while surfing, i came across a list of ten best choreographed songs of indian film industry.... and it triggered a host of memories of love, infatuation, crushes and immaturity... here's one song that i'll never cease to like...

Pehla Nasha: Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikander

A song that talks about first love, picturised on a couple with stars in their eyes. One of the most magical songs in Hindi movies, it very smartly captured the entire essence of first love with the lovers literally floating in the air. Full of dewy freshness, Pehla nasha was like a rainbow coloured air bubble, with the lovers dreamily dancing with their heads far in the clouds! The uniqueness of the song was that it was shot completely in slow motion, with perfect lip sync.

In the movie (Joh Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, 1992) Aamir Khan is wildly infatuated with Pooja Bedi and his head is in a whirl as he fantasizes about her. Ayesha Jhulka loves Aamir and shyly dreams of him kissing her tenderly (and ever so chastely!) on her cheeks. With Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik's mellifluous voices and perfect casting with the two actors, the song became the love anthem for youngsters across the country, and still remains one of the most popular numbers ever.
