The tune of this song may have been inspired by the nursery rhymes "Polly Wolly Doodle" and "A Tisket A Tasket". A similar tune was also used in the Hindi film song "Beech Bajariya Paaon Pakad Kar" ("Madmast", 1953). "Polly Wolly Doodle" also inspired "Uthe Sabke Kadam" ("Baton Baton Mein", 1979). "A Tisket A Tasket" was adapted for two other Hindi film songs - "Bachpan O Bachpan Pyare Bachpan" ("Mem Didi", 1961) and "Ladna Jhagadna" ("Duplicate", 1998).[1][2][3][4][5][6]
