Bollywood’s musical heritage is marked by iconic composers whose work spans decades and genres. R.D. Burman is celebrated for his energetic and timeless tunes that capture drama and camaraderie in classic films. The duo Jatin-Lalit defined 1990s Bollywood romance with memorable melodies, while A.R. Rahman’s compositions blend traditional and contemporary styles, evoking India’s colonial era. Films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001) feature music that reflects themes of love, family emotions, friendship, and dreams. Sandesh Shandilya and Shantanu Moitra contributed soulful and inspiring scores that complement these narratives. Together, these composers and their music have shaped Bollywood’s enduring appeal across generations. (Updated 28 Aug 2025, 04:31 IST; source: link)
