Chaiyya Chaiyya
Good grief watch all six and a half minutes of this music video:
"Chaiyya Chaiyya" from Mani Atman's 1998 Bollywood film Dil Se, composed by AR Rahman, acted by Shah Rukh Khan and Malaika Arora Khan (no relation), sung by Sukhwinder Singh and Sapna Awasthi, and filmed on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway near Ooty, in southwestern Tamil Nadu.
In testament to Bollywood fandom's unrivaled demographic weight, Chaiyya Chaiyya was voted the 9th greatest song of all time in a BBC poll which registered six of the top ten songs as coming from the subcontinent.
Take special note of 'King Khan' Shah Rukh slo-mo headbanging his late 90s mop-top at 0:56 and 5:42.
