\"'JayaChoreographer Chinni Prakash revealed that Amitabh Bachchan and the team initially feared the ‘Jumma Chumma De De’ hook step might appear vulgar.

How the song was introduced<\/p>\n

Talking to Friday Talkies, Chinni shared, \u201cThis song was played to me by Amitabh Bachchan in his vanity van. In those days, there used to be only two vanity vans \u2014 one belonged to Amitabh Bachchan and the other to Manmohan Desai<\/a>. He had one disk and a speaker, and he made me hear the song. Even during those times, 1989\u201390, he kept high-tech speakers with him.\u201d<\/p>\n
