==Music==<br />
The track is frenzied [[Celtic music]] with [[Bluegrass music|bluegrass]] [[fiddling]] accustomed by [[Ehsaan Noorani|Ehsaan]]'s [[Acoustic guitar|acoustic guitar riffs]] and [[flute]].

<br />
==Music Video==<br />
The song is known for its comical picturization, where choreographer [[Farah Khan]] pays tribute to Bollywood, for the first time. The song spoofs the 60s, 70s and 80s of Hindi Cinema in a completely unique and funny way through the immensely peppy and the already-chartbuster song.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://vivekranjit.blogspot.com/2009/10/dil-chahta-hai-movie-that-completely.html |title=VR Talkies: Dil Chahta Hai - Perfection Ko Improve Karna Mushqil Hota Hai |publisher=Vivekranjit.blogspot.com |date=2001-07-24 |accessdate=2012-03-15}}</ref> The scene features Sameer played by [[Saif Ali Khan]] and [[Sonali Kulkarni]] who plays Pooja, going into a theater playing a [[Musical film|musical]], and sees themselves in screen instead. The song pays homage to the 60s, 70s and 80s as it progresses.<ref>{{cite web|author=|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzUXDb1cfro |title=The Making of Dil Chahta Hai - Part 3 |publisher=YouTube |date=2009-07-29 |accessdate=2012-03-15}}</ref><br />
