When the director came to know about this mistake, he took such a decision whose mistake was also covered. Today, people like this song a lot and it is often heard after 38 years.
Laxmikant Pyarelal composed music of the film
Anil Kapoor and Sridevi were seen in the lead roles in the film Mr. India, released in 1987. Along with this, Amrish Puri played the role of Villain Mogenbo in this film.

Sridevi’s dance on this song then forced people to dance in theaters. But there was a mistake in this song that even today few people know. The song has used a wrong word in the song, despite knowing that music director Laxmikant Pyarelal allowed the song to be released.
What is the mistake in the song?
The song was decorated with Kavita Krishnamurthy with her melodious voice and Sridevi’s dance was superhit. The song was written by Javed Akhtar and was proud in very good words. There is a line in the song that ‘Janu Jo Tum Baat Hide’, but in place of this Janu, Kavita sang Jinu. However, Kavita later realized this and demanded the director to replace it.
