Re: Non-musicals with a full-on musical number in the middle
That is the only Hindi movie I've seen, so if that is the case probably it shouldn't be on the list.

Now, if you are going to start including Hindi movies, almost each one of them has 5-6 songs.
For serious? I should start watching some Hindi movies.

I recall there being a single random flashmob style song and dance number in Shaolin Soccer.
Pretty sure it's cut out of the American/dubbed version, but it's in the Cantonese version (which is vastly superior).

Re: Non-musicals with a full-on musical number in the middle
First one I thought of is Hail Caesar, but that's cheating a little as they are filming a musical but other than that it fits perfectly.
That made me think of The French Mistake scene in Blazing Saddles, but no main cast members are in that, but it reminded me of the I'm Tired cabaret scene earlier in the film so this probably counts. Then I realised that Mel Brooks does this all the time. Men in Tights was mentioned, but there's also History of the World Pt 1 (Spanish Inquisition) and Young Frankenstein (Putting on the Ritz) and of course Springtime for Hitler in The Producers
Outside of Mel Brooks, Justin Timberlake and dancing girls lip sync to the Killers in Southland Tales, and I think I recall a big cast dance number in Clerks 2, but I suspect there wasn't any cast singing so both films probably don't.
Hocus Pocus? (I put a spell on you)
Knights of the Round Table in Holy Grail?
Always look on the bright side of life in Life of Brian? (Heads bobbing counts as dancing right?)
Gremlins 2? (New York New York)
Hudson Hawk ?(Swing on a Star)

In Rush Hour 3 in the middle there's a whole dance scene and then Jackie Chan comes from the ceiling and starts singing. This is the best clip I found! Also excuse me. This is my first ever reply and I've never attached anything so I hope this worked https://youtu.be/pnjCofDFlMs

Not really musical numbers, but several Aki Kaurismäki films include full songs performed live, relevant to the story or not...like Annikki Tähti in Man Without a Past or Melrose in Hamlet Goes Business.
