The composition of this song was based on Aditya Chopra's brief to Jatin - Lalit to compose a song like "Bachna Ae Haseeno" ("Hum Kisise Kum Naheen", 1977), but for Shammi Kapoor.[1]
Shah Rukh Khan, who had to hold Kajol up in a dance pose in the song's closing, was supposed to let her fall when the song ended. Kajol was not told about this in order to capture her spontaneous reaction.
