Aane wala pal jane wala hai
Aao na gale lagalo na
Aap ke kamre mein koi rehta hai
Aise na mujhe tum dekho
Apki ankhon me kuchh
Apne Pyar Ke Sapne
Bade Achhe lagte hai
Bahon me chale aao
Bahut door mujhe chale jana hai
Bechara dil kya kare
Bhigi bhigi rato me
Chehra hai ya chand khila
Chingari koyi bhadake
Chura liya hai tumne jo
Dekha Na Haay Re
Dil ne kaha chupke se
Do Lafzon Ki Hai
Doli me bithai ke kahar
Ek Ajnabi Haseena Se
Ek Ladki ko dekha to
Ghar Aja Ghir Ayi
Ghar jayegi tar jayegi
Gulabi ankhen jo teri dekhi
Gum hai kisi ke pyar me
Hame tumse pyaar kitna
Hum Bewafa Hargeez Na The
Hum dono do premi
Jaane ja dhundhta fir raha
Jaane Kya Baat Hai
Jai jai shiv shankar
Jane do na, Paas aao na
Jeewan ke din chhote sahi
Jete Dao Amay Deko Na
Jis Gali Mein Tera Ghar Na Ho Baalma
Kahin Karti Hogi
Kahin Na Ja, Aj Kahin Mat Ja
Kehna hai, Kehna hai
Kiska rasta dekhe
Kuchh Na Kaho, Kuchh Bhi Na Kaho
Kya yehi pyar hai
Kya Hua Tera Wada
Mai shayar badnam
Mere naina sawan bhadon
Meri bhigi bhigi si
Musafir Hu Yaro
Muthukodi Kawadi Hada
Nadiya se Dariya
Nahi Nahi Abhi Nahi
O hansini
Ab To Hai Tumse
Achha ji main haari
Choodi nahi ye mera
Dil Aaj Shayar Hai
Dil Pukare Aare Aare Aare
Din dhal jaye
Doli me bithai ke kahar
Hai apna dil to awara
Hum Apki Ankhon Me Is Dil Ko Basa De To
Jaaye To Jaaye Kahan
Jane Woh Kaise Log The
Jogi Jab Se tu Aya Mere Dware
Kahe Ko roye (Banegi Asha Teri)
Khoya Khoya Chand Khula Aasman
Kora Kagaz Tha Yeh Mann Mera
Megha chhaye aadhi raat
Na tum hame jano
O Re Majhi (Mere Sajan Hai Us Par)
Piya to se naina lage re
Roop tera mastana
Tere mere milan ki ye raina
Tere Mere Sapne Ab
Waqt ne kiya
Ye dil Diwana hai
Ye raat ye chandni fir kahan
Aa jane ja
Baar baar din ye aye (happy birthday)
Bhor bhaye panghat pe
Ek pyar ka nagma hai
Har karam apna karenge (Aye watan tere liye)
Ik na ik din ye kahani banegi
Jane chale jate hai kahan
Jane kyu log mohabbat kiya karte ha
Jot se jot jalate chalo
Lambi Judaai
Maika Piya Bulave
Man kyon behka ri behka
Mere deewanepan ki bhi
Mere dil me aj kya hai
Mere mehboob qayamat hogi
Na Ja Kahin Ab Na Ja
Patta Patta Buta Buta
Satyam Shivam Sundaram
Sawan ka mahina
So gaya ye jahan
Solah baras ki bali umar ko salam
Suraj re jaltre rehna (Jagat bhar ki roshni ke liye)
Wada tera wada
Woh Hai Zara Khafa Khafa
Ye Jeevan Hai
Aur is dil me kya rakha hai
Chand si mehbooba ho
Chandan sa badan
Dil ko dekho chehra na dekho
Dil lootne wale jadugar
Hai Preet Jaha Ki Reet Sada
Kasme vade pyar wafa sab
Koi Jab Tumhara Hriday Tod De…
Laila main laila
Neele Neele Ambar Par
O saathi re
Pal pal dil ke paas
Zindagi Ka Safar
Aaja sanam madhur chandni mein hum
Aawara hoon
Ajeeb Dastaan Hai Ye
