Guzarish, Ghajini
Rahman has composed some of the best music for Aamir Khan's movies like Earth 1947, Rangeela, Lagaan, Rang De Basanti and Ghajini. Here's a song from Ghajini called Guzarish.
Behka, Ghajini
Another Ghajni song, Behka, was quite a big hit as well. It sees Aamir in six different looks.
Sajna, Couples Retreat
Rahman's first Hollywood film Couples Retreat has some Hindi lyrics, mixed beautifully with Western tunes. Here's Sajna.
Genda Phool, Delhi 6
Genda Phool, from Delhi 6, has a good mix of folk and Western music. Rekha Bhardwaj's voice enhances the song even more.
Masakali, Delhi 6
Singer Mohit Chauhan gets naughty with Masakali, again from Delhi 6. This Abhishek Bachchan-Sonam Kapoor film may not have done well but it has some of the best music.
Dost, Yuvvraaj
Rahman has composed some of the best tunes with Subhash Ghai too, through the years. From 1999's Taal to 2008's Yuvvraaj, the composer has always excelled.
Shano Shano, Yuvvraaj
Watch Shano Shano, picturised on the film's cast, Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif and Zayed Khan.
Muskura, Yuvvraaj
Katrina apparently took cello classes for this song, Muskura. Have a look at it.
Kabhi Kabhi Aditi, Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na
Singer Rashid Ali's song Kabhi Kabhi Aditi in Jaane Tu... became a rage among youngsters. Rahman, and Aamir, sure know how to please their audiences.
Kahin Toh, Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na
Imran Khan makes this romantic number Kahin Toh look good.
Nazrein Milaana, Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na
Another Jaane Tu... song, Nazrein Milaana, picks up the tempo, and rocks.
Pappu can't dance, Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na
Whether Pappu can dance or not, Rahman can sure make you dance to his music!
Taal
Rahman's Taal had some brilliant music, and was one of the key reasons for the film's success.
