The album is mainly Hindi-language covers of songs by the American singer Madonna, and the cover shows Alisha wearing provocative clothes similar to Madonna's at the period.[2][3] The album was promoted with a four city tour.[4] The Indian press reported that the American singer had actually acknowledged Alisha's tribute,[5] but a reaction came from Indian rapper Baba Sehgal who responded to Alisha's tour and album with a lampoon song "Madonna", where he also dressed as the American singer.[6]
