Yaaaahhooooo!!! Part II

As Shammi Kapoor Week ends, I leave you with more of Shammi Kapoor's famous songs. I couldn't think of anything better that more songs! When I looked over the first Yaahhooo post, I remembered more of Shammi Kapoor's energetic, fun, romantic and soulful songs.

So without further delay here are 20 more Shammi Kapoor Hits:

1. Govinda Ala Re


2. Bachke Jane Na Dungi


3. O Mr. Banjo


4. Isharon Isharon Mein


5. Dekho Ji Dekho (2:20)


6. Janabe Ali


7. Masoom Chehra


8. Rangat Teri Surat


9. Dhadakne Lagta Hai


10. Akele Akele


11. Yeh Rang Na Chutega


12. Chakke Mein Chakka


13. Kahin Na Kahin


14. Jane Bahar Husn


15. Dilruba Dil Pe


16. Hum Aur Tum Aur Yeh Sama


17. Hai Duniya Usiki


18. Yeh Umar Hai Kya


19. Deewana Mujhsa Nahi


20. Deewane Ka Naam


Watching these songs brings back so many memories from my childhood. I re-live all of the fun times over again. I think back to when I first started watching Shammi Kapoor films and dancing to his songs (even though I thought the dancing was weird!). I had a lot of fun going back and coming up with these posts for Shammi Kapoor Week. Hope you had just as much fun reading them and dancing along to his fun-filled masti-full songs!

Shammi Kapoor Unplugged

Shammi Kapoor is probably one of the last remaining actors of an era in Bollywood when things were only starting to get big. He in a way symbolizes changes that the Bollywood Hero underwent over time. From a serious leading man to a fun-loving romantic hero, Shammi Kapoor was one of the first to lead audiences through that path paving a way for the romantic heroes of today.

Recently, Shammi Kapoor launched a series of videos where he takes his audience and fans down memory lane, reliving moments from his life. Here are some of the episodes of Shammi Kapoor Unplugged.
