Looking at the photo, Karisma got nostalgic and said, “This is Coolie No 1 and I think it is one of my initial songs (Main To Raste Se Ja Raha Tha) with Chi Chi Bhaiya. We actually shot ‘Husn Hai Suhana’ before this. I think by then, we had struck a chemistry and a friendship. This was kind of my first massy song.”
