from Wikipedia:
"Chaiyya Chaiyya" (Hindi: छैया छैया, Urdu: چیّا چیّا) is the first song in the famous Hindi film Dil Se directed by Mani Ratnam. The song was composed by film composer A. R. Rahman. It became popular quickly upon release and its music video gained the same status, partly because it was filmed on a moving train. The song was called Thaiyya Thaiyya in the Tamil version of the film.
"Chaiyya Chaiyya" not only reached the charts in India, but also became popular in England.
The song is sung in Urdu by Sukhwinder Singh and Sapna Awasthi. However, there is an English translation available at BollyWhat. It is featured in the opening of the second act of the musical Bombay Dreams. Remixes of the song were used in the opening and closing credits of the 2006 film, Inside Man, directed by Spike Lee. The opening credits have the original version by A.R. Rahman with additional trumpet accompaniment and the closing credits feature a hip-hop-inflected remix featuring Punjabi MC (Chaiyya Chaiyya Bollywood Joint).
The song was also featured in the pilot episode of the television show Smith.
Dil Se is famous for its visually stunning music videos. Because of this, "Chaiyya Chaiyya" characterizes this genre. The video itself was filmed on top of the Ooty train in mountainous southern India while actor Shah Rukh Khan dances with Malaika Arora and other dancers. Along with the thrill of dancing atop a moving train, the scenery around the train is equally stunning and beautiful. The cinematography of the film was handled by Santosh Sivan.
OMG everyone needs to listen to this mp3 RIGHT NOW!
