She also has purple maroon lipstick.

She now wears a red and cyan sari with golden borders, her patent stiletto boots are now cyan, her bangles are now red and cyan, and her hoop earrings are now golden. Her hair is now also cyan. Her glove is also malibu.
Background[]
Original[]
The routine takes place in a small town, likely in India, with shops and power lines outside in the night. Behind the dancer is an auto rickshaw, a small vehicle, with a light that flashes. Also, a shooting star appears in the sky at some points. At some parts of the routine, confetti rains down. In Just Dance: Greatest Hits, the background is lighter.
Remake[]
In the remake, the routine takes place in front of a large group of buildings, with light patterns flashing. At one point, the background goes mostly dark except for the light patterns. It seems to be a modern place in India.

Trivia[]
- Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny) is the second song by The Pussycat Dolls in the series.
- There were some changes in the lyrics throughout all games.
- A. R. Rahman’s voice saying "Jai Ho!" is not included in the lyrics in the original version of the routine, but has been included in the remake.
- "Chase" (from the line "I’ll never lose the chase") is misinterpreted as "chance". This error was fixed in the remake.
- The original versions show "nothing" spelled in two ways: "nothing" and "nothin’".
- In the remake, when "Jai Ho!" is sung just before the second verse, the entire line is instantly highlighted, and then the word "Escape" instantly appears in place of said line, being almost fully highlighted.
- On Just Dance 2018 and onwards, "Escape" is highlighted slower.
- Two unused pictogram from the original version can be found in the pictogram sprite for the remake.
- Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny) makes an appearance in four games without being a downloadable track- it holds the record along with Spectronizer and Nitro Bot.
- This is the first song that is included in four games without being a downloadable track on any of the games.
- When the coach is selected in the Party Master Mode of Birthday, her moves are off-sync to the music.
- In the remake, when the dancer changes color, despite her glove being blue, the pictogram’s arrows are still yellow.
