“Meri Maa (Vande Mataram) carries the purpose of representing the significance of India, our motherland, to her citizens and to remind and restore the importance of our cultural heritage to Indians settled within India and abroad. We are dedicating this song as a gratitude to how we have been raised with Indian values by our parents and to all those who have inspired us to recognize, realize and represent our heritage. We were greatly inspired by AR Rahman's "Maa Tujhe Salaam" from his 1997 Vande Mataram album, and with "Meri Maa" we hope to bring back that sense of patriotism to our people” - Joint quote
