Daler Mehndi has given us music numbers that are some of the best party starters we ever heard and this is an ode to them.
Who can forget the gatherings of the 90s and 00s when there was this one person who can get anyone on the dance floor, especially in any Punjabi gathering. The person I’m talking about is Daler Mehndi who has given us some of the finest and most upbeat music to ever dance on.
Everyone would admit to still be familiar with the hook step of every one of his song, and why shouldn’t we be? They were absolute life and dance goals. If you knew the entire routine of Daler Mehndi song then you’re a gem of your family, as per other people.
Now, as we move on to much more electronic times of music there’s something missing from Indian music and a huge part of it is Daler Mehndi’s old numbers. He still does a lot of work in Bollywood and regional cinema, however, it’s been quite some time since we got something as smacking as ‘Tunak Tunak Tun’.
So, here are 10 of the best songs by Daler Mehndi that can literally get any party started, and keep it going.
1. Bolo Ta Ra Ra
2. Tunak Tunak Tun
3. Ho Jayegi Balle Balle
4. Na Na Na Re
5. Dardi Rab Rab Kardi
6. Kudiyan Sehar Diyan
7. Saade Dil Te Chhuriyan Chaliyan
8. Sajan Mere Satrangiya
9. Dil Mera Nal
10. Rang De Basanti
