Top Bollywood stars who have sung for themselves

The era of actors like Talat Mahmood, Kishore Kumar, Suraiya and Noor Jehan, who were known for their playback singing, is long gone. Times have changed and so have stars. But the essence still remains the same. A number of actors, do attempt at singing for themselves, these days. And the list includes- Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi, Shraddha Kapoor and many others. They have all lent their voices to their tracks. And it is always a pleasure to hear your favourite actors sing for themselves!

Here are a few actors who have done playback for themselves:

Amitabh Bachchan

The megastar has sung many songs when his acting career was at its peak. From a slow romantic song like `Mai Yaha Tu Wahaan` (Baghbaan) to the peppy dance number `Rang Barse` from `Silsilaa`, Big B has done it all. `Bol Bachchan`, `Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham` and `Bhootnath` have been some other movies in which Sr. Bachchan has used his voice apart from his acting skills to woo the audiences.

`Badshaah` Khan sang his first song in his 2000 film `Josh`. The song titled `Apun Bola Tu Meri Laila` became a hit among the young generation and remained on top of the charts for a very long time.
