Around 40 seconds in, many fans claim that the background music sounds very similar to “Mere Rang Mein Rangne Wali”, which is Salman Khan and Bhagyashree’s 1989 blockbuster Maine Pyar Kiya.The observation quickly went viral, with social media users sharing the clip and drawing comparisons between the two songs.One fan wrote on X, “BGM of Salman Khan’s iconic character Prem included in Jumanji trailer.”Another directed viewers to a different part of the trailer, writing: “Skip to 2:24 and you’ll hear Mere Rang Mein’s autotune right there.”A third user added, “At 0:41 Jumanji’s background music sounds like it was copied from Salman Khan’s film Maine Pyaar Kiya.” For a moment, a classic Bollywood melody seemed to blend into one of Hollywood’s biggest adventure franchises.However, the excitement was short-lived as some users pointed out that the music did not reference “Maine Pyar Kiya” at all.One user replied: “This is the final countdown (I sincerely hope your tweet was sarcastic).”The tune heard in the trailer is very similar to Swedish rock band Europe’s legendary 1986 hit “The Final Countdown.” Interestingly, music lovers have long discussed the similarities between parts of Ram-Laxman’s compositions for “Maine Pyar Kiya” and iconic European rock songs, which may explain why so many listeners immediately associated the trailer’s soundtrack with Mere Rang Mein Rangne Wali.For those who don’t know, The Final Countdown was born in 1986 and Maine Pyar Kiya was released in 1989.
