Anu Malik

Anu Malik is a well known music composer. He also sings.

Border won accolades for it’s music with songs like Sandese Aate Hai and Aye Jaatein Huye Lamhon.

The music for the Aishwarya Rai starrrer Josh was edgy. Kalyug,  Victory and the latest big banner Kambakkth Ishq with Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor, are some other examples of his work.

Apart from movies, he also brought out music albums like Dekho Baarish Ho Rahi Hai.

Ash n Sallu in Tune

If Aishwarya Rai is going to test her vocals for Raavana, Salman Khan is not far behind. He will be singing in his new movie Wanted Dead And Alive and it is already a biggie. It is supposed to be  tinged with sadness but with a high tempo.

It is not the first time that Salman Khan is singing for  a movie. He had done  a number for Hello Brother called Chand Ki Daal Per. Watch it HERE.  The song was picturised on Rani Mukherji and Salman Khan.

Wanted Dead And Alive is directed by Prabhu Deva and stars Ayesha Takia.

Sunidhi Chauhan

Sunidhi Chauhan is one of the youngest voices in Bollywood. She is the voice behind some the  most popular songs in movies.

Bhaage Re Mann from Chameli captured the romance of the rains and was shot with Kareena Kapoor dancing in the rain.

Dhoom Machale from Dhoom packed a punch with Esha Deol on stage.

In the sequel Dhoom 2 she sang Crazy Kiya Re which was picturised around Aishwarya Rai.

Pyar Ki Ek Kahani Suno in Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd had Minnisha Lamba and Abhay Deol in a tango-ish dance.

In Desi Girl from Dostana she was the singing voice for Priyanka Chopra.

Dance Pe Chance in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi saw the new star Anushka Sharma shaking a leg.

The Singing Stars

Bollywood actors are not a content lot, are they? Their talents include but refuses to be restricted to acting. They sing too as they bask in variegated glory. And sometimes not.

As far as voice power goes, none can beat Amitabh Bachhan as he growls, soothes, mocks and commands. No stranger to playback singing, his songs are a rage by virtue of that distinctive voice. Mere Angne Mein from Laawaris, the colourful Rang Barse from Silsila never fail to delight.

Abhishek Bacchan crooned the totally chilled out Right Here Right Now in Bluffmaster and Dilbara in Dhoom. Aamir Khan’s attempts were popular too from the attitude-y Aati Kya Kandala? in Ghulaam to the gleeful Bum Bum Bole in Taare Zameen Par.

Shah Rukh Khan tried to figure  out how to woo his woman with Apun Bola in Josh with Aishwarya Rai and Paan Banaraswaala in Don – The Chase Begins Again and then there was Chak De India.

Joining the bandwagon is Akshay Kumar, after the title track of Singh Is Kinng with Snoop Dog, he is rapping with Bohemia in Chandni Chowk to China.

The ladies weren’t far behind. Sridevi giggled and sang the girlish Chandni and Kareena Kapoor has done her share with Jab Nahin Aaye Tum in Dev and Mein Prem Ki Deewani Hoon.

More power to them!
