Every 90s kid has a memory that he/she can’t let go of. It’s been years but things from our growing up years have now become a part of the popular culture, and millennials have aced the art of not letting go of things that they held close to their hearts. Singing and dancing to Bollywood numbers being on top, TBH!
Be it Govinda-Karishma thumkas or listening to some classic Indian music tracks, everything has been sacred to us. While today’s generation is obsessed with the Kardashians or Jake and Logan Paul, we, on the other hand, were smitten by the beautiful Madhuri Dixit.
If it wasn’t for her, 90s would have never been the same. Madhuri was the heart of Bollywood. Heads turned with every move of hers. The admiration, the respect, and the fanbase that Madhuri earned at that time still exists. In fact, believe it or not getting that stature for any actress in today’s date is impossible.
It took Madhuri just a few years to earn everything. Be it her persona, her stardom, or her screen presence—it felt like she was a God’s creation born to do this. While we saw her growing, we somewhere always knew she was a page straight out of history in making. Madhuri didn’t have any competition because she belonged to a different league altogether and dominated the industry.
At one moment she could be that girl next door, and another she could tease us with her raw sensuality. Madhuri was a synonym of perfection and there isn’t anyone who can take that crown away from her till date.
While her acting was one thing that stunned us, she was also the dancing queen who could set the stage on fire with her moves. She was beautiful and at the same time sensual and desirable and a lot more than what words can describe.
As the actress turns a year older (honestly, we should say younger), we bring a list of her iconic songs that made our growing years uber cool and happening. TBH, we owe the 90s and a lot of our memories to this goddess!
Ek Do Teen
This is one of those tracks that can make us go tra-la-la till day. Well, the makers did try to revamp this amazing track from ‘Tezaab’ for ‘Baaghi 2’ but Jacqueline was no Madhuri.
Humko Aaj Kal Hai Intezaar
There hasn’t been anybody on this planet whose heart didn’t flutter seeing Madhuri in this sexy fisherwoman avatar. Adding this song to our list is a must hence. Grab this opportunity to listen to this amazing track once again.
Tamma Tamma
Well, Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan did make us dance in the new version of Tamma Tamma. But if it wasn’t for Madhuri we wouldn’t have heard that song in the first place ever. And let us all unanimously agree that what Madhuri did, even Alia and Varun couldn’t recreate.
Didi Tera Devar Deewana
Tell me, tell me you are one of those crazy Madhuri fans, who would instantly dance to this number from ‘Hum Aapke Hai Kaun’ on any wedding!
Dhak Dhak
If there is one song that can make us go weak in our knees even today, it’s this one. Anil Kapoor and Madhuri’s chemistry in ‘Dhak Dhak’ from ‘Beta’ was the most talked about thing during those days.
Akhiyaan Milaoon Kabhi
Do we need to say anything for this one?
Mera Piya Ghar Aaya
If you haven’t danced to this one matching steps with Madhuri, you ain’t a 90s kid then!
Channe Ke Khet Mein
And that step, you know what we are talking about, right?
Key Sera Sera
Yeah, this was our favourite during the Walkman days!
Maar Daala & Kaahe Chhed Mohe
If it wasn’t for Madhuri and her aura, Chandramukhi would have never looked so breathtaking.
Choli Ke Peeche Kya Hai
That signature step…how can we get over that? And Ila Arun’s voice to match with Madhuri’s sensual dance moves!
Are Re Are
While Shah Rukh Khan redefined romance for us, it was this song by Madhuri and SRK from ‘Dil Toh Pagal Hai’ that made us believe in true love.
O Re Piya
This was Madhuri’s comeback movie after a long hiatus, what a comeback it was! Rahat Fateh Ali Khan’s voice and Madhuri’s phenomenal steps created a song that makes you fall in love again and again.
Ghagra
Of course, this is not from the 90s, and yet we couldn’t help but include this one in our list. And who would have thought a song around ghagra could be the top one on the chartbuster for a long, long time?