Awaz de kaha hai
Awaz deke hame tum bulao
Chhoti si ye zindgani re
Ehsaan Tera Hoga Mujh Par
Ghar Aaya Mera Pardesi
Gumnam hai koi
Itni Haseen Itni Jawa Raat Kya Kare…
Jane Kahan Gaye Wo Din
Jaun kahan bata aye dil
Jeena Yahan Merna Yahan
Jhanak Jhanak Tori Baje Payaliya
Kaun hai jo sapno me aya
Mai Piya Teri Tu Mane Ya Na Mane
Rasik Balma
Sau Saal Pehle Mujhe Tumse Pyar Tha…
Tera Mera Pyar Amar
Tumhen yaad karte karte
Abhi naa jao chhod kar
Seene me jalan
Tumhe dekhti hu…
Tumhe ho na ho
Tumhe ho na ho mujhko to
Ye dil aur unki nigahon ke saye
Chalo ik bar fir se
Darshan Do Ghanshyam Nath
Itni Haseen Itni Jawa Raat Kya Kare…
Kisi Patthar Ki Murat Se
Neele Gagan Ke Tale
Tujhe Suraj Kahu ya Chanda
Tujhko rakkhe ram
Tumhari Nazar Kyu Khafa Ho Gai
Ye raatein ye mausam ye nadi ka kinara
Chhoo kar mere man ko
Chhupa Lo yun Dil me
Haste Haste Kat Jaye Raste
Jab koi baat bigad jaaye
Ka Karu Sajni Aye na baalam
Kaha tak ye man ko
Kya mausam hai (Chal kahin door nikal jaye)
Man re tu kahe na dhir dhare
My heart is beating
Oh Re Taal Mile
Pardesiya ye sach hai piya
Tere Jaisa Yaar Kahan
Ik hasee shaam ko
Lag Ja Gale
Mai ye soch kar uske dar se
Naina Barse Rim jhim Rim jhim
Naino me badra chhaye
Sapne me sajan se do batein
Tere liye
Tumse kahoon ek baat paron se halki halki
Aap ke haseen rukh pe
Babuji dheere chalna
Chain se humko kabhi
Hai duniya usiki
Isharo isharo me dil lene wale
Pukarta chalaa hun mein
Bachpan ki mohabbat ko
Ik Baat Kahun Mere Piya
Man Tadpat Hari Darshan Ko
Nanha Munna Rahi Hu
Sawan Aaye Ya Na
Aha rimjhim ke ye pyare pyare
Aja re mai to kab se
Duronto Ghurnir Eyi Legechhe Paak
Itna na mujhase tu pyar badha
Jaa re jaa re ure jaa re paakhi
Janeman Janeman Tere Do Nayan
Kahin door jab din dhal jaye
Keno kichhu kotha bolo na
Maine Tere Liye Hi Saat Rang Ke
O Mor Moyna Go
O Sajnaa, barakha bahaar aayee
Rajani gandha ful tumhare
Suhana safar aur ye
Kaisi Hai Ye Rut Ke Jisme
Main Kabhi Batlata Nahin (Maa)
Man Mast Magan
Meri Zindagi Me Aye Ho
Mitwa (Mere man ye bata de tu)
Socho ke Jheelo ka shehar ho
Suno gaur sey duniya walon
Yaar illahi mere
Brishti Pade Tapur Tupur
Dur hai kinara
Ek daal par tota bole
Ghungroo ki tarah
Shyam teri bansi
Bheege hont tere
Haye mera dil churake le gaya
Ye moh moh ke dhaage
Ik aisi ladki thi
Tum Dil ki dhadkan me
Tumhe apna banaane ki kasam / ka junoo
Ae Zindagi Gale Laga Le
Kanmani Anbodu Kadhalan
Surmayee ankhiyon me
Thumbi wa thumpakkudathin
Aaoge jab tum o saajna
Alvida, alvida
Bheegi Bheegi Si Hai Raatein
Gerua (Dhoop se nikal ke)
Hawayein (Le jaye jane kaha)
Hum rahe ya na rahe kal
Janam janam janam
Tum mile to jeena aa gaya
Tum se Hi (Na hai ye paana…)
