In her song, Aabha tells the tale of women from Chamba's highlands who describe their daily life. The lovely singer's voice and the pahadi lyrics in the song transport listeners to the highlands. The songs "Hukus Bukus," "Sahibo," and "Madano" by Aabha had previously been a hit with music fans and have won praise from well-known artists all over the world. At the 7th annual Radio City Freedom Awards, her song Madano received a nomination for Best Folk Fusion Song. She is one of the most in-demand folk musicians in the nation thanks to her distinctive fusion of traditional Kashmiri music with modern styles.

Speaking about the song's inspiration, Aabha Hanjura's communiqué, “Hikduye Gadbad is a happy song about a girl from the hills and I relate to this songs naughty happy vibe it's percussive yet soulful and we had a lot of fun shooting a colorful video for this track and as I wrap the EP Folk Sessions with this last song, I hope I hope my listeners from all over especially, Jammu and Himachal Pradesh will connect to this song as much as I did”
