Rani's comeback movie 'Aiyya' had all the right ingredients of a masala potboiler, so it came as no surprise when the bubbly actress swayed to 'Dreamem Wakeupum Critical Conditionam', a typical 'in-your-face' song.  It's a dream song where Rani is fantasising about Prithviraj, who plays a Tamilain in the movie. Hence, the weird 'um' or Tamilization of the word. We think it's rather lame.

'Kya Super Kool Hain Hum' was in the news not only for its 'A' rated trailers, but also for the chartbuster number 'Dil Gardden Garden Ho Gaya'. This fun, 70s-like song has Tusshar Kapoor and Riteish Deshmukh swaying to drum beats in funky outfits. The phrase 'Garden Garden' is a take on the Hindi idiom 'Dil Baag Baag Hona'. Needless to say, this song has become a youth anthem at clubs.

Pyaar ki Pungi Baja (Agent Vinod) In an otherwise forgettable movie, this song stands out purely for its wild lyrics. With words like 'pungi bajana' (loosely translated as 'kick your ass' in this song) in it, the song had to become a rage. The alleged plagiarism controversy only added to the song's numero uno status.

The Hunter song (Gangs of Wasseypur) In a movie with a hard-hitting concept, this song comes as a welcome respite. The lyrics (sample this: I am a hunter and She want to see my gun; When I pull it out by the, Women start to run), which stink of double entendre meaning, have caught on like wildfire and have upped the bar for other such rustic lyrics to follow.

Bhag DK Bose (Delhi Belly) The whole 'lyrics-with-a-twist' phase might not have started with this number, but it definitely helped in making this phase a rage. The song turned a desi swear word into a colloquial chant and had youngsters going gaga over it. Although it was damned by the oldies for its bad influence, the song became a huge hit and is still a popular crowd puller!

Chinta Ta Ta (Rowdy Rathore) These insane lyrics are not very surprising to us, considering the movie itself makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Whoever came up with the Chinta Ta Ta song was not paid well by the producers, because nothing else can explain why these gems are part of the lyrics. The best part is, the movie has raked in big moolah, all thanks to the wacky lyrics and 'rapchik' dancing!

The Mutton song (Luv Ka The End) This song became a hit because of lyrics that go like this: ‘Calvin ka kachchha chhoda hai, Choli se daaman joda hai.’ That the hero also dressed up in a blue choli and red lehenga, thrusting his 'womanhood' for all to see, just added to the song's massive reach.

Jalebi Bai (Double Dhamaal) Mallika Sherawat could be as 'chikni' as a jalebi, but dancing to a song that goes like 'Cha cha cha chikne, Chikne mujhse phisal gaye...' is just cringe-worthy.

Gadbad Ho Gayi (ChaalBaaz) This 1989 film was a blockbuster hit because of Sridevi's charming double role, along with crazy songs like 'Gadbad Ho Gayi, Seeti Baj Gayi'. The song, which has Sridevi making her tormentors' lives hell, was an instant hit due to its weird rhythm, inane lyrics and Sridevi's antics!

Main To Raste Se Jaa (Coolie No 1) This is the quintessential 90s song, what with Govinda's blinding T-shirts and Karisma Kapoor's over-the-top 'jhatkas and matkas'! With lyrics that go like 'Teri Nani Mari To Main Kya Karun?', the song was bound to be a hit. The lead pair's electrifying dance movements only added to the song's quirkiness and made it the craziest 'tapori’ song of all time.

Kisi Disco Mein Jaayen ( Bade Miyan Chote Miyan) Another classic from Govinda's stable, this 1998 number became a hit for its everyday lyrics like 'Kisi Disco Mei Jaayen, Kisi Hotel Mei Khaayen'. Govinda's crackling chemistry with Raveena Tandon also did the trick. The song is a true reminder of the 90s.
