After a soulful rendition of "Maula mere maula" for the movie "Anwar", Rathod has sung another Sufi song titled "Teri justajoo" that he says is an extension of the previous one. "'Teri Justajoo' is a Sufi song and has been compiled by music director Kuldip Singh's son Harpreet. This song is actually an extension of my song 'Maula mere maula'," Rathod told IANS. "Teri Justajoo" is the only fresh song in an album of the same name, which is a compilation of popular songs by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, *A.R. Rahman* and Kailash Kher among others.
