In an interview with Komal Nahta, veteran lyricist Sameer discussed his career and collaborations. When asked what kind of song he would write for Shah Rukh Khan today, Sameer expressed enthusiasm about working on a romantic film with the actor, though he acknowledged that the passage of time makes it challenging to replicate the style of earlier hits like 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'. Sameer and Khan have collaborated on eight films spanning from 1992 to 2002, including beloved romantic dramas and musicals.

During the same conversation, Sameer selected 'Raja Hindustani' as an album deserving rediscovery by younger audiences, revealed that 'Chitthi Aai Hai' is a song he wished he had written, and identified 'Suno Gaur Se Duniya Waalon' as one of his own works he is particularly proud of. He also discussed working with composer A.R. Rahman on 'The Legend Of Bhagat Singh', describing it as exceptionally challenging due to the historical significance of the subject matter.
