Ashaji is an amazing singer. She can be amazingly seductive, amazingly innocent, amazingly sweet! Outlining 20 best songs is impossible so am outlining just 20 of my many favourites!
The following
are in no order -
raat akeli hai......bujh gaye diye......
aakar mere paas.....kaanon mein mere....
jo bhi chahe kahiye....jo bhi chahe kahiye.....This seductively enchanting song is from the film
Jewel Thief. Ashaji sings it seductively and calmly. The high leap in jo bhi chahe kahiye is achieved by only a few!
jawani jaaneman.....haseen dil ruba.....
mile jo dil jawaan....nisaar ho gaya.....A nicely paced rocking song from the film
Namak Halaal. This song always makes me tap my feet. A great number by Ashaji.
o mere sona re....sona re....sona re.....
dedungi jaan.....juda mat ho na re....
maine tujhe badi der se jaana....
hua kasoor.....khafa mat hona re.....A roothna-manana song from the film
Teesri Manzil. One to sing to your loved one when he’s angry. Ashaji does it to perfection!
ik pardesi mera dil legaya...jate jate mitha mita gham de gaya
jane anjane use pat na chala....moti moti akhiyo me ansu de gaya....A great song from
Phagun, sung wonderfully by Ashaji.
ajnabhi mujhko itna bata....dil mera kyu pareshaan hai....
dekhkar tujko aisa lage....jaise barson ki pehchaan hai...From a more modern number, this is from
Pyar To Hona Hi Tha. A great song which has the whole ’’Bollywood’’ feel in it! Ashaji in modern years still rocks!
pyar karne wala.....pyar karte hai shaan se....
jeete hai shaan se....marte hai shaan se....Another typical Ashaji song which is rocking, from the film
Shaan. It has a great sultry tone goin for it which plunges deep into the minor notes!
jaanejaan...dhoondta fir raha.....jo tumhe....
raat din....mein yahan....se waha.....Dueting with Kishoreji, Ashaji sounds great in this number from
Jawani Diwani. It shows the width and depth of her voice!
kaun aya....ki nigahon mein chamak jaag uthi....
dil ke soye hue taaron mein khanak jaag uthi.....A beautiful number from the film
Waqt. I was having difficulty choosing between this one and Aage bhi jaane na tu. It had to be this one in the end because of the joyous tone Ashaji has sung it in.
yeh mera dil....pyar ka diwana.....
diwana diwana....pyar ka parwana....Another beautiful sultry number from Ashaji, this time from the film
Don!
jhumka gira re....bareli ki baazaar mein....

ye ladka haye allah....kaisa hai diwana....
kitna mushkil hai dekho....isko samjhana...A sweet song from the film
Hum Kisise Kam Nahin. I particularly like the way Ashaji sings the verses. I dont think any singer could have given it the lift she has

Caravan. Ashaji gives it so much energy, so much life.....an amazing song!
