"All sending affection from India. We always think of doing something to reciprocate this affection," he said. "That's when one of those followers sent a link to the song, Bijlee Bijlee by Harrdy Sandhu."
"The music and its harmony touched our hearts and its choreography made perfect sense to us. (We thought it was a) perfect opportunity to honor these people with a rich culture," he added.
