'Barso re' rules Bollywood music charts
- ians
Several new albums have hit the stands but not a single one seems good enough to dethrone A.R. Rahman's "Barso re" from the top slot.
The top 10 Hindi film songs for the week are:
1. "Barso re"
Film: "Guru"; Music Director: A.R. Rahman; Singer: Shreya Ghoshal
The hugely popular song about welcoming the rains and featuring Aishwarya Rai once again retains its premier position this week.
2. "Aafreen tera chehra"
Film: "Red"; Music Director: Himesh Reshammiya; Singer: Himesh Reshammiya
A love song with a dollop of passion and craziness is ruling the music charts despite the film failing to create ripples at the box office.
3. "Maula mere"
Film: "Anwar"; Music Director: Mithoon; Singer: Roop Kumar Rathod
The Sufi number laced with romance is moving up and down on the list.
4. "Crazy kiya re"
Film: "Dhoom 2"; Music Director: Pritam; Singer: Sunidhi Chauhan
This is another Aishwarya song on the list. The fast number sets your foot tapping and is a visual treat as well.
5. "Salaam-e-Ishq"
Film: "Salaam-e-Ishq"; Music Director: Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy; Singers: Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal, Kunal Ganjawala, Sadhana Sargam and Shankar Mahadevan
Lavishly shot in true Yash Chopra style, the song has slipped down on the list.
6. "Aayo ri sakhi"
Film: "Water"; Music Director: A.R. Rahman; Singer: Sukhwinder Singh
A semi-classical song shows singer Sukhwinder's versatility and gels with the mood of the film.
7. "Aaj ki raat"
Film: "Don"; Music Director: Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy; Singers: Alisha Chinoy, Mahalakshmi Iyer, Sonu Nigam
A well-picturised song, "Aaj ki raat" boasts of style and creativity.
8 "Sajani vaari"
Film: "Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd"; Music: Vishal-Shekhar; Singers: Sunidhi Chauhan and Shekhar Ravjiani
It's a great track with a folk touch. Sunidhi is at her best in the song that has an amazing dance vibe.
9. "Rozana"
Film: "Nishabd"; Music Director: Vishal Bharadwaj; Singer: Amitabh Bachchan
"Rozana" can be termed as an awesomely romantic and sensuous number.
10. "Saiyaan re"
Film: "Salaam-e-Ishq"; Music Director: Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy; Singers: Shilpa, Shankar Mahadevan, Loy Mendonsa
A fusion of Indo-Western music, the song with a qawalli touch is a treat to watch.
