Featured review
This should go under Trivia AND movie connections
The Hindi song featured in the Indian musical within a musical at the end is Chama Chama from the Bollywood movie China Gate. Chama Chama is a show stopping song and dance number.
The second song was of course the Marily Monroe classic Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
This should be a trivia AND a movie connection, but I could not place it there, so I am putting it under comments.
Maybe IMDb could put a user submission trivia link, even links in other features for the movies.
It is also difficult to correct more than one misspelled word per submission.
