While singer Mohit Chauhan said that there was no point for the recreated version of "Masakali" to be named after the original as it doesn't even sound like the track he sang for "Delhi 6". Mohit opened up on the same and told, "I heard the song. But it doesn't sound like Masakali. So they could've called it something else. But to say it's Masakali and then ride on the name of the song to make something else... If you make a new Sholay and then add anything to it, it ruins the experience of the original."'
