There have been some brilliant duets in hindi films, which have been in our memories for long b'coz of the way they were sung, in perfect sync, cordination by the singers, when two voices gel and compliment each other in a way that the person who is listening is completely mesmerized and the effect is something magical.FOR ME MAGICAL was the voice and singing of 'ASHA BHOSLE-MOHD-RAFI, KISHORE KUMAR-ASHA BHOSLE, MOHD RAFI-LATA MANGESHKAR, SONU-NIGAM-SHREYA GHOSAL, JAGJIT SINGH-CHITRA SINGH'.when they sang together.I feel ten best BOLLYWOOD DUETS.is difficult to pick, coz there are so many.but still I have tried to pick a few of my favourite duets, which I simply love and enjoy listening to.
MY TEN BEST BOLLYWOOD DUETS ARE.(in no order of preferance),
*ABHI NA JAYO CHOD KE
KE DIL ABHI BHARA NAHI*
This song from'HUM DONO' has to be one of my all time favourite song, the lyrics are so romantic.the tune is melodious and the way it has been rendered by MOHD-RAFI and ASHA BHOSLE is just incomparable, the mood and effect of the song reflects in their voice and rendition.And this song was dome complete justice by DEV ANAND-SADHANA.on-screen, a real gem.
*DHALTI JAYA RAAT, KEHLE DIL KI BAAT
SHAAMA PARWANE KA NE HOGA PHIR SAATH*
.this one is a haunting song from the a old film 'RAZIA SULTAN'.Its just unbeleivable the way MOHD-RAFI-ASHA BHOSLE have sung this song, the control that they both have on their voice.and the co-ordination is just perfect, one of the best duets of BOLLYWOOD, IMO.
*AAP YUHI AGAR HUMSE MILTE RAHE
DEKHIYE EK DIN PYAR HO JAYAGA*
.one of the most beautiful song I have heard, just because of the way it has been composed by OP NAYYAR and sung by ASHA BHOSLE-MOHD-RAFI, the effect is nothing short of magical.
*JANE KAHA MERA JIGAR GAYE JI
ABHI ABHI YAHI THA, KIDHAR GAYE JI*
.i simply love this song from'MR AND MRS 55', it's so cute and fun-filled.there is a certain amount of naughtiness and innocence in the way it has been written and rendered by GEETA DUTT-MOHD-RAFI.this one is a one of its kind song, hence I picked it.
*TERE BINDIYA RE, HAI HAI TERI BINDIYA RE,
SAAJAN BINDIYA LE LEGI TERI NINDIYA RE*
This MOHD RAFI-LATA MANGESHKAR duet from the film'ABHIMAAN' is a gem of a song, again the perfection with which the two have sung this song.the feelings, it conveys, is really beautiful.
*JAANE JA DHHONDTA PHIR RAHA
TUJHE RAAT DIN, MAIN YAHN SE WAHAN*
.i think KISHORE KUMAR-ASHA BHOSLE have lifted this song FROM'JAWANI DIWANI' to some othe heights by the sheer mgic of their singing.When you listen to this song you just feel the co-ordination between the singers, the high pitching and range is just perfect.a great choice of singers by RDB for this song.
*PHIR CHIDDI RAAT, RAAT PHOOLON KI,
RAAT HAI, YA BAARAT PHOOLON KI.*
.what a song!Its just divine.it just moves you to a different world all together, the way it has been composed by'KHAYAAM' and sung by LATA-MANGESHKAR-TALAT AZIZ, IS just beautiful.It is one of my most favourite duet song ever.from the film'BAZAAR'.
*YE TERA GHAR, YE MERA GHAR
KISSI KO DEKHNA HO GAR, TU PHLE AA KE MAANG LE TERI NAZAR, MERI NAZAR**.
.another beautiful duet from'SAATH SAATH', sung by ghazal maestro JAGJIT SINGH and his wife CHITRA SINGH, there is so much smoothness in JAGJIT SINGH's voice, it just flows.and CHITRA's voice compliments his voice well, really a great song
*PEHLA NASHA, PEHLA KHUMAR
NAYA PYAR HAI, NAYA INTEHAN.*
.this one is an eternal favourite of the people from the film'JO JEETA WOHI SIKANDAR'.One of'JATIN-LALIT's' best compositions, very original, very soothing and very romantic.UDIT NARAYAN-SADHNA SARGAM, have sung it brilliantly, hence it is one of my favourite bollywood duet.I esp love the way this song begins.'CHAAHE TUM KUCH NA KAHO, MAINE SUN LIYA'.
*MADHUBAN MAIN JO KANHIYAAN, KISSI GOPI SE MILE
KABHI SHAARMAIN KABHICHEDE, KABHI BAAT KARE,
RAADHA KAISE NA JALE*
.i simply love this song from'LAGAAN', and my list would not have been in complete without the mention of this song, its just brilliant.This one is a classical number, the way it has been composed, written and sung by ASHA BHOSLE-UDIT NARAYAN.is a treat to the ear.The bhaav, mischief that has been brought into the singing of the two is really good.
This completes my list of ten best BOLLYWOOD DUETS, its just very difficult to pick just ten.coz there are so many, but these are the songs closest to my heart hence I picked them, hopw you'll like it.
