Songs are an important part of Bollywood and filming songs, even more so. There are many songs in Bollywood that have been shot as dream sequences, allowing the director to take the film’s characters to exotic locations. Oftentimes, the lead pair will be chatting on the crowded streets of Chandni Chowk in Delhi and be transported to the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt like in the song “Suraj Hua Maddham” from Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Some dream sequences were shot in surreal sets created in film studios; such as Bollywood’s first dream sequence song, “Ghar Aaya Mera Pardesi” from Awaara. Listen to this podcast for these as well as other fun dream songs like “Woh ladki Hai Kahan” from Dil Chahta Hai, “Jiya Jale” from Dil Se, “Yaar Bina Chain Kahan Re” From Saaheb.
