Jugni IS pakistani. It's an old religious folk song that has been sung for generations in villages in punjab pakistan. I'm talking about the song that starts Alif Allah chambe dhi bhuti. Other songs that have completely different lyrics but use the phrase 'Mereya Jugni' (like in Tanu Weds Manu) are completely different songs - with different origins. So I don't know what you're going on about. The phrase 'Mereya Jugn'i has been used in poems since the very early 1900s/late 1800s - it's just a phrase. Not every song called Jugni is the same thing.

But this isn't a big deal anyway who gives a damn where they came from, I was just saying I associate the songs more with Pakistan, and the film with India. However If it makes you feel better - they're all from india. Everything is.

jugni is there even before 1947 😉

Yea I already pointed that out in my post; the exact post you quoted. What is it with people on this forum not bothering to read things before responding. The Mereya Jugni phrase has been used in poetry since the very early 1900s. However the use of the phrase does not equate to a singular origin of a song. The songs that use the phrase are all completely different songs. The tanu weds Manu Jugni was one song. The Jugni that begins 'Alif Allah chambe dhi bhuti' is a completely different poem - it's origins are pakistani and it's been sung by pakistani villagers for generations.

This is my last post on this topic. It's never-ending.
