Sharing his excitement on the win, a beaming Haitham said, “I’m so grateful for everything I have got in my life. I never imagined a simple guy from Oman, who left his job aspiring to become a singer, would get so much love. I especially want to thank the lovely people of India, who gave me so much love and made me feel at home all this while, when I was hundreds of miles away from it. The contestants, crew and the judges of Dil Hai Hindustani are like family now; it will be difficult to imagine my life without them. Thank you to everyone who voted for me for making my dream come true.”
