Atif exclaims, “Pushing my limits was certainly an experience because I was shooting this video while on a US tour, which is not easy at all.

Nushrat recalls a “chilling” but funny experience while shooting the video and says, “We were shooting in the freezing LA weather at 2.30 am, and after the rain sequence of the song was shot, we wanted to enter the house where we were shooting but the owner of the house refused to let Atif and me in. He expected us to dry ourselves outside and then enter his palatial mansion laid with Italian marble. Perhaps he did not want to ruin his house but Atif and I were completely drenched and freezing outside. Luckily, we were able to convince him (laughs).”
