- Bollywood songs (often termed filmi songs or Hindi songs but written in Urdu poetry) are heard far beyond the borders of India. The lines of Bollywood songs are some of the most memorized and repeated expressions in India. Yet, since Bollywood has not been considered formal literature, the lyrics of the Bollywood songs have not been studied in an academic setting. The language of the filmi songs, generally termed Hindi, can be complex. It is called Hindi in India but is termed Urdu in Pakistan. Most of them are easily understood by anyone in the Indian subcontinent. Some songs are saturated with Persian terms, sometimes in shuddha Hindi. It is not uncommon now to see usage of English words. Several dialects have been used: Braj, Bhojpuri, Punjabi, Rajasthani. Occasionally a few lines in another Indian language. The lyrics are both modern and traditional.
