The Electronic Dance Music version by the artist remained the only official remix of the track till the Gareth Emery remix in 2017. The song was chosen to be remixed and reproduced by Sanjoy in October 2014. A happy romantic number, it brings the story of a lover sharing his happiness with the world ' while some critics call it a self centered narration of a lover's heart along with darkness. Melodious and rhythmic, it has meaningful lyrics. Sung by Arijit Singh, it starts slowly but gradually picks up the pace.

Arijit’s voice does touch the listener’s heart and lyrics support the passion as well.' IANS wrote, 'The album opens with 'Tum hi ho'. Composer Mithoon has penned the lyrics for this passionate ballad which might remind one of the rest of the Bhatt music that have been heard in abundance in recent times, right from Raaz 3 to Jism 2.

' Koimoi commented, 'Album opens with a heavy and deep voice of Arijit Singh crooning Tum Hi Ho. The piano, strings and beats are very effective in creating an eerie romantic atmosphere for the singer to transform the song and Arijit Singh does that magnificently. A chartbusting musical experience indeed.' Planet Bollywood commented 'The song has all the hallmarks of a Mithoon creation it’s soulful, extremely touching and of course it’s dripping with melody. 'Tum Hi Ho' and 'Sunn Raha Hai' (both versions) are our favourites, but 'Chahun Main Ya Naa' and 'Piya Aaye Na' end up as a close second. Glamsham gave a rating of 5 stars out of 5 and said, 'It is indeed an exhilarating experience listening to the songs of Aashiqui 2 and in this age of mundane and average/repetitive musical fares that are being churned out, the audio of Aashiqui 2 is surely a treat for all music buffs.
