Speaking about it she said, “This song challenged me to learn a new art form- Bharatnatyam. Jaya maa was a trained dancer and playing her, I had to look believable in my craft on screen. Taking up new challenges makes me stronger, so I took up the task to learn this traditional dance form.” She also mentioned that she had put in several hours to perfect the dance. She said, “With innumerable hours of rehearsals, practice and finally the shoot, we have offered our sweat and blood with Nain Bandhe Naino Se and I'm thrilled to present the song to the world.”

Thalaivii is set to release on September 10 but is having a hard time finding outlets for its theatrical shows. Kangana Ranaut was most recently in the news after she spoke about the ongoing multiplex controversy. The actor mentioned that makers of the upcoming film turned down offers from OTT platforms to support theatres, as they faced a loss during the pandemic. However, theatres did not return the favour. The actor called out multiplex conglomerate owners for forming groups.
