Here's the Twist:
Bollywood fans who are super happy to listen to the Judwaa theme being played in the stadium aren't aware that the popular tune was copied from a Telugu movie's song that was released in 1994. The tune is copied from Nagarjuna and Soundarya starrer Hello Brother's "Priya Raagale" song. Raj-Koti, a popular Telugu music composer duo, produced the music for the song "Priya Raagale". Technically, it cannot be called a copy, as the same composer, Koti, crafted its tune. So, it's not really a copy but a shared delight for both Bollywood and Telugu cinema fans.

A Fan Says Judwaa
Another Fan Said-
Thats All? No, Here’s the Ultimate Twist!
Well, for all the Telugu fans rejoicing, here's another twist. Looks like Mr Koteshwara Rao (Koti) also needed some inspiration for the iconic theme song. Here's the thing, Koti also copied the music from Deep Forest, a French musical duo who are known for mixing ethnic-electronic beats and making chillout beats. The Judwaa background theme sounds exactly like Deep Forest's 1992 song "White Whisper".
