"Actually I was surprised to see the songs all over the internet; more so because I was still in the process of mastering. It's one thing for the songs to have made it to the internet and even worse when they are the unfinished versions. I am not sure what would the listeners be making of the songs that they are currently hearing", says a visibly upset Pritam.

Coming together with filmmaker Imtiaz Ali two years after Jab We Met has been a high pressure job for him as well. "Yeah, that's a baggage that we would always have to carry", he sighs, "Jab We Met has been a set benchmark for the listeners and comparisons are bound to happen."

He goes on share a joke that he has been sharing with Imtiaz ever since he started working on the soundtrack of ‘Love Aaj Kal’. "We keep telling each other that every review of ‘Love Aaj Kal’ will start with a standard line - 'After the super success of ‘Jab We Met’, Imtiaz, Pritam and Irshad Kamil (the lyricist) reunite with ‘Love Aaj Kal’. So does the soundtrack create a similar magic? Does it meet or exceed the expectations? etc. etc.' What we are nervous about it to get the answers to these questions. I hope it is yes, yes and yes!"
