When I was a young kid, I was made to believe that the hero-heroine would always be seen singing their love songs while running around trees. I am not very sure because I have not seen too many such songs.

This song is a fun timepass song or tapori song, whichever classification suits you. The movie itself was a lighthearted movie.
