BEST BOLLYWOOD SONG
Music while travelling is as necessary as your travel kit of essentials. There is the constantly updated playlist for every day, and then there is the list of all-time Bollywood favourites. But, when it comes to travel some songs have to be on your playlist. We've compiled a list which is a motley mix of old and new that we think should be in every traveller's playlist. We would love to know yours! Let us know your favourite travel songs in the comments!
1. Yunhi Chala Chal (Swades)
If you're treading along the lesser travelled roads of India, make sure you have this song on your playlist to keep your spirits up when you are squashed in a bus full of locals. Bonus fun if you can find a 'baba' to sing along on the trip.

2. Dil Chahta Hai (Title Track)
It's hard to leave this one of the list. Farhan Akhtar's 2001 debut film is when travel took a front seat in a Bollywood film than just as a backdrop to a scene. Dil Chahta Hai in our opinion will always remain the ultimate hindi travel song for road trips, especially if during from Mumbai to Goa through the Konkan coast, where this song was shot.

3. Khwabon Ke Parindey (ZNMD)
Exactly ten years later, Farhan Akhtar's sister Zoya comes out with an extension of the road trip vibe movie, only this time on a much larger scale. As a result, we have a film that not only has travel as the central theme but inspires you to travel. Haven't you all tried waving your hand against the wind, as Hrithik did?

4. Tanha Dil (Shaan)
A song for the solo travellers, to get lost in nostalgia; Shaan's voice has swooned us for years and this song is just one of his best. What's more, the music video features Shaan himself!

5. Suhana Safar Aur Ye (Madhumati)
There is a reason why 'old is gold', it's because of classics like this song. From the 1958 movie Madhumati, picturized on Dilip Kumar and Vyjantimala, the tune is so melodious you can't help but hum along with it - A must add on your list of road trip songs.

6. Hum Jo Chalne Lage (Jab We Met)
While solo travels are bliss but having someone along with you to share the journey makes it so much more worthwhile. This beautiful song speaks of just that, even a mundane journey becomes exciting when you share it with someone special.

7. Zindagi Ek Safar Hai Suhana (Andaaz)
A classic again, this time from 1971's Andaaz, sang by the legendary Kishore Kumar? remember the? yodelling?? You can't not have this song on your playlist, hum away! Or 'yodel' if you may!

8. Ilahi (YJHD)
Admit it, you wished for Bunny aka Kabir aka Ranbir's life in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. You repeated this dialogue, "Main udna chahta hoon, daudna chahta hoon, girna bhi chahta hoon bus rukhna nahi chahta", to anyone who asked you why you want to travel!

9. Musafir Hoon Yaaron
Na ghar hai, na thikaana.. Sounds like your soul on a trip? Well, it is the reason why it appears on this list. While new numbers are all funky and peppy, nothing beats the charm of Kishore Kumar's voice on the road!

15. Kabira (Ye Jawani Hai Deewani)
Bunny was pretty nomadic, and boy wasn't his life awesome! Kabira is perfect for when you're leaving a tiny part of your heart in a new place and are dealing with all the blues of separation.
