Release and Success
In it's review Indicine wrote, It’s a case of ‘love at first listen’ with ‘Gerua’, courtesy a soothing composition filled with a traditional setting (except for the opening 20 seconds that are misfit and strange). The flute in the beginning takes your heart away while Arijit, who has perfected the art of rendering romantic numbers, only ends up raising the bar with Gerua. We bet this one will stay in your playlist for long.[3]
Reception
Upon it's release the Music video of the song garnered 1.6 million views on Facebook and Youtube. The song trended on 62 countries worldwide.[2] The composer of the song Pritam said- "The rection on gerua from everywhere is very heartwarming".[2]

Cinematography
The Music video of the song is shot in Iceland, the song's visuals are filled with scenaries of lush green mountains tops, waterfalls, rainbow or a wrecked plane on a deserted spot. [2]
The entertainment portals praised Rohit Shetty's Cinematography and direction of the music video, they wrote "Rohit has done an amazing job of capturing the elusive beauty and thats the reason behind why this song is different from any other song. Shah Rukh and Kajol have mesmerizing and super hot chemistry. They have created the same magic which was done in Suraj Hua Madham. Rohit Shetty has given a real treat to eyes and we are quite sure audiences will fall in love with the mesmerizing beauty of Iceland."[1]
