The album received positive responses from critics . Nikhil Taneja of '' Hindustan Times '' wrote that " each song in '' Udaan '' literally takes flight from a soft , seminal intro , building up to a crescendo of indie , alternative rock " , calling the title song " one of the most soul-stirring tracks of this year " . Kashmin Fernandes of '' Mid Day '' said that the music and lyrics " run through with the innocent optimism " , and called the album an " uplifting gem " . Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama wrote , " Udaan is one of those albums that do n't necessarily take a huge start at the music stands . " '' Udaan '' premiered in the Un Certain Regard section of the 2010 Cannes Film Festival as '' The Flight '' , and received a standing ovation . It was the first Indian film represented at Cannes in seven years , and it was also screened at the Giffoni Film Festival and the 2011 Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles . Kashyap released a letter he wrote to his parents in 1993 ( when he left home and went to Mumbai ) , and he and Motwane destroyed a car — imitating a scene in the film — for a promotion
