Dhoom Dhoom Dhoom Dhoom Dholak Bajaana from Baap Numbri Beta Dus Numbri.
The tune of the first line of this song was perhaps adapted from the Hindi film song "Kahin Pe Nigahen Kahin Pe Nishana" ("C.I.D.", 1956). Nadeem - Shravan used this tune again for the song "Ram Narayan Baaja Bajaata" ("Saajan Chale Sasural", 1996). The song 'Kahin Pe Nigahen' from CID sound's like an interesting version of Ragupathy Raghava Rajaram Anu Malik had also used the same base to create 'Dil Ka Darwaza' in Main Khiladi Tu Anari.
