Paramita voiced her desire to Anup Jalota that she wanted one of her poems to be made into a song by him. So they zeroed in on ‘Love Grows’ and a new song was born. It’s also the first song of Paramita to be made into a video and her recitation has added substance to the music video.
“Playing Lord Krishna is a special feeling, that too in a self-composed song. The team was fantastic including my co-singer and co-lyricist Dipti. It was great that the very talented actor Geetanjali became a part of the song,” Jalota said.
Geetanjali, who is known for her role in shows such as “Ballika Vadhu”, “Crime Patrol” and “Savdhaan India”, said: “Being known for mostly being a criminal or victim in crime shows of Indian television, getting to play a part of this song was a different and pleasant experience. I have never done a shoot for a song, not just devotional. With such a situation I feel really blessed to play the character of Radha ji.”
The song is composed and sung by Anup Jalota and the music has been arranged by music composer Jolly Mukherjee.
