11 Remixes Of Old Bollywood Songs That Made Every '90s Kid Groove

This is a throwback to the time of Shaktiman, Shakalaka Boom Boom, landline phones, Gold Spot, Rooh Afza, popsicles, Rasna and more. The list of things that made life awesome for every '90s kid is endless: there was good food, better cartoons, school wasn¡¯t that crazy, and everything else that made it a truly glorious time to live in.

But if we are truly acknowledging the things that accounted for a great time, it would be unfair to leave out the remixes of old songs that made us groove. The string of awesome songs that actually released in the late '90s went on and on till early 2000.

From then on, every party in every nook and corner, every house in the vicinity and every show on music channels like MTV or Channel [V] showed these songs in their prime time. Wanna know which one?

1. Kaanta Laga

Originally from the movie Samadhi which released in the year 1972, the song came back to life in a 2002 music video where Shefali Zariwala made everyone dance to her tunes. For kids, it was quite a leap of awareness.

2. Kehdoon Tumhen

Who would have thought that a Shashi Kapoor¡¯s blockbuster from 1975 would give every song in the market a run for its music? The Kehdoon Tumhen remix by DJ Aqeel was undoubtedly one of the most popular songs of its time.

3. Saiyan Dil Mein Aana Re

An old classic from 1951 that featured the iconic Vaijayanti Mala was brought back in the game with a pinch of good beats and some English rap that made everyone sing. Also, believe it or not, they stole the ¡®If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends¡¯ rap from Spice Girls¡¯ ¡®Wannabe¡¯.

4. Kabhi Aar Kabhi Paar

The song ¡®Kabhi Aar Kabhi Paar¡¯ from the movie Aar-Paar was a treat to the ears in 1954 and made a huge comeback in 2005 - let¡¯s hand it to the song, shall we? This time, the video featured Shefali Zariwala. Even now if you go to the YouTube comments, people are still talking about the beats.

5. Nahin Nahin

Dj Aqeel Nahin Nahin rocked parties like never before. ¡®Shake It daddy¡¯ a term made famous by the song was also something that was instantly catchy. Featuring Ayesha Takiya and Keith Sequeira, this version of Nahin Nahin became one hell of a party setter.

6. Dil Kya Kare

The song Dil Kya Kare from the super controversial 1975 Hindi film Julie came back in the market in the year 2008. Instant Karma, the name that became synonymous with super beats created this new version was sung by Shaan.

7. Chadti Jawani Meri Chaal Mastani

By the time the remix of this song came to us, the lead actress in the original song was already playing motherly roles on daily soaps. This 1971 blockbuster featuring Jeetendra and Aruna Irani had many more interesting songs like Kitna Pyara Wada. Anyhow, the remix was the kind that topped many chartbusters.

8. Sajna Hai Mujhe Sajna Ke Liye

This song from a 1973 flick Saudagar featuring Amitabh Bachchan and Nutan was picked by Dj Hot Mix amongst a series of old songs remixes that they made. This peppy song then became most played on every TV and radio show.

9. Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein

A model, actress, and television personality from Lucknow, Anupama Verma bagged plenty of attention post the release of this song. The setting, where a hunk rescues a damsel on a rather rainy night became a top charter.

10. Hum Bewafa

The old song from Dharmendra¡¯s Shalimar that made many people cry and mourn for no good reason was brought back by Instant Karma, once again sung by Shaan. Other than the music, the video was hit as it featured model Shyla Lopez.

11. Ghar Jayegi Tar Jayegi

One can say that we saved the best of one for last, but in our opinion, this was one of the most underrated remixes from those days. Sung by Madhushree, the song made much dance at weddings and parties.

Hoping we didn¡¯t miss anything. Anyway, tell us your favourite?
