During a candid conversation, Kapil inquires about Gayle's collaboration with Arko for a song, asking whether Gayle possesses rap skills or if he had to learn it.

"When he shared the track with me, he provided a rough version and said: "This is what I'm looking for.' It was a new experience for me. I instantly vibed with the beat, and he suggested, 'Hey, let's make it happen'. It turned out to be a great collaboration."
