Whenever I am feeling low India comes in and saves me! I mean, there are certainly the fair share of movies that make me cry my eyes out or make me want to just disappear in to the world of the movie I am watching or just look at all the pretty and forget about analysing or trying to look too deep because it would ruin it otherwise. So here are songs that perk me up or just put a smile on my face. Nothing more, nothing less in no certain ranking order.
AND YES ALL OF THESE ARE INDIAN FILM SONGS!
NO NEED FOR CONTEXT AS LONG THERE IS A SMILE!
