Punjabi Wedding Songs — The Sangeet and Baraat Playlist

A Punjabi wedding playlist has to work in three different rooms. The sangeet, where people are already dancing and you only have to keep them there.

Updated 11 entries
Our top pick

Number one on this list is Laung Laachi — The title track of the 2018 film Laung Laachi, sung by Mannat Noor, and one of the most-watched Punjabi songs on YouTube. See why, plus 10 more →

The baraat, where the track has to survive a street, a dhol and a speaker on a trolley. And the reception, where half the guest list does not speak Punjabi and still needs a chorus it can shout. The songs below cover all three. Some are decades old and still get the loudest reaction of the night; others are recent film tracks that a whole generation learned the steps to on a phone screen. They are ordered by YouTube views on the uploads we track, so the order reflects what people actually play most; the one song we do not track yet sits last.

The full ranking — 11 picks

  1. Laung Laachi Rank 1

    Laung Laachi

    Mannat Noor

    The title track of the 2018 film Laung Laachi, sung by Mannat Noor, and one of the most-watched Punjabi songs on YouTube. It is slower than most of this list, so it belongs to the entry, the couple's walk-in or the first dance rather than the middle of the sangeet block.

  2. High Rated Gabru Rank 2

    High Rated Gabru

    Guru Randhawa

    Guru Randhawa's 2017 single, and one of the safest picks on any sangeet playlist. The tempo suits people who cannot really dance, and the chant-along hook does the rest. It is the song guests request when they cannot remember the name of the song they actually wanted.

  3. Kala Chashma Rank 3

    Kala Chashma

    Amar Arshi / Badshah, Neha Kakkar

    Amar Arshi recorded the Punjabi original; the 2016 Baar Baar Dekho version with Badshah, Neha Kakkar and Indeep Bakshi is the one every DJ plays. It has become a set piece rather than a song — the moment the sunglasses come out. It fills a floor at any Indian wedding, Punjabi or not.

  4. Naah Rank 4

    Naah

    Harrdy Sandhu

    Harrdy Sandhu with music by B Praak and words by Jaani, the writing-and-producing pair behind a large share of modern Punjabi hits. Light, flirtatious, and easy to dance to badly — which is most of what a sangeet actually needs from a song.

  5. Morni Banke Rank 5

    Morni Banke

    Guru Randhawa, Neha Kakkar

    Guru Randhawa and Neha Kakkar's track from Badhaai Ho, built on an old folk image — a bride who walks like a peacock. It sits in the sweet spot for weddings: fast enough for the dance floor, familiar enough that the Hindi-speaking half of the guest list already knows the chorus.

  6. Tunak Tunak Tun Rank 6

    Tunak Tunak Tun

    Daler Mehndi

    Daler Mehndi's 1998 single, whose video — Mehndi cloned four times against a green screen — became an internet meme years after release. That double life is exactly why it works at a wedding: the older guests know it as a hit, the younger ones know it as a joke, and both dance.

  7. Suit Suit Rank 7

    Suit Suit

    Guru Randhawa, Arjun

    Guru Randhawa's 'Suit' reworked with Arjun for Hindi Medium. Mid-tempo, which makes it a useful bridge between the fast bhangra block and the slower couple songs — worth knowing if you are the person actually sequencing the night rather than just shouting requests at the DJ.

  8. Lak Twenty Eight Kudi Da Rank 8

    Lak Twenty Eight Kudi Da

    Diljit Dosanjh, Yo Yo Honey Singh

    Diljit Dosanjh with Yo Yo Honey Singh, from 2011 — the stretch when Punjabi club music first went fully mainstream across India. Blunt, fast and mixed for a stack of speakers rather than headphones. This is baraat music, not first-dance music, and it should be used that way.

  9. Angreji Beat Rank 9

    Angreji Beat

    Gippy Grewal, Yo Yo Honey Singh

    From Honey Singh's International Villager era in 2011, with Gippy Grewal on vocals. It was one of the tracks that made Punjabi club production unavoidable at Indian weddings, and it still works because the drop announces itself to people who have never heard the song before.

  10. Gur Nalo Ishq Mitha Rank 10

    Gur Nalo Ishq Mitha

    Malkit Singh

    A bhangra standard that has outlived every trend since. Malkit Singh's version is the one the older guests know by heart, and Bally Sagoo's remix carried it into UK clubs in the 1990s. Put it on early — for the jaago or the first half of the sangeet — and the aunties will beat everyone else to the floor.

  11. Rank 11

    Sadi Gali

    Lehmber Hussainpuri

    From Tanu Weds Manu, sung by Lehmber Hussainpuri — a Punjabi folk voice dropped into a Hindi film soundtrack, which is precisely why it works at a mixed wedding. The hook is simple enough that guests who speak no Punjabi are shouting it back by the second chorus. A reliable opener.
