Hoshwalon Ko Khabar Kya |
Sarfarosh |
Jagjit Singh |
Jatin-Lalit |
A subtle, but melodious ghazal likely
overlooked by most in this patriotic saga. |
| 29 |
Is Deewane Ladke Ko |
Sarfarosh |
Aamir Khan, Alka Yagnik |
Jatin-Lalit |
Poor Seema
spends a life-time trying to explain the meaning of love to Ajay Singh Rathod. Very peppy
and pleasant music by Jatin-Lalit. |
| 28 |
Meri Duniya Hai |
Vaastav |
Sonu Nigam, Kavita Krishnamurthy |
Jatin-Lalit |
Musical respite in this Sanjay Dutt
gangster drama when the don and his gorgeous bride sing a love duet on their honeymoon.
Sonu Nigam's voice gets better by the minute and nice to have Kavita back. |
| 27 |
Ramta Jogi |
Taal |
Sukhwindara Singh, Alka Yagnik |
A.R. Rahman |
I know one of my 'relatives' is
going to be very happy with this song making the list. "Why not higher," I can
see her asking already. It is a vote-based poll Gramps. Not my fault. |
| 26 |
Kehna Hai Tumse |
Mann |
Udit Narayan, Hema Sardesai |
Sanjeev-Darshan |
Did you notice the gorgeous
Kashmiri locales in this post-interval tune from Mann? |
| 25 |
Khali Dil Nahin |
Kachche Dhaage |
Alka Yagnik, Hans Raj Hans |
Nusrat Fateh Ali
Khan |
An amazing Urdu and Punjabi
love duet without verbal diorhhea in the form of lyrics. Hallelujah! |
| 24 |
Sabki Baaratein Aayee |
Jaanam Samjha
Karo |
Jaspinder Narula |
Anu Malik |
So the chances of a girl like
Urmila being proposal-less are remote, but this sad yet funky tune was an Anu Malik
marvel. |
| 23 |
Hum Saath Saath Hain |
Hum Saath
Saath Hain |
Hariharan, Anuradha Paudwal, Kumar Sanu,
Alka Yagnik |
Raam Lakshman |
Pray together. Eat together.
Stay together. Good idea, but only if the other songs of Hum Saath Saath Hain were as
great as this one. Who wants to spend all their time with family singing ABCDEF... to each
other all the time? |
| 22 |
Dilbar Dilbar |
Sirf Tum |
Alka Yagnik |
Nadeem Shravan |
Sushmita Sen does a Babe No.1
dance routine on the screen and Alka makes sure the vocals match. |
| 21 |
Raat Ki Daldal |
1947 -
Earth |
Sukhwindara Singh |
A.R. Rahman |
There is a sense of looming
danger listening to this song. Watching the subsequent, gruesome and graphic visuals in
the movie highlight the brilliance and perfection of the Rahman tune. |
