3. Masakali (2009)One of the quirkiest and spicy tracks which perfectly conveys an Old Delhi flavour is this written from Rakesh Omprakash Mehra’s Delhi-6. Chauhan sings the track with great playfulness and enthuses a sprightly quality to the lyrics by Prasoon Joshi. The music was composed by A.R. Rahman.

4. Sadda Haq (2011)The song became the anthem for the youth when it was released with the soundtrack of the Imtiaz Ali film Rockstar, composed by A.R. Rahman. The catchy notes of the song were penned by Irshad Kamil. Chauhan, who is usually known for his soothing vocals, gives a rousing vocal performance for this powerful rock song which is a protest against societal and familial suppression of the individual talent.
