It’s already November and the wedding season has started in full swing. A typical Indian wedding is a grand affair with the celebrations going on for many days at a stretch. Sangeet is an integral part and parcel of north Indian weddings. These days people from all around the country celebrate the sangeet event with full fervour, so here we have a few energetic Bollywood Songs which would help you celebrate the lively and colourful Sangeet function with more enthusiasm.
London Thumakda
Music: Amit Trivedi
Singers: Labh Janjua, Sonu Kakkad, Neha Kakkar
Lyrics: Anvita Dutt
How many of you remember the 2014 Bollywood comedy-drama film “Queen” directed by Vikas Bahl? Kangana Ranaut played the lively and vivacious lead character Rani Mehra and “London Thumakda” is one of the most rocking wedding songs from ‘Queen’. People from all over the world have loved it. Even non-Indians have reviewed this brilliant track. You’ll love dancing your heart out with Rani Mehra’s entire family. This song truly depicts the grand and vibrant festivities of an Indian wedding.
Balle Balle Je Soniya
Music: Anu Malik
Singers: Gayatri Ganjawala
Lyrics: Dev Kohli
“Balle Balle Je Soniya Dey Rang Dekhlo, Bina Dor Dee Udadee, Patang Dekh Lo”, remember this peppy and entertaining track from the 2004 film ‘Bride and Prejudice?’ Our gorgeous and beautiful Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and the glamorous actor from Newzealand Martin Henderson played the lead roles in this movie directed by Gurinder Chadha. The film ‘Bride and Prejudice’ is an adaptation of the world famous novel ‘Pride and Prejudice’ by Jane Austen. This song quite captivatingly depicts a coming together of the Indian and the American culture in all their glory.
Yeh Galiyan Yeh Chaubara
Music: Laxmikant, Pyarelal
Singers: Lata Mangeshkar
Lyrics: Narendra Sharma, Santosh Anand
We saw Padmini Kohlapure lipsyncing to “Yeh Galiyan Yeh Chaubara, Yahan Aana Na Dobara” in the 1982 romantic Bollywood film ‘Prem Rog’ directed by the phenomenal Raj Kapoor. Rishi Kapoor and Padmini Kohlapure were the protagonists in the film. This classic sangeet track denotes the sad and melancholic condition of the bride, as she is preparing to leave her parents house but behind all the sadness there is happiness and joy as she is about to start a new life with her husband.
Nachde Ne Saare
Music: Jasleen Royal
Singers: Jasleen Royal, Harshdeep Kaur and Siddharth Mahadevan
Lyrics: Aditya Sharma
This one has recently been rocking all the wedding sangeet functions. ‘Munda Thoda Offbeat Hai, Par Kudiya De Naal Bohat Sweet Hai’ are the starting lyrics for this cute sangeet melody. Believe it or not, but you’ll not be able to stop humming to this song days after you’ve stopped listening to it. Katrina Kaif, Siddharth Malhotra and the other side actors performing this dance have done a great job. You’ll love watching the Indian food, Mehendi, happy people and all the other fun going on around the wedding venue.
Punjabi Wedding Song
Music: Vishal, Shekhar
Singers: Sunidhi Chauhan, Benny Dayal, Vishal Dadlani
Lyrics: Amitabh Bhattacharya
Put your dancing shoes on and dance like crazy to this booming sangeet song. ‘I like Dandiya, I like Garba, But if you really Wanna Party, Throw Your Hands Up And Twist ’Em Around, Do The Bhangra Everybody, C’mon Do The Bhangra Everybody’. Parineeti Chopra and Siddharth Malhotra steal the show with their crazy bhangra moves in this song video. You’ll love the fervour with which all the wedding festivities are celebrated in the video. The beats and the rhythm are quite relaxing and if you still haven’t given this song a shot yet, then do listen to it now!
Mehendi Hai Rachnewali
Music: A.R Rahman
Singers: Alka Yagnik
Lyrics: Anand Bakshi
‘Mehndi Hai Rachnewaali, Haathon Mein Gehri Laali’, what a sweet melody. This song is still one of the most well-loved wedding songs from the 2001 film ‘Zubeidaa’ directed by Shyam Benegal and written by Khalid Mohammed. The movie is based on the life of Zubeidaa Begum, an actress who married Maharaja Hanwant Singh of Jodhpur. A.R Rahman’s soul-stirring composition and Alka Yagnik’s saccharine voice deserve huge appreciation. This sweet melody seems to be coated with honey and sugar and you are surely going to love it.
