Bollywood songs quiz by decade of the film
A good Bollywood songs quiz mixes eras, because a Bollywood songs quiz that stays in one decade bores half the room, so that every guest knows some of the answers. Here is how the 70 songs in this quiz are spread across the decades of their films, which helps you decide whether to add more classics or more recent hits:
| Decade of the film | Songs | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| 1960s | 2 | Mere Sapno Ki Rani, Lag Jaa Gale |
| 1970s | 4 | Yeh Dosti, Mehbooba Mehbooba, Chura Liya Hai Tumne, Dum Maro Dum |
| 1980s | 1 | Ek Do Teen |
| 1990s | 8 | Tujhe Dekha To, Mehndi Laga Ke Rakhna, Chaiyya Chaiyya, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Koi Mil Gaya |
| 2000s | 16 | Bole Chudiyan, Say Shava Shava, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Maahi Ve, Dola Re Dola |
| 2010s | 32 | Tum Hi Ho, Munni Badnaam Hui, Sheila Ki Jawani, Chammak Challo, Balam Pichkari |
| 2020s | 7 | Raataan Lambiyan, Kesariya, Jhoome Jo Pathaan, Chaleya, What Jhumka? |
The 2010s have the most songs, which suits a younger crowd. For a group of parents and grandparents, add a few more songs from the 1960s and 1970s, such as the ones from Guide, Pakeezah and Chupke Chupke.
