Rahman and makes the song his own rather than Rahman’s. Interestingly, it is the only Non Khan song in the list.Ħ) Mitwa: I cannot imagine any voice apart from Udit’s which can dominate the music of A.R.

This song is only mentionable because of Narayan’s vocals and nothing else as they are out of the world. A special art of quality voice modulation has made this song a pure gem.ĥ) Ghar Se Nikalte Hi: The beginning of this song when Udit starts humming connects you with it and the impact keeps on growing as the track progresses. This ever so romantic song becomes even more infectious with Udit’s mesmerizingly somber vocals as they suited SRK’s on screen persona to the T. The enthusiasm and freshness in Udit’s voice has remained the same since 1988.Ĥ) Main Yahaan Hoon: Magic! Sheer magic! Late Yash Chopra used Late Madan Mohan’s classic melodies for his epic musical lova saga ‘Veer Zaara’.


When I first saw the movie, I got an impression that it’s Aamir only who has lent his voice to all the songs. Narayan gave his heart to this Anand-Milind melody as he sounds completely raw in his first hit album. Song has superb recall value even after two decades.ģ) Aye Mere Humsafar: ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak’ gave not 1 but 4 star artists to Bollywood – Aamir Khan, Juhi Chawla, Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik. Narayan’s remarkable varying tones builds a castle of love and seeps well in mellowed softer arrangements. Their superb combined effort brings in the feel of obsessive love on screen. Udit sang as if he was born to sing this song from ‘Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikandar’.Ģ) Jaadu Teri Nazar: Udit is in his complete elements in this track from ‘Darr’ composed by Shiv-Hari and written by Anand Bakshi. The track, penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri, was shot in complete show motion and has now become a cult song.

This Jatin-Lalit melody grabs attention instantly and sounds even better after these many years. Without much ado, let’s start with the list of 10 best songs of arguably the most successful singer of the 90s and 2000s.ġ) Pehla Nasha: Nostalgic! In one of the most romantic songs ever, Udit has rendered soulful and emotive base vocals. Much like few select legendary singers from the past, the best quality of Udit is that he has learned to impersonate the on-screen actor’s voice so perfectly that it seems like the actor is actually singing (special mention Aamir Khan). The King of Bollywood playback singing has sung all kinds of songs and has collaborated successfully with each and every prominent music composer or singer. It would not be wrong to state that Udit Narayan has dominated the male playback singing for the last 2 decades or so.
