Iconic song 'Dus Bahane' was an afterthought, reveals Sinha
Speaking to Times Now, Sinha revealed that Dus Bahane, a key element of the film's success, was not part of the original plan. He shared, "Do you know it was an afterthought? My music directors Vishal-Sheykhar suggested a hip-hop tune for the promos." "Fortunately, my producer liked it. And we were on. And in spite of the flak, the film got a much better initial than many other big guns. I can't complain." It was sung by Shaan and KK.
