This is a name which needs no introduction! Alka Yagnik is a personality which every Indian household is familiar with a tad bit well. Be it Bhajans, or Bollywood songs, or other regional songs – there’s no escape from her.
She almost sang 2,486 Hindi songs in 1,114 films. Isn’t it quite a number? She’s one of the lucky personalities to be awarded the National Film Awards twice and 20 of her tracks got featured in BBC’s ‘Top 40 Bollywood Soundtracks of all time’ review.
On her 54th birthday, we at BollywoodBee bring to you her all-time chartbusters, favorites, & famous songs sung by her. Listen to them once again; who’s knows, they may make it your playlist again!
