You can play Bollywood songs on the piano if you know how to read music.
Here are some steps that will help you learn how to play Bollywood songs on piano:
First, there is a song called Pardesi which was composed by the late Abhijeet Sawant and it is very popular in India. You can use this song as a base for learning Hindi or any other Indian language because it has a similar rhythm pattern.
Second, there is also a song called Humse Badnaam Tere from the movie Prem Kahaniyaan which has been sung by Alka Yagnik and Tulsi Kumar and it goes like this: “Kuch humse badnaam tere”, “Humko kahte hain dosto” etc. You can also try learning these two songs as well as some others from movies of your choice.
Third, there are many other Bollywood songs that have been popular in India but I am not sure about their English translation so please let me know if you want me to write down any of them for you so that you can understand them better!
Finally, once you have learned these three basic Hindi songs, then it’s time to start practicing! Play all three at the same time and try listening to what they sound like while reading the lyrics on-screen or even singing along with them using an audio recording app such as SoundHound or Shazam. This will help improve your musical knowledge and develop your ear too! Then just pick one song from each category i.e Pardesi, Humse Badnaam Tere, and more from Movies of your choice, and practice those until they become second nature to you (like breathing).
