We decided to look at other cases where Indian songs were used in Hollywood films.
Take a look.

That's some way of recreating the song that featured in Bollywood's China Gate and had a Urmila Matondkar in an exotic headgear dancing to the song.

Uma Thurman-starrer The Accidental Husband features Tamil song Swasme from the film Thenali that released in 2000.
Sung by SP Balasubrahmanyam and Sadhana Sargam, the song serves as a backdrop while Uma Thurman is falling for the dishy Jeffrey Dean Morgan and the loved-up couple can't take their eyes off each other even though Thurman's character is at work.
