However, Mirror has discovered another unoriginal, less flattering muse. The song Sonam is dancing to, Engine ki seeti me maro man dole, is the straight lift of an Alka Yagnik track composed by Anu Malik for the '90s Jeetendra-Jaya Prada starrer, Maa. That song had a portly Kader Khan wooing Sahila Chaddha, in what looks like an amusement park, to the same tune.
