The first song shot for this film, "Tanha Tanha", was choreographed by Saroj Khan. Ram Gopal Varma was not happy with the dance moves in the song and wanted something more modern. Consequently, he had the rest of the songs in the film choreographed by the debutant, Ahmed Khan. Ahmed Khan ended up winning the Filmfare Award for Best Choreography for this song.
This was the debut Hindi film song of Udit Narayan's son Aditya Narayan. He also made a cameo appearance in the film to perform his lines in the song.
Cover versions of this song were recorded for the films "Not A Love Story" (2011) and "Bhangra Paa Le" (2019).[1][2]
