Khalasi tells the tale of the limitless sailor who has set out to explore through the shores of Gujarat. The song speaks of his tenuous, adventurous voyage, his delightful experiences and his enthusiasm with wachich he takes on life while he is sailing away!" the song's description reads.
