Trivia

Album

• This was actress Sonakshi Sinha's debut film.
• This was the directorial debut of Anurag Kashyap's brother, Abhinav Kashyap.
• This was the husband-wife duo, Arbaaz Khan and Malaika Arora Khan's, first film as producers. They also appeared in the film - Arbaaz in a supporting role and Malaika in an item song.
• This was the first film in the "Dabangg" series. The three films in the series had several cast and crew members in common, including actors Salman Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, and Arbaaz Khan, writer Dilip Shukla, and music directors Sajid - Wajid. However, all three had different directors. While this film was directed by Abhinav Kashyap, the second film was directed by Arbaaz Khan and the third by Prabhu Deva.[1][2]
• This film was remade in Tamil as "Osthe" (2011) and in Telugu as "Gabbar Singh" (2012).
• This was the first time that Filmfare gave the Best Music Director award for a film that involved more than one music director. Sajid - Wajid and Lalit Pandit won this award. There were two other instances of the Filmfare Award for Best Music Director being shared by music directors - by Mithoon, Jeet Ganguly, and Ankit Tiwari for "Aashiqui 2" (2013) and by Ankit Tiwari, Meet Bros Anjjan, and Amal Malik for "Roy" (2015). These awards signalled a significant trend in the Hindi film music of the 2010s - multi-composer albums. Perhaps in recognition of this trend, Filmfare renamed the category to 'Best Music Album' in 2017. Pritam was the first recipient of this Filmfare Award for the film "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" (2016) after the change in name of the category.[3][4][5]

Song

• Munni Badnaam Hui Darling Tere Liye - The makers of this film got into a legal wrangle with the makers of Zandu Balm for using their brand name in this song. The matter was settled out of court when producer Arbaaz Khan's wife, Malaika Arora, who played Munni in the song, agreed to endorse the brand in a TV ad.[6]
• Munni Badnaam Hui Darling Tere Liye - This song may have been an adaptation of a UP folk song, "Launda Badnaam Hua". It appears that this folk song was also adapted by Bappi Lahiri in the film "Rock Dancer" (1995). It's also possible that the source of inspiration of these songs might have been a song from an obscure Pakistani film "Mr. Charlie" (1992).[7][8]
• Munni Badnaam Hui Darling Tere Liye - This was the debut Hindi film song of singer Mamta Sharma.
• Munni Badnaam Hui Darling Tere Liye - Sajid - Wajid adapted the hook line of this song for their song "Munna Badnaam Hua" ("Dabangg 3", 2019).[9]
• Hud Hud Dabangg - Sajid - Wajid reused the hook line of this song in "Dabangg Reloaded" ("Dabangg 2", 2012) and "Hud Hud Dabang" ("Dabangg 3", 2019).[10][11]
