Filmy Shilmy: Three awesome songs, overplayed BUT I love them anyway

Yes they are overplayed, but every time I listen to these songs I want to get up and dance! The rhythm, the joie de vivre simply lifts up my mood and gets me going. Of course it is no surprise that Gulzar penned each of these songs! The lyrics are amazing, soulful in the case of Chaiyya Chaiyya, and rustic and earthy in the two item songs. But the poetry mixed with the melody is hard to resist. Sukhvinder and Sunidhi have something in common, they belt out the numbers with incredible enthusiasm; but Alisha does a similarly great job, though in a more sultry, way in Kajarare.
