Music is undoubtedly one of the best things to have happened to mankind and Bollywood only further contributed to this wonderful creation! Bollywood films and songs go hand in hand, you just can't imagine one without the other. So much so that my first memory of Bollywood is that of a song and not of a film! While good songs are those that act as a remedy for your soul, better songs are the ones that are a treat to the senses as well.
Here are 19 such Bollywood songs from the past decade that are simply timeless and can be watched on loop all day long.
1. We had heard of dropping beats but this one made a towel drop the new in thing! Not much was left to our imagination and of course this isn't the only SLB song on the list, for obvious reasons!
2. This one took us back to the Mughal era and the larger than life visuals are simply majestic. Hit us right in the feels! Besides that, Ashutosh Gowariker and Hrithik Roshan made for a deadly combination indeed.
