Laila Teri

Laila Teri - from the movie Shoot out at Wadala did face some controversy, the original version of the song lyrics was like Laila Teri Le Legi. But as the makers wanted to retain the word and if done so the the censor board would've given it an adult rating. Due to which they wouldn't have been able to air it on TV during prime time. Therefore they changed the words to 'Laila Tujhe Loot Legi'.

Past Imperfect

Other than that Bollywood has some other songs which do give out a double meaning, but some how these songs dodged the legal action. 'Bitto Sabki Lega' from the movie Bittoo Boss, and 90's Anil Kapoor and Juhi starrer Andaaz film's song, 'Khada Hai Khada Hai' and many more. These all songs have a double meaning, the lyrics of the song were knitted with so much perspicacity that inspite of saying so much, the song the somewhere fell in the purview of acceptability.
