I really like your topic. Got me thinking and revisiting some of my favourites.
Also, I realised that most of my favourites seem to be song videos rather than actual dialogue because I find a lot of the dialogue in Indian cinema either too melodramatic, sappy or one that attempts to be inspirational, though there are some exceptions of course):
The simplicity of a couple sitting by the river at the wake of dawn.. feeling sad that they'll part soon. The silence, the stillness, their innocence. And the lyrics/song.

This scene. The raw passion/intensity with which Shahrukh stares into Manisha's eyes without even touching her. That gaze, the intimacy. I don't think he managed to recreate that kind of chemistry with anyone else. Great cinematography, dialogue, acting, and location. Easily one of the most well written romantic scenes I've seen in BW.
