Vani at white phosphorous has written an interesting post on Hindi songs with wacky lyrics. Post listed some Hindi famous songs which dont deserve to be hits. Those songs never made any sense lyrically.

So having experience of writing bollywood movie lyrics, let me give you few tip how to write a super hit song.

• No experience needed for writing a song, compose background music for it.

Lyricist picked up it from orkut scraps.
