In the first Dabangg, Salman Khan tried to woo Sonakshi Sinha with his childlike persona and charm. In a beautifully composed and filmed Tere Mast Mast Do Nain, Sajid-Wajid, the music composers, infused romance into a story filled with rust and grit. This was a film straight from the heartland of India, brimming with old-world charm and high-octane intensity.

In Dabangg 2, Khan and Sinha, who were then married, danced to the tunes of Dagabaaz Nain, and it may not have been as memorable as the previous song, it certainly was a hummable melody. The sweetness in the chemistry between Chulbul Pandey and Rajjo was intact. Their playful banter and passionate romance powered the film to huge commercial success.
