I am not impressed with this list of yours too much, except #5.
I know its a matter of personal choice, but you really have left out some classics.
How about:
Phoolo kai Rang Se Dil Kee Kalam Sai tujko likhee roj baatee…
Also :
Mero Sapno Kee Rani Kab aayegee tu, aayee rut mastanee kab aayege tu
I know this one is a bit cheesy but its got to be on every list which talks about romanitc songs.
YOUR SERVICES FOR HUMANITY,INDIAN CULTURE AND CIVILIZATION WILL SURVIVE
FOR EVER.
you are also requested to set to videos or audioes the songs of the films Saajan (1948)
and Aansoo(1953)
awesome list. keep it up, only a few people these days remember and appreciate these songs!!
I have the same openion as Mr Arif Aziz mentioned on 15 jul 09
