It is the season of rain, traffic jam, potholes opening up, more 'chai' than wine and a lot of feel of pure romance. It doesn't matter whether you have that special someone in your life or you are single, we present to you the ultimate monsoon playlist that will make you want to dance with that special someone, even if you are single! Here are our 18 top favourites:

1. Sawan Barse Tarse  Dil

You either have heard this song and keep going back to it, or you haven't heard it and will now love it. No other way to describe this.

2. Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein

The original song is a melodious romantic number from the 70s but the 90s kids recognise it for its revamped sexy avatar that was on everyone's playlist.

  3. Neeley Neeley Ambar Par

Yet another classic 'baarish' number that was revamped for all of us by Nitin Bali. Rings a bell?

  4. Rim Jhim Girey Saawan

One of those iconic songs which can be termed as the OG of all 'baarish' numbers. R D Burman and Lata Mangeshkar have weaved some serious magic with this one. If this doesn't make you want to forward it to someone, what will?

5. Koi Ladki Hai

We all have done some version of 'chak dhoom dhoom' during our school days and only wished we had someone who could match our steps.

6. Zara Zara Behakta Hai

If this song is not touching your carnal desires and making you wish you were not stuck at work or at home with your mom/dad and actually holding someone close, then actually nothing will. Just sleep.

7. Hum Tum

The part where she sings 'shabnam ki boondein' gives thee all the feels of thy aching heart!

8. Ke Sawan

Trust Shubha Mudgal to give meaning and music to your desires.

9. Kabhi Jo Badal Barse

Finally we have an Arijit number. This could make you miss your lover or break your heart further if you just broke up.

10. Teri Meri Kahani

Once again, Arijit Singh knows how to express and exactly what to sing. Oh, don't miss the strumming of the guitar in the background!

11. Tum Hi Ho

This song has been on EVERY damn list in the country. You know you want to kiss someone under a blazer in the blazing rain, right? I know the practical scenario would be you stuck in a pot hole though. That doesn't deter this song from being in the list.

12. Tum Se Hi

Mohit Chauhan, two lost lovers, what transcends you back to 2007 better than this beautiful rain number?

13. Woh Lamhe

'Wo bheegi bheegi yaadein' transfers us to the time when all of us were newly introduced to Atif's magic.

14. Ye Mausam Ki Barish

This is the only entry that is less than a year old which makes me realise two things. Firstly, Bollywood needs more new, original songs. Secondly, Bollywood needs more 'barish' songs!

15. Ae Udi Udi

You want to dance with someone on this song, even if it's in the shower, doesn't matter!

16. Jo Haal Dil Ka

Aamir Khan and Sonali Bendre heat up the moment with this really hot rain number.

17. Mohabbat Barsa Dena Tum

Yet again, like I mentioned before, Arijit knows it best!

18. Akhir Tumhe Aana Hai

The last but definitely not the least on the list! Sanjay Dutt and Nagma know exactly how to do romance on a rainy night. Take cues, share cues.

Hallo fraands! In case you're not able to find anyone, just make yourself a cup of chai, dip a packet of Parle-G biscuits and sing along to this list. Garam hai!
