Dil Chahta Hai

The title track is sung by Shankar Mahadevan and Clinton Cerejo. The song is intricately woven into the plot to echo the thoughts of the lead characters. In the song, the three friends take a road trip to Goa. Their trip without a concrete plan not only mirrors the aimlessness of the young but also kindles wanderlust.

Tanhayee

Tanhayee translates to loneliness. In the film, Akash (Aamir Khan) learns that Shalini (Preity Zinta) is returning to India for her wedding and both of them know that she does not love her fiance Rohit (Ayub Khan). After she leaves, Akash is hit by unbearable loneliness that makes him feel like he is staring into the abyss of darkness. The song is sung by none other than Sonu Nigam.
