30 Best Bollywood Karaoke Songs to Sing in 2026

12 June 2026 · 7 min read

The best karaoke night isn’t about the perfect voice — it’s about the song everyone in the room already knows. Bollywood is built for exactly that: huge sing-along hooks, melodies that have soundtracked weddings and road trips for decades, and verses you can shout even when you forget the words. Here are 30 of the most reliable crowd-pleasers, sorted by mood so you can build a set that actually lands.

Every song below is one you can pull up in seconds — just search the title and the synced lyrics light up line by line.

Easy classics (great for beginners)

Start here if you’re warming up the room or you’re a nervous first-timer. These sit in a comfortable range and almost everyone can carry the tune.

• “Tum Hi Ho” — Arijit Singh (slow, forgiving, universally known)
• “Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas” — Kishore Kumar
• “Lag Jaa Gale” — Lata Mangeshkar
• “Kabhi Kabhie Mere Dil Mein” — Mukesh
• “Raabta” — Arijit Singh
• “Tujhe Dekha To” — DDLJ

Romantic duets (grab a partner)

Duets take the pressure off — you each carry half — and the call-and-response is half the fun. Perfect for couples or two friends who’ll happily ham it up.

• “Tum Se Hi” — Jab We Met
• “Pehla Nasha” — Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar
• “Gerua” — Dilwale
• “Janam Janam” — Dilwale
• “Soch Na Sake” — Airlift
• “Agar Tum Saath Ho” — Tamasha

High-energy dance numbers (peak of the night)

When the room is warmed up, switch to the ones people physically can’t sit still through. Don’t worry about hitting every note — momentum beats accuracy here.

• “Kala Chashma” — Baar Baar Dekho
• “Badtameez Dil” — Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
• “London Thumakda” — Queen
• “Nagada Sang Dhol” — Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela
• “Malhari” — Bajirao Mastani
• “Aankh Marey” — Simmba

Retro & golden-era crowd-pleasers

Never underestimate the older crowd — these turn a quiet room into a chorus instantly.

• “Mere Sapno Ki Rani” — Kishore Kumar
• “Roop Tera Mastana” — Kishore Kumar
• “Yeh Shaam Mastani” — Kishore Kumar
• “Chura Liya Hai Tumne” — Yaadon Ki Baaraat
• “Ek Ajnabee Haseena Se” — Rajesh Khanna
• “Dum Maro Dum” — Hare Rama Hare Krishna

Modern hits everyone already knows

• “Kesariya” — Brahmastra
• “Apna Bana Le” — Bhediya
• “Maan Meri Jaan” — King
• “Heeriye” — Jasleen Royal
• “Chaleya” — Jawan
• “O Maahi” — Dunki

How to pick the right one for your voice

A quick rule: if you can comfortably hum the chorus in the car, you can sing it at karaoke. Avoid songs that live at the very top of a singer’s range (most Arijit high notes, for example) unless you’re confident — pick the verse-driven tracks instead. And when in doubt, choose the song the room knows over the one that shows off your voice.
