Kaisi Bechaini
Kyon Yeh Dil Hain Bekaraar
Saanson Main Khushi
Aankhon Main Nasha Hain Yaar
Seene Main Jo Dard Hain
Woh Kiski Amanat Hain
Aankhein Bhi Kyon Num Hain
Jab Dil Main Itni Chahat Hain
Yeh Pyar Nahi Toh Kya Hain Jaana
Kya Tumko Samjhana
Yeh Dil Ki Bataon Ka Hain Tarana
Yeh Tumne Na Jaana
Nass Nass Main Daude Hain Yeh Fasana
Na Tumne Pehchaana
Dard Yaha Dil Ko Bhi Paana
Kya Tumko Badlana 2
Saath Nahi Hain Tu
Par Tera Ehsaas Hain Jaga
Man Main Chabi Teri
Ab To Aaja Na Tadpa
Sulgi Sulgi Saansein Meri
Yeh Tera Intezar
Bolo Yeh Pyar Nahi Toh Kya Hain
Ab Karlo Tum Ikraar
Yeh Pyaar Nahi To Kya Hain Jaana
Kya Tumko Samjhana
Yeh Dil Ki Bataon Ka Hain Tarana
Yeh Tumne Na Jaana
Nass Nass Main Daude Hain Yeh Fasana
Na Tumne Pehchaana
Dard Yaha Dil Ko Bhi Paana
Kya Tumko Badlana 2
Yeh Pyaar Nahi To Kya Hain Jaana
Kya Tumko Badlana
Man Ki Uljhi Uljhi Baatein
Zubaan Tak Na Aayi
Samjhi Na Main Anjaani
Pyar Se Thi Main Begaani
(Yeh Pyar Nahi To Kya Hain Jaana
Kya Tumko Samjhana
Yeh Dil Ki Bataon Ka Hain Tarana
Yeh Tumne Na Jaana
Nass Nass Main Daude Hain Yeh Fasana
Na Tumne Pehchaana
Dard Yaha Dil Ko Bhi Paana
Kya Tumko Badlana 2) 2
