We don’t wait for summers or winters, the way we wait for monsoons. Isn’t it? We anxiously wait for the rain to pour from the skies. Especially, in the rain scanty areas, rain appears like confetti pouring from the skies. People have their own ways of enjoying the rain. Some prefer staying at home with a cup of coffee and a good book, whereas others might love dancing their heart out in the rains, or make paper boats swim in the puddles.
You can let us know your style of enjoying the rain, but first, let us read about these dreamy classic Bollywood Monsoon numbers.
