However, there was a discussion on social media about him getting his due as a creator on Instagram. People argued that the music label that turned his song into a trending reel by adding music to it should pay him for his creation.

Post the internet outrage, Gopal Ghose of Godhulibela Music announced that they are paying the singer-composer a sum of Rs. 3 lakh.

In addition to the money, Badyakar has been honoured by the West Bengal police department. A remixed version of the song with Badyakar has also been released as a music video, which is available on YouTube.
