Top 10 Hindi Songs: August 2013

Top 10 Bollywood Songs of August 2013

1. Lungi Dance (Chennai Express): Yo Yo Honey Singh is the flavour of the season. His rap rocked big time in movies like Cocktail, Son Of Sardar and Khiladi 786. But this time he has not only rapped but composed and sung the most popular song of the biggest hit of 2013 so far. Lungi Dance is rocking the charts everywhere with its unique lyrics like ‘Ghar mei jaake tum google karlo, mere baare mei wikipedia pe padhlo’.

2. Tum Hi Ho (Aashiqui 2): Undoubtedly, ‘Tum Hi Ho’ is the best song of 2013 till now. Expectations will be sky-high from the next projects of Mithoon with Bhatts as their combo has yeilded golden results in ‘Murder 2’ and now ‘Aashiqui 2’. Just like ‘Aashiqui’ (1990), the sequel will also be remembered ever for its soulful music.

3. Titli (Chennai Express): Chennai Express has exceeded all the expectations and is well on course to become the biggest Bollywood grosser ever. King Khan is ruling the charts all over again with this romantic track. This is 4th consecutive hit and second blockbuster in a row for Deepika Padukone.

4. Zinda (Bhaag Milkha Bhaag): The choosy music director trio of Ehsaan, Shankar and Loy have composed for all the movies starring or directed by Farhan Akhtar. ‘Zinda’ track boasts of some innovative motivational lyrics penned by super talented Prasoon Joshi. Shankar’s son Siddharth has filled passion and energy in the song with his vocals. The success of the movie has raised the popularity of the music further.

5. Ye Tune Kya Kiya (Once upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara): Pritam is enjoying a great year with ‘Race 2′ and blockbuster’Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’. OUATIMD’s music album will evetually face the consequence of the below expected movie’s performance. Sung beautifully by Pakistani singer Javed Bashir, ‘Ye Tune Kya Kiya’ grows on the listener on repeated hearings. Dialog writer Rajat Arora has penned some extraordinary lyrics for this song picturized on Akshay Kumar.

6. Tum Tak (Raanjhanaa): A.R.Rahman’s music seldom goes unnoticed. Since the film has become a hit, ‘Raanjhanaa’ music album has gained more popularity in the charts. A song with a blend of romantic and spiritual elements, ‘Tum Tak’ has been beautifully crooned by Javed Ali. Irshad Kamil has excelled big time in the lyrics department.

7. Badtameez (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani): Although ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ might have moved down the charts due to huge inflow of big movies this month, it remains the second best musical album of 2013 after ‘Aashiqui2’. Pritam has rocked the charts with Race 2 and YJHD and can enter again next month with ‘Phata Poster Nikla Hero’. But the icing on the cake is ‘Dhoom 3’ towards the end of the year.

8. Sawaar Loon (Lootera): Balaji is definitely facing a tough time as a production house. ‘Lootera’ was much appreciated but failed to set the cash registers ringing at the box-office. Amit Trivedi’s music especially ‘Sawaar Loon’ is getting universal popularity. Song features a great combination of meaningful lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya, mesmerizing vocals by Monali Thakur.

9. Jeene Laga Hoon (Ramaiya Vastavaiya): The box-office success of a movie is directly propotional to the success of its music album as well. This track beautifully sung by Atif and Shreya was gaining popularity but has slowed down due to film’s below average performance at the ticket window. Sachin-Jigar is a promising talent to watch out for in future.

10. Sun Raha Hai (Aashiqui 2): Even though ‘Sun Raha Hai’ will probably not be there in next list, it will remain one of the most loved songs of the year. The magical track is sung by Ankit Tiwary and written by Sandeep Nath. Female version is more of an unplugged kind highlighting the sweetness of Shreya’s deep soothing vocals.

  • Lungi Dance no 1.?? all C.E songs are better than lungi dance……Raanjhanna, YJHD and other songs of C.E deserve a fair justice

  • happy to see that chennai express song is in number 1 position. I thought that tum hi ho song will remain number at 1 position till this year end. But record express really surprising me. It’s rocking everywhere.

  • Top 10 songs for me dis year

    1. Tum hi ho : Easily the best song of the year
    2. Sun raha hai : those who watched the movie will know why I placed this song on second spot
    3. Dilli wali girl friend : initially I didn’t liked the song but once I watched the video I became crazy over this song
    4. Lat lag gayee : didn’t got tired of this song yet
    5. Titli : I like female playback singers voice’ and after watching the movie I started liking the song even more
    6. Maston ka jund ( BMB) : technically best song of the year and I like the energy in the song
    7. Lungi dance : sharukh khan is awesome in this song
    8. Saadi galli aaja : this song is similar to pani da rang may be that’s why I like the song very much
    9. Zinda : another energetic song and this song really gives a goose bumbs while watching the movie
    10. Balam pichkari : the second best song in YJHD album and l like the starting of the song when it says ” itna maza q aa raha hai” love that part

  • Aashiqi 2 has evergreen songs…
    Chennai xpress izz rocking d charts but i dont think it wil continue 2 sustain long
    Yjhd wazz a bigger hit bcoz of itz blockbuster music…!!

  • If at all Krish 3 songs would be the only film that has any hope of displacing Aashiqui 2 songs. Rakesh – Rajesh – Hrithik combination have given superhit music in the history. I’m waiting for its music.

  • All great songs. However, I’d place ‘Jeene Laga Hoon’ over ‘Tum Tak’. ‘Rang Jo Lagyo’ is also a good track from the same album. Unsurprisingly, both of them are sung by Atif Aslam.

  • It’s a biased list.lungi dance is ahead of tum hi ho? ? ?
    I can never agree with the list. .
    My list is
    1.tum hi ho
    2.sun raha hai na tu
    3.badtameez dil
    4.luni dance(got popular,but after 1 year,every1 will forget it)
    5.jeene laga hoon
    6.kashmir main tu
    7.titli
    8.balam pichkari
    9.yeh tune kya kiya
    10.chahun mein ya na

    sawar loon and tum tak have no demands in augest. .

  • 1 LAT LAG GAYI
    2 BADTAMEEZ DIL
    3 LUNGI DANCE
    4 CHENNAI EXP TITLE SONG
    5 TUM HI HO (LYRICS IS NOT THAT GREAT AND SLOW SONG)
    THIS YEAR, TILL NOW

  • @anupama:exactly,rajesh can displace ashiqi 2 music as he makes such nice songs like zindagi do pal ki,dil kyun yeh mera,ao sunau pyar ki ek kahani etc.
    @romance express:yes,it has 3 songs and each will be 3 chartbusters.and k3 will be huge. .haters may dream badly,we don’t care. .:p

  • Wow I love the lungi dance song very much its awesome honey Singh written compose and sang very beautifully and Shahrukh khan is awesome in lungi dance super rocking song.

  • Don’t agree..what’s this stupid list!!!! u ppl only rank them according to selling!!!!!!! exactly like box office.. what makes money so that’s good for you!!!!!!!!!

    best songs of the year – till this month are:

    1) Tum hi Ho
    2) Sunn Raha hai
    3) Yeh Tuni Kiya Kya
    4) Sawaar Loo
    5) Ranjhaana ( title track)
    6) Batameez dil
    7) Kashmiir me tu kaniya kumari ( from chennai express)
    8) Maston ka jund ( Bhaag Milka Bhaag)
    9) Tum Tak
    10) Gene Laga Hoon

    What’s so good about Loongi dance, Zinda, Titli.. not that great to be in the top ten.. they’re some not bad songs.. but not the best with lyrics and melodies
