She confessed that, “my knowledge of Urdu literature begins and ends with all what I have heard from Gulzar Saab. I find it a great honour to be here with him and launching a brilliant music album on Mirza Ghalib. I have seen portions of the television serial as a kid and loved the treatment given by Jagjit Singh and Gulzar Saab.” The album begins with a poem by Gulzar Saab which he wrote as a personal tribute after Jagjit Singh passed away. With Gulzar saab reading portions of letters of Ghalib as preludes to Ghazals, the album is a tribute dedicated to fond memories of Jagjit Singh. 1987 was the year when Gulzar Saab made a TV serial on Mirza Ghalib, the legendary Urdu poet. Gulzar Saab opted Jagjit Singh as a music composer – singer, where Salim Arif first time meet with Jagjit Singh. According to Gulzar, “I can’t make once again Ghalib, it’s Salim Arif album. He has invited me to conceive and script this album.”
