The song's chorus was adapted from the popular Punjabi wedding song "Latthe Di Chaadar". According to some, the change in lyrics from the original "Lathe di chaadar utte saleti rang mahiya" to "Latthe di chaadar utte honeymoon kar mahiya" in this song was objectionable. The tune of this Punjabi song was used earlier for the mukhda of the Hindi film song "Laai Hoon Raja Baghon Se Chun Ke Rang Saare" ("Baazigar", 1959).[1][2][3]
