Jugal Hansraj added, “As I was also in the film business and was already acting, I told him that he will make a really nice film with the topic. He also discussed the film titles he was considering and ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ was one of them. So, I went home and was thinking about the story all night. Suddenly, this tune came to my mind while I was sleeping; I woke up in the middle of the night, humming the tune. Before I could forget it, I recorded it on a dictaphone. Next day, I sang the tune out and Karan loved it. He made me sing it 4-5 times.”
Jugal Hansraj further talking about the story and his contribution said, “A month later, Karan called me and said that he was working on the Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’s music with composers Jatin-Lalit and that they are doing a great job with it, but for the title track, my tune was stuck in his head. So, he requested me to come over and sing the tune again. First I thought he was joking but the song was really used, and to date, the Dharma Productions logo has my tune playing in the background. So, I am very happy and proud. Also, the antaras from the ‘Mohabbatein’ song, ‘Chalte Chalte’ were composed by me.”
