    Harnaaz Sandhu, who made her acting debut with Tiger Shroff's Baaghi 4, said, "Shooting for 'Marjaana' was one of the most emotionally demanding experiences I've had so far. Unlike the other songs in Baaghi 4, this one wasn't about dance or glamour, it was about stillness, about silence, about letting the ache show in my eyes." 

    She added, "There was a lot to learn and explore as I was embodying Alisha both as a memory and a woman going through a trial. It is thrilling to experience how powerful cinema can be while depicting the tough moments of life. Marjaana gave me space to be vulnerable, and I hope that honesty connects with the audience the way it connected with me while shooting."
