Feedback from Indian Film Stalwarts:

"Music is a medium to express people's emotions. Many thousands of years ago, early men created music probably through clapping or tapping feet, later on inventing musical instruments and finally now it has come to electronic music. So it is very interesting and fascinating. Axl has done a wonderful job on the Goru Bihu song.",said Manju Borah, Multiple National Award winning filmmaker.

The legendary Assamese music director Tapan Bhattacharyaof the famous duo Jitu-Tapan who created evergreen songs like "Axomire Sutalote" and represented Assam in Bollywood in the 1960s quoted, "I just listened to a beautiful song by Axl Hazarika, both the audio and video are excellent. My best wishes are with them. And I expect a lot of such good work from them in the future."

"In a straightforward manner I'd like to say that there's a beautiful simplicity in their creation Goru Bihu Song and the entire initiative is mindblowing. They have used traditional words and highly westernized music. I personally loved it. They have a target audience. They have successfully crossed the barrier in order to globalize Assamese culture, so that when a foreigner looks at the video he will be attracted to Assam's traditional attire and folk dance. On the other hand, Assamese NRI living abroad can also proudly show off their culture through this video. When you want to go abroad, you cannot go by a bullock cart, you have to take a flight. So they have tried to take our culture abroad in a similar way and I appreciate that a lot." said veteran Assamese director and screenwriter Bani Das.

Assam's beloved singer-composer J. P. Das said, "I'd like to thank Axl for showing me the future that I won't live to see through this video. Bihu will remain but we might get to see the kind shown in Goru Bihu Song after 5 years in Chandmari Bihu itself. Experience and technology are 2 ways man can learn and execute things. One can learn from experience like Manju Borah. Axl has done using technology and this will last. Many artists claim to take Assamese music to the international scene. But this I believe is the first real attempt that can take Assamese music to the international level. Axl, if you continue doing such work, you will really go far. I thank them for their courage for the tremendous attempt at such a young age."
