मैं बची हो रामजी की कृपा से
Aaye Ho Meri Zindagi Mein (Movie: Raja Hindustani)
Raja Hindustani was one of Aamir Khan’s legacy, and the album of this movie was welcomed with open arms.

This song’s love and catchiness made it one of the most popular Antakshari songs. Here’s how the song’s lyrics go:
आए हो मेरी ज़िंदगी में तुम बहार बन के
मेरे दिल में यूँ ही रहना तुम प्यार-प्यार बन के
आए हो मेरी ज़िंदगी में तुम बहार बन के
आँखों में तुम बसे हो सपने १००० बन के
मेरे दिल में यूँ ही रहना तुम प्यार-प्यार बन के
Ye Shaam Mastani (Movie: Kati Patang)
The 1970s is believed to be the best era of Indian music melodies, and that’s the time when the movie Kati Patanag was released and brought with it a song that people are still vibing upon in the evenings. ‘Ye Shaam Mastani’ is a song that people sing as soon as they get to start a song with the letter ‘Y.’ It was written by Anand Bakshi, sung by Kishore Kumar, and music composed by R. D. Burman. Here are the starting lyrics of the song:
ये शाम मस्तानी, मदहोश किये जाये
मुझे डोर कोई खींचे, तेरी ओर लिये जाये
दूर रहती है तू, मेरे पास आती नहीं
होठों पे तेरे, कभी प्यास आती नहीं
ऐसा लगे, जैसे कि तू, हँसके ज़हर कोई पिये जाये
शाम मस्तानी …
Kabootar Ja Ja (Movie: Maine Pyaar Kiya)
Salman Khan’s debut movie was a success, and its music was a crucial factor in it. Lyricist Dev Kohli has perfectly penned down the emotions of the first love letter in ‘Kabootar Ja Ja.’
Singer Lata Mangeshkar and S. P. Balasubramaniam sang the song so well that it is etched on memories forever. This love song has undoubtedly been made to be part of every Hindi Antakshari song list. Here’s the starting part of the song that you can sing on your turn in Antakshari:
कबूतर जा जा जा, कबूतर जा जा जा
पहले प्यार की पहली चिट्ठी हो..ओ..ओ..
साजन को दे आ
कबूतर जा जा जा, कबूतर जा जा जा
उनसे कहना, जब से गये तुम मैं तो अधूरी लगती हूँ
इन होंठों पे चुप सी लगी है ना रोती ना हँसती हूँ
भूल हुई जो उन्हें सताया हो भूल हुई जो उन्हें सताया
कैसा पाप किया
कबूतर जा जा जा, कबूतर जा जा जा
Jumma Chumma De De (Movie: Hum)
This catchy, play-worthy, and a bit naughty song was way ahead of its time and will be counted as a forever hit. And because the lyrics, which Anand Bakshi pens, are so catchy, ‘Jumma Chumma De De’ is amongst popular Antakshari songs.
Kavita Krishnamurthy and Sudesh Bhonsle gave their voice to the lyrics, and it was filmed with Amitabh Bachchan and Kimi Katkar. Letter ‘J’ is quite a hard one to start a song from, but you can always get away with the lyrics mentioned below:
जुम्मा, जुम्मा जुम्मा जुम्मा जुम्मा जुम्मा जुम्मा
अरे ओ जुम्मा, मेरी जानेमन, बाहर निकल
आज जुम्मा है, आज का वादा है
देख मैं आ गया, तू भी जळी आ
मुझे मत और तड़पा
अरे तू बोली थी पिछले जुम्मे को
चुम्मा दूंगी अगले जुम्मे को
आज जुम्मा है तो आजा आजा
जुम्मा चुम्मा दे दे, जुम्मा चुम्मा दे दे चुम्मा
Neele Neele Ambar Par (Movie: Kalakaar)
Kishor Kumar’s soulful voice and artistic aura have made ‘Neele Neele Ambar Par’ a song to be played on repeat mode for ages. The song is from the movie Kalakaar, which was released in 1983.

प्यार बरसाए, हमको तरसाये
ऐसा कोई साथी हो
ऐसा कोई प्रेमी हो
प्यास दिल की बुझा जाए
नीले नीले …
Dil Ne Ye Kaha Hai Dil Se (Movie: Dhadkan)
Is there any Hindi Antakshari songs list that doesn’t include the ‘Dil Ne Yeh Kaha Hai Dil Se’ song?

It is the song that is most likely to hit your mind for the letter ‘D,’ and the lyrics go like this:
दिल ने ये कहा है दिल से
मोहब्बत हो गई है तुमसे

मेरा ऐतबार कर लो
जितना बेकरार हूँ मैं
खुद को बेकरार कर लो
मेरी धड़कनों को समझोतुम भी मुझसे प्यार कर लो
Pucho Zara Pucho (Movie: Raja Hindustani)
Another hit song from the movie ‘Raja Hindustani’ is undoubtedly among the most popular Antakshari songs. ‘Pucha Zara Pucho’ is beautifully sung by Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu, and the lyrics are penned by Sameer. The lyrics of this song are easy to remember, and the composition is quite catchy.
पूछो ज़रा पूछो, मुझे क्या हुआ है
कैसी बेकरारी है ये, कैसा नशा है
तुमसे, दिल, लगाने की सज़ा है
हाँ हाँ तुमसे, दिल लगाने की सज़ा है
रूठा है क्यों राजा, क्यों मुझसे खफा है
कैसी बेरूख़ी, है मेरे दिल को पता है
तुमसे, दिल, लगाने की सज़ा है
हाँ हाँ तुमसे, दिल लगाने की सज़ा है
Nanha Munna Raahi Hoon (Movie: Son Of India)
The song ‘Nanha Munna Rahi Hoon‘ from the movie ‘Son of India’ released in 1962 is a musical source to inspire and encourage the young with the spirit of patriotism.

Written by lyricist Shakeel Badayuni, this song was composed by composer Naushad, and singer Shanti Mathur has given his voice to it.
नन्हा मुन्ना राही हूँ, देश का सिपाही हूँ
बोलो मेरे संग, जय हिंद, जय हिंद, जय हिंद …
रस्ते पे चलूंगा न डर-डर के
चाहे मुझे जीना पड़े मर-मर के
मंज़िल से पहले ना लूंगा कहीं दम
आगे ही आगे बढ़ाउंगा कदम
दाहिने बाएं दाहिने बाएं, थम! नन्हा …
“Acha, To Ab Hum Chalte Hain..
Fir Kab Miloge?
Jab Tum Kahoge”
