Indian actor Jaya Prada is spilling the beans on her famous song De De Pyar De from movie Sharaabi(1984).
The actor who appeared as a guest-judge on SONY TV's Indian Idol 12, revealed that the Amitabh Bachchan's iconic step in the song was the result of an accident.
Prada shared that Amitabh had burnt his hand from a firecracker right before the filming of the song and decided to keep his injured hand in the pocket during the dance.
"Gaana jo peppy song hai, iske piche Amitji ka ek kahani hai. Is gaane ke andar jo hai bohut active hona zaruri hai, lekin Amitji is a legend. Unko apne sthithi ka kis tarah advantage lena hai he knows it. Because unke haath mein jo pataakhe se jal haya haath, usko ek style ke naate, unhone jeb mein haath rakh kar, ek kerchief rakh ke haath rakh liya aur woh gaana de de pyar de (There is a story of Amitji behind the peppy song. It is important to be active in this song but Amitji is a legend. He knows how to turn the situation to his advantage. He had burnt his hand with firecrackers but he made it a style and kept the hand, wrapped in a handkerchief, in his pocket while he danced to the song)."
