Hindi song in "Inside man" !!

We were in the movie theatre to watch the new Denzel Washington movie "Inside man". As the main titles came up on the screen there was an all familiar audio in the back ground -" Jinke sar ho ishq ki.." from Dil Se !! It was totally unexpected. We never heard anyone mention it before and at first we thought it was playing by mistake. But then as the titles rolled on the whole "Chaiya Chaiya" was playing in the background.
I will be interested in finding out how Spike Lee ( movie director) ended up with the Sukhwindhar's number from Dil Se.

i would love to see the day that anu mallik tries to sue hollywood for plagiarism..

that would make me really happy..

most hindi / tamil movies in recent times that my wife calls a hit has an original screenplay.. recently watched this taxi movie with nana patekar.. copy of "changing lanes".. there was this movie Zehar (supposed to be original story) it was copy of out of time (a denzel movie).. then there was this amitabh movie ajnabi or something (again original story according to my desi sources) turns out to be a line by line copy of Man on Fire (another denzel movie). in fact the subtitles were the original movie dialogues !!! not worried about Dil Se song ending up in english movie. tit for tat !!

Spike Lee liked AR Rahuman's bombay dreams, thus he choose the song from Dil Se as the Title & End song for "Inside man". The movie "Ray" too has ARR's music as background for one of the scenes.
