The female model in the song is none other than Kajol and Rani’s cousin, Sharbani Mukherjee, who has already made her Bollywood debut through ‘Border’ in 1997. She later moved to regional cinema.

36. Chhuimui Si Tum Lagti Ho – It was a romantic anthem of late 1990s starring Preeti Jhangiani & Abbas. Abbas was already a star down south and Preeti, a rising model. The album Yeh Hai Prem contains a series of love songs, and they were pictured as a sequence of incidents, from blooming romance to marriage, and the music videos were well appreciated. Milind Ingle composed and sang its popular songs, and was featured in them too. The music videos were directed by Kunal Kohli. “Yeh Hai Prem”, “Kudi Jach Gayi” and “O Priya” are other popular music videos. Actress Sudha Chandran was also seen in Chhuimui Si Tum Lagti Ho.

37. Yaro Sab Dua Karo & Jogiya Khalli Balli – Kahkashan Patel and Jus Arora were featured in this popular Qawwali sung by Ram Shankar. The song was immensely popular.

39. Woh Pyar Mera – This particular track is indeed very beautiful, yet not very popular similar to Alisha Chinai’s previous hits. It was one of the first screen appearances of Amrita Rao, who later achieved success through a few memorable roles in Bollywood.

40. Kehna To Hai – This super melodious romantic track of Kumar Sanu featured Shahid Kapoor and Nauheed Cyrusi. It’s absolutely delightful to hear Kumar Sanu singing to soft melodies. The album was titled Kehna To Hai, and Shahid Kapoor and Nauheed Cyrusi were featured in the title track. Alka Yagnik’s humming voice can be heard in this song.

41. Jaane Kyon Mein – Sonu Nigam’s Jaan was an instant chartbuster in 2000, and it featured many popular models of that time. Diya Mirza was featured in this romantic track aside Sonu Nigam, before she made her Bollywood debut. She also appeared Sonu in the remixed version of ‘Kajra Mohabbatwala‘ song later.

42. Humein Tumse Pyar Hai Kaise Kahe – Vivan Bhatena got instant success through Phalguni Patak’s Maine Payal Hain Chankaayi. He was also seen in this sad track featured in Sonu Nigam’s Yaad released in 2001. I am not sure about the female model in this song, I think she appeared in a few television soaps. In fact this music video was a medley of three songs – Humein Tumse Pyar Hai Kaise Kahe, Kuch Hua Aur Kuch and Mere Siva. Sonu Nigam sizzles in the romantic tracks of Yaad, and it was a continuation to his successful albums, Deewana and Jaan.  

43. Deewane Hoke Hum Milne Lage Sanam – This popular track was featured in Sonu Nigam’s Jaan, and the song featured Himanshu Malik and Sandali Sinha. Later they worked together in Bollywood musical – Tum Bin. All the songs of the album were heart touching and were enough to place him among the list of well-established pop stars of that time. Sandali Sinha was earlier featured in the medley of songs – Kon Hai Wo Ladki, Kuch Tum Socho and Deewana Kiya Hai teri Yadom Ne for Sonu Nigam’s Deewana.

44. Kuch Tum Socho – Yet another soft track belonging to Sonu Nigam. The song belongs to Sonu’s Deewana, and featured the popular models, Himanshu Malik and Gul Panag. When whole pop artists of 1990s tried to concentrate on to fast beats, Sonu stick on to soft melodious tunes and that’s why he stood among the odd.

45. Chanda Ki Doli – The title track of Sonu Nigam’s Chanda Ki Doli was an instant chartbuster. Sonu turned a music director with this album released in 2005. Nisha Rawal played the female lead in this music video. She is a known model, a television actress and had a brief stint in Bollywood as well.

47. Kabhi Nahi – Adnan Sami’s Tera Chehra featured many Bollywood artists. I think it’s for the first time, Amitabh Bachchan worked with a guest artist for a music video.

48. Aafreen Aafreen – This popular song composed and sung by legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan featured Lisa Ray, who later worked in Bollywood movies like Kasoor. Lisa was a hot model in the late 1990s.

49. Kabhi Aana Tu Meri Gali – Dr. Palash Sen with his Euphoria band has given many popular and awesome tunes in the late 1990s and early 2000s. In fact this particular song gave the real break to Vidya Balan who has been stuck with bad luck for many years with delayed projects. Pradeep Sarkar who directed this video gave her the first Bollywood break through Parineeta, and as they say, ‘Rest is history!’ Neha Dhupia in “Sha Na” is yet another popular actress who got her first break through Palash’s music videos. She got this break before she became Miss India. Dhoom was the first album released by Palash’s Euphoria, which was a smash hit.

50. Maerii – Euphoria’s Maerii song gave the first break to actress Rimi Sen, who later sizzled onscreen in Dhoom aside Abhishek Bachchan. The music video is indeed fabulous, Palash Sen’s voice too.
