This song has a line with the tune of another song in the film - "Poochho Na Yaar Kya Hua".
This song opens with Shailendra Singh singing a couplet whose recitation has been part of the opening logo of every Nasir Husain Film - "Kya ishq ne samjha hai kya husn ne jaana hai hum khaak nasheenon ki thokar mein zamana hai". This couplet is a variation of a shair written by lyricist Majrooh Sultanpuri's mentor, Jigar Moradabadi. It was derived by switching the words "husn" and "ishq" in the original shair.
