I know, I know, there’s some threads on this already but most of them are old.
Any ideas?
So far, all I know is:
Mayoun - “Sawar Loon” from Lutera
Mehndi - something typical Pakistani/punjabi and upbeat…
I’m thinking of having fiance walk into “jis din mera viya” or “tera hero idhaar hai”
Entrance to nikkah - I want something dramatic with a slower beat…debating between
“Jhoom” by ali zafar
“Chalte Chalte” from Pakeezah (anyone have a faster version…?)
“mein Tenu samjhawan Ki” (the rahat fateh ali khan version…but I don’t know if that’s too depressing…)
After nikkah - “tum jo aaye zindagi mein” or “ek din aap yun” (I kind of was thinking of this for before the nikkah instead)
I really like “tum jo aaye” but the whole “ishq mazaab , ishq meri zaat” part is kinda bothering me…i don’t think they literally mean it’s their religion but my fiance’s fam is pretty religious and I don’t know if it’ll ruffle feathers…input?
eeep any ideas? Like I said, I want something more traditional punjabi for the mehndi/mayoun (think shazia mansoor or musarrat nazeer) and then something dramatic and slow-ish that would be good for an entrance for the nikkah ceremony. For after the nikkah, fiance and I will walk in together so something cutesy but not walima-ish necessarily (nothing TOO fast or upbeat…still romantic).
PLEASE PLEASE nothing like “teri ore” or “tum hi ho” or the same 3 songs that everyone’s been walking into.
Mehndi ni mehndi- mussarat nazir (love this)
Mehndi ki raat- (think it was that girl band models)
Rang layi teri mehndi- rahim shah
Mehndi ki yeh raat- jawaad ahmed
Mehndi hai rachne waali- zubeida (film)
Wedding day an instrumental would be nice i walked in on "its life- Niraj Chag"
Jashne bahaara is another cute one
Rukhsati time i chose one by Fariha Parvez called Maye, even my videographer was like it was njce to see one from a mothers view point!
Songs you could do together erm
Saiyaara- ek tha tiger
Mehrbaan- bang bang
Jeene lagaa hoon
My minds gone blank! Lol will think of some more and reply!

Thank you! What do you think of either " Jhoom" or "chalte chalte" by Pakeezah?? I've always wanted something like that but I don't know if it's too cheesy!
I like Subhanallah from YJHD but it might be too fast for pre-nikkah
ok totally off topic: I went to a some family friend's wedding in pakistan long time ago like 2006 or so and their DJ was playing 'Smack that' in Barat. I was so embarrassed but I guess people didn't know the meaning of the song
Chalte Chalte is ADORABLE...i wanted that for my own walk-in but didn't happen.
Jhoom is good for a brides walk in. I like Kabira from Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani as well for girls entrance on mehndi. My cousin did this song, i think it's called jaise banjaray ko ghar on her walima...it was cute.

hahaha. Not quite as bad, but at my cousin's wedding in Pakistan, the DJ played "Ya Ali" from Gangster on repeat for more than an hour. I can't listen to that song ever again. :S

Kabira the faster one, right? I always thought it was more of a ruksati song but I like it too. I REALLY like Chalte Chalte but I'm trying to see if there's a more modern version/better quality audio of it so it doesn't sound as "grainy".
the banjary ko ghar song. LOVE IT. I had heard it but had forgotten about it. It's slow enough where I wonder if that'll work for my entrance for the nikkah...
I like "mein tenu samjhawan ki"...there's just something about Punjabi songs. I don't know if it's actually too depressing though.
Tenu samjha va ki i think is more of a being apart from your loved one song kinda like Teri Meri js actually a sad song but people still chose to play it!
Kabira is lovely! That would be really cute <3
Chalte chalte is a classic and im sure itl be something different ive not seen it done yet!

Yeah I like the whole cutesy meaning with chalte chalte. And I agree about "tenu samjha va"...the lyrics seem kind of sad...I think I'm going to end up going with either Jhoom (which I haven't heard here actually) or Chalte Chalte.
I REALLY REALLY like "tum jo aaye" but it might be too quick for the prenikkah entrance. Someone suggested the rahat ali khan version but I just like the female one a lot more.
