Best Bollywood Songs of 2018

2018 was an average year for fresh bollywood music as a lot of music directors relied on reviving/ remixing old hits to sell their albums. But, of all the craze and madness which ruled the radio stations through the year, there were a few songs which were melodious and soulful.

Below are the highlights of bollywood music for 2018:
  • Almost all big music directors roped in Arijit Singh to sing at least one song in each of their music albums, and he continues to do a splendid job on each of his renditions.
  • Atif Aslam made a comeback with many of his songs ruling the charts through the year.
  • We also had Ajay-Atul bless Bollywood with their genre of music in Dhadak and Zero.
  • Amit Trivedi kept his brand of music alive in Pad Man, Manmarziyaan and Andhadhun. Although, there were many other albums where he did not impress as much.
Top Bollywood Albums for 2018: Dhadak, Raazi, Manmarziyaan, Padmaavat, Andhadhun

My Favourite Ghazals #1 - Dil Dhadakne Ka Sabab

This is a gem written by the famous Urdu poet Nasir Qazmi and has been since performed by many legendary singers including Ghulam Ali, Noor Jehan, Asha Bhonsle and Jagjit Singh. Check out their individual renditions below: Ghulam Ali version Noor Jehan version Asha Bhosle version Jagjit Singh version Lyrics: दिल धड़कने का सबब याद आया वो तेरी याद थी अब याद आया आज मुश्किल था सम्भलना ऐ दोस्त तू मुसीबत में अजब याद आया दिन ग़ुज़ारा था बड़ी मुश्किल से फिर तेरा वादा-ए-शब याद आया तेरा भूला हुआ पैमान-ए-वफ़ा मर रहेंगे अगर अब याद आया फिर कई लोग नज़र से गुज़रे फिर कोई शहर-ए-तरब याद आया हाल-ए-दिल हम भी सुनाते लेकिन जब वो रुख़सत हुए तब याद आया बैठ कर साया-ए-गुल में 'नासिर' हम बहुत रोए वो जब याद आया
