Gorgeous Bollywood musical numbers courtesy of youtube, Part I

[dangermousie]

One of my reasons for loving the Indian film industry known as Bollywood is the incredible music and musical numbers in their movies. And guess what? I discovered so many of them on youtube. So to share the wealth and maybe to interest people in checking some out, I bring you some of my finds

I love that all the of the movies (save for Parineeta) are SRK!starrers and some of my favorite Bollywood movies. :)

Have you seen Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna? "Suraj Hua Maddham" is was my favorite song picturization until I saw "Tumhi Dekho Naa" from KANK. And then I was like, "Ohmigod. *dies of the beauty of SRK and Rani*" ;) Oh and "Crazy Kiya Re" is currently like my favorite Bollywood song, period. ;)

Well, there are also D2 and Fanaa but yeah, most of these are SRK. The funny thing is I didn't do it on purpose. I randomly kept looking for my fave numbers and I looked at the list once I finished and most of them were his ;)

Crazy Kiya Re is addictive. It's stuck in my head like an earworm.

Re: KANK song. I love it, but I love SHM better. In part because I prefer Kajol to Rani. But yay for another KANK lover. That movie doesn't get enough love.

LOL The title song from K3G has German subs ... :)
Even though Ash is an incredible dancer I simply can't stand her. Even more so than Preity, though she is NOT a good dancer at all.

I like Aish on and off. Some movies I really like her in (D2 is one of those mainly because she has this incredible chemistry with Hrithik. Haven't seen anything like this since Salman and SRK days), some she walks through as this really pretty plastic doll. I like Preity too, though. My personal nightmare is what if one day SRK decides to costar with Esha Deol! I can't see him losing his mind to such an extent but you never know and I will be forced to sit through an Esha movie.

love love love all your selections except the D2 ones:D)!
YLHA is the song that made me set up, look , and pay attention to the man in the gorgeous traditional Indian clothes and the floppy hair, it will always be my favorite because I fell in love with the babe :D
- after that comes the two songs from VZ, i remember watching MYH for the first time, I literally stopped breathing, the song sizzles!, then YHGK, although I totally understood why it had to be removed from the film, but SRK never looked this hot and sexy, the part where he is wearing the white T-shirt makes my heart race every.single.time.
-TDN also is sweetness and beauty and love!!
- All the songs in Dil Se are a testament on the greatness that BW can reach, from Chaiyya Chaiyya, to Satrange Re, to Dil Se Re to my favorite( ecept for Priety Zinta dancing) Jiya Jale( I mean seriously...what could be more sexy than topless SRK around the elephants?:D)
-Asoka songs make me cry from the sheer beauty of them.
- I also have to add Khaike Paan from Don(2006)

YLHA is wonderful, isn't it? K3G wasn't my first or even my second SRK movie, but when he came on screen during that song, all I could do was imitate Kajol and do a double take. He looks so amazing in traditional clothes. And I love the joyful way he dances.

Oh, VZ. I love that movie so much. MYH is one of the most romantic picturizations ever, IMO. It's impossible for me to tear my eyes off the screen during it. And I think YHGK is amazing. I agree with you, I can see why they took it out, but it's one of the most romantic, swoony, gorgeous songs ever and he's never looked hotter. I think VZ was his last bona fide epic romance (at least for the time being though hopefully not forever, no one romances like SRK), but even if it turns out to be the last, what a way to go out of the genre!

-TDN also is sweetness and beauty and love!!Oh yes. MHN was my first SRK movie in the theater and I remember wanting to look away from how incredibly hot he and the number were on the big screen

[fivil]

I pretty much love all of these! Mere Haath Mein hands down the prettiest picturization of 2006. Yeh Ladki Hai Allah, on the other hand, is to me the prettiest and most fun-to-watch SRK/Kajol picturization (I also love DDLJ songs but K3G looks better).

I rewatched Dhoom 2 a few days back and oh.my.god. There should be a rule Hrithik should always dance shirtless from now on. I think he's about the only actor who can pull it off and look absolutely amazing doing it. That man was just born to move, dammit.

[dangermousie]

MHM is really incredible. It's the only song that came close to SHM-gorgeousness-level-wise.

I don't know what my fave to watch SRK/Kadz picturization is. SHM probably because I like the hot angsty numbers. But YLHA is so contegeously fun. K3G had the best music (except for You are my Sonia where...pleather).

My D2 DVD is not here yet and I think I will gnaw off my arm waiting for it. I never thought anyone could look good dancing shirtless (well, Salman looked yummy in Oh Jaane Jaana in his movie with Kajol, but not this pure level of 'I am going to die of the hotness') Ahhh, the choreographer and his stroke of genius, I will love it forever.

Hrithik always amazes me. He is tall. And very buff. So the way he can move is just incredible because you'd think he wouldn't be able to be this fluid.

I love all your choices and they are all among my favourites as well (except for the Dhoom 2 ones, since I haven't yet seen the film :)).

Roshni Se is my favourite song picturisation ever.

[dangermousie]

You totally have to watch D2. It's delicious.

And I love Roshni Se. Asoka as a whole kills me, and Roshni Se is probably the best scene in it...
