As India’s Nightingale Lata Mangeshkar turns 91 today, here is a list of a few songs with music composer AR Rahman that are mesmerising to the ear.

Today is the 91st birthday of legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar and Asianet Newsable lists five top songs that one must listen to note the powerful combination of Oscar winner AR Rahman and Lata Mangeshkar.

Jiye Jale from Dil Se in 1998:  The song Jiye Jale featuring Preity Zinta became a smashing hit and her voice is like slow poison. Every time you hear it the more you are consumed by it. In every live concert, Rahman includes this song in the setlist.

Khamoshiyan Gungunane Lagi:  Khamoshiyan Gungunane Lagi is another number from One 2 Ka 4, a thriller released in 2001. The song features Juhi Chawla and Shah Rukh Khan.

The film did not make much noise. The only talking point was AR Rahman's music and the voice of legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar.

Ek Tu Hi Bharosa is a song from Nation Award-winning film Pukar: The song takes the listeners into meditation mode. The music composer has captured the listener's attention by using the skilled singer's voice.
 

Pyaara Sa Gaon song from Zubeidaa featuring Karishma Kapoor is another landmark song in the career of AR Rahman. The song gives people a dose of village life and its beauty. This is nothing short of a lullaby.
 

Lukka Chuppi from Rang De Basanti: The Indian cult film Rang De Basanti 2006 redefined patriotism and inculcated the feeling of Indianness through characters that were rebellious in nature. Music is one of the major highlights. Lata Mangeshkar's Lukka Chuppi song is one among favourites of AR Rahman and also features this in every tour and concert.
