Festival Special: This Janmashtami sing along with Bollywood

August 13th, 2009

To sing in joy and remember God on important devotional occasions has been a part of our films since ages. Lord Krishna's birth marks the festival of Janmashtami or Gokulashtami in India. And if we peep into the past we will discover the strangest thing- although the festival is not touched upon by many filmmakers, but the essence of songs featured on super-stars earlier are still fresh in the memories of Indians. Janmashtami or Gokulashtami is around the corner; so here we are enlisting the famous ever-green songs, which showcase the fondness of B-Town for the festival of Janmashtami.

Govinda Aala Re Aala Re: The song featured on the super stars of different eras makes it more special. The super-energetic Shammi Kapoor in Bluffmaster and mind-boggling Sanjay Dutt in Vaastav breaking 'dahi handi' in the respective songs, are etched in the memories of many avid film-goers. The eternal music has come a long way since Bluffmaster days and Vaastav rejuvenated the essence of the song giving it a new dimension.

Yashomati Mayya Se Bole Nandlala: Sensuous yet graceful Zeenat Aman in Satyam Shivam Sundaram lip synching to the voice of nightingale Lata Mangeshkar brings life to this beautiful song, especially on the occasion of Janmashtami. Boiled down to the list of bhajans, this song can be heard in all the auspicious places where people sing-along to the tunes and lyrics of the ever-beautiful song.

Main Nahi Makhan Khayo: This beautiful narration of Lord Krishna proving his innocence to his mother- he did not steal butter (makhan) by Anup Jalota, mesmerizes many hearts even today. Not many know that this song has been featured in a Bollywood flick named Bhajan Sandhya.

Jeetega wahi jisme hai dum: Again this song picturised on Ajay Devgan in the film titled Sangram did not have larger audiences to hear it out. However, the song featuring a sort of competition among the boys– as to who will break the 'dahi handi' is worth a watch.

Chandi Ki Daal Par Sone Ka More: Last but definitely not the least, is the peppy number from Salman-Rani starrer Hello Brother. 'Chandi Ki Daal Par Sone Ka More', still gets one to step into their dancing shoes, and groove to go on and break the Handi yet again this year.

On that note, we wish everyone a happy and auspicious Janmashtami.
