Best Romantic Song

best romantic songs

While today’s generation rocks to the tunes of Arijit Singh and Atif Aslam and sings along to tunes such as  “bekhayaali” and “brown munde”,

The older generations continue to argue with the same argument that compositions of the modern era despite all the technological advancements cannot match up to the ever-gold tunes of the yester-years, often dubbed as the “Golden Era”.

Especially when it comes to tunes to express one’s love for their romantic interest, people even of this generation prefer tunes such as “Lag ja gale” and “Pyaar hua, Iqrar Hua” to tunes such as “main hu hero tera”.

Old Bollywood tunes have a certain sense of nostalgia, class and legacy along with original and meaningful lyrics which make them relevant even today after some four or five decades since they were released.

For those who wish to be teleported back into the golden era, here are a few of your beloved classical love songs of Bollywood from the yesteryears.
