At the danger of seeming like one of those lastingly discontent oldies disapproving of everything new, I will concede that the Hindi film music scene isn't what it used to be.
In the past, even the dullest Bollywood motion picture gloated of appealing synthesis.
These days, it's fundamentally about exorbitantly computerized sounds or remixing works of art.
Given the situation, 2017 was shockingly not too bad.
Tunes of the soul, affectability, and spunk flew up more every now and again and offered comfort from uproarious garbage.
Here are 15 of my top choices from this year in no specific request.
