One of the biggest highlights of Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke (1993), which completes 30 years of its release today, was the song Ghoonghat Ki Aad Se, composed by Nadeem-Shravan. Actor Juhi Chawla recalls that she and co-actor Aamir Khan memorably joined forces with just assistants for the filming of the song in Udaipur, Rajasthan.

“We had shot the film and just this song was left. I don’t know why but only the assistants turned up on shoot. Mahesh Bhatt (director), Tahir saab (Hussain, producer), Pravin Bhatt (cinematographer), Saroj Khan (choreographer) — everyone sent theirs. The kids were so talented. Sometimes, you can’t explain how magic happens,” the actor recalls, adding that Khan was “very hands-on while shooting” with his suggestions, as it was his father’s production.

“In one of the scenes, he told me to jump before I started running, to give the scene a comic feel. He kept a poker face in certain scenes, knowing if he did that, the situation and all of us acting would look funnier,” she signs off.
