Dum Maaro Dum holds a special place in all our hearts and its melodious tune makes it a timeless classic. It was a mix of Pancham Da's creativity and relentlessness that brought this song to life, revealed Vishal Dadlani on MX Player's Times of Music. Episode 7 of this musical extravaganza is a special tribute episode that celebrates the one and only 'Boss' - R.D. Burman.

And who better to pay this tribute, than the hugely talented acts - Amit Trivedi reimagining R.D. Burman's song Aanewala Pal Janewala Hai while Mohan Kannan and Koco of the band Agnee will reimagine R.D Burman's Hum Kisise Kum Nahi.

The hugely popular composer, singer, performer and songwriter - Vishal Dadlani donned the hat of host for this series and in his chat with Amit Trivedi and Agnee, he spoke about how Dum Maaro Dum was initially rejected in the film and Pancham Da had to convince the director to put it in!

Sharing this trivia, Vishal Dadlani said `There's a famous Pancham Da song, which had been rejected by the film's director/producer at the time. When I tell you the name of this song, you may not be able to believe that such an iconic song was rejected. Pancham Da had to convince the director to put this song in at that particular junction in the film. It was only because of his total conviction that the song was shot and even then, it wasn't certain whether or not the song would actually be kept in the film. This song is the legendary 'Dum Maaro Dum`!
