Bollywood films offer more than just star casts, dhinchak item numbers and cool action scenes. There have been numerous Bollywood movies over the years which are dominated by impressive performances, great stories and beautiful songs which instantly made it to our personal playlists.

Now apart from being highly memorable songs, these also played a major role in introducing their audience to some iconic Indian landmarks and immortalising them just like their music. Here are 5 such Indian landmarks and tourist spots which were grafted into public memory, thanks to these superhit Bollywood songs.

1. Marine Drive - Iktara

This song is a favorite of thousands and much like the lyrics and music of this song from Wake Up Sid, even the breezy picturisation on the Marine Drive caught everyone’s attention.

2. Rohtang Pass - Yeh Ishq Haye

Who can ever forget Geet aka Kareena’s enthusiastic dance moves as she twirled through the snow-laden passages of Rohtang Pass in Jab We Met? Trust us, many have tried to recreate it over the years.

3. Jama Masjid - Arziyan

This soulful AR Rahman composition sung in the praise of the lord is beautifully captured in this song from Delhi-6 which was shot in the premises of Jama Masjid. Simply amazing to say the least.

4. Vidyadhar Garden - Dhadak

Dhadak may have given people a number of songs to hum, but its title track had the special touch to it since it was shot at a great location in Jaipur. The scenes from the song featuring Jhanvi and Ishaan truly makes one feel like giving this garden a personal visit.

5. Dal Lake - Jiya Re

Who can forget a zesty Anushka Sharma dancing on a boat in the middle of the Dal Lake in the song from Jab Tak Hai Jaan? This was a fun song, and the location only added to the charm of this peppy number.
