Songs and dances are an integral part of Bollywood. Our audiences love these songs, and hence our filmmakers invest a lot of money to make the song glamorous.
.Pyar Kiya Toh Darna Kya (Mughal-E-Azam) was the costliest song. Rupees 10 Lakhs were spent in the Year 1960. If we take into account the inflation and the value of the rupee it would be the costliest song ever made.
There were many Directors earlier and today who spend a lot on their Songs picturisation. Raj Kapoor, V Shantaram and Sanjay Leela Bhansali are few of them.
