Going further in his interview, Sajid Khan opened up about the way he had motivated himself and the first thing he thought of achieving to start his own journey after the demise of his brother, Wajid Khan. He said, "However, I realised that I couldn't afford to slip as we had achieved success after a lot of hard work. The first step was to regain Salman bhai's confidence, as we have had a long association with him." When Sajid was asked if he feels the presence of Wajid while doing his work, the emotional songwriter answered that he feels Wajid's presence all the time and added, "I was apprehensive about my capabilities, but I feel Wajid's presence all the time.

At the end of his conversation, Sajid Khan stated that in Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, he had penned and sung the title track of the film, and it is for the first time in his career he has done that. The composer thinks that God has given him this gift of writing and singing after taking Wajid away from him and his family. Sajid said, "I have composed two songs, out of which I've sung and penned one, the title track in this movie. Writing has come to me as a gift from God after he took Wajid away." The delighted composer also added that he was always a standby, when his brother was alive. But now, Wajid has given him the power to take their legacy forward. He added, "Salman bhai was so impressed with my singing that he has given me a song in his other film, Antim. I never thought that I could sing as I never liked my voice. I was always a standby, but my brother has given me the power to take the legacy ahead."
