Alka Yagnik has become the “most streamed artist on YouTube”. The versatile singer hit this staggering milestone by beating many international artists like Taylor Swift, BTS, and Beyonce. According to Guinness Book Of World Records, her songs were streamed 15.3 billion times in 2022, around 42 million times a day!!!
Coming from a family of music enthusiasts, I grew up listening to Alka Yagnik’s hits. From playing Agar Tum Saath Ho after a bitter break-up to dancing my heart out on You Are My Soniya, her songs kept me company through it all.
I am a proud fan right now and def revisiting some of my fave Alka Yagnik songs of all time. Scroll down ‘coz I know you would love these songs too:
The OG Wedding Song!
This has been the go-to song for most of my sangeet performances. At this point, it only makes sense that I dance on it at my wedding too!
One For The Hopeless Romantics!
No song has ever touched my soul like this one!
Did Someone Say ‘Party Anthem’?
This one is my go-to song for pre-clubbing car rides. No matter what mood I’m in, it instantly turns me into a chirpy bird.
For That ‘Naya Naya Pyaar’!
I still remember listening to this with my dadi while telling her about my crush in class five. Even today, it soothes the hopeless romantic in me.
The Mandatory ‘Baarish’ Song!
I can’t possibly count the number of times I performed on this one in front of the mirror.
BRB, Singing This For My Crush!
The whole album of Raaz was a hit but this song is my fave from the lot. There is something about it that just brings out my romantic side.
For The Lovebirds!
On the days when I feel a bit corny, I play this one on repeat.
Congratulations, Alka Yagnik! You will be my forever hero!
