This film is an adaptation of Metro Manila which was released
a year before. I won't compare these two cause culture wise the situations and
tackling them is always different.
36. Veer Zaara (2004)
Director: Yash Chopra.
Any SRK lovers here? Then it's a do-not-miss movie. Love

Who can forget Detective Byomkesh Bakshi (played by Rajit

Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay made this true by not failing on
his work on Detective Byomkesh Bakshy of 2015 (played by talented Sushant Singh

This leads to the bigger conspiracy in
Calcutta and how he handles the situations and unravels mysteries that is what
you are going to see.

Director: Sharat Katariya.
I think this is a story of every middle-class Indian which
is depicted in a humorous way and succeeded. The story revolves around Prem (
Ayushmann Khurrana) and his oversized wife Sandhya (Bhumi Pednekar) whose arrange
marriage turns out to be a mismatch.
Do they lead their life as it is or they try to balance

mismatch? Find out. Its a must watch comedy movie with your family and friends.

their stories. One of them gets engaged, so they decide to turn their fantasy

movie gives a glimpse of life situations.
Zoya Akhtar collected some talented cast and made justice
to them by giving them each their space.
31. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995)
Director: Aditya Chopra.
The movie which made SRK a romantic God in Indian cinema.
The movie that became the heartthrob of youngsters and a milestone. The tag
line of the movie "when Raj (SRK) meets Simran (Kajol)" and then we
have the epic masterpiece in front of us.
The story is about how Raj crosses 2 seas and reach India
to win back Simran and at the same time win the hearts of Simran's family. Will

30. Darr (1993)
Director: Yash Chopra.
The turning point in Shah Rukh Khan's film career. Story of a
girl Kiran or Kkkkiran (Juhi Chawla) who become an obsession with Rahul (SRK).

depicted beautifully by Yash Chopra.

An epic saga that faced many controversies until its
release. The film is based on commitment and valor of Rajputs. The movie shows
Sultan Allauddin Khilji's (Ranveer Singh) obsession with Rani Padmavati

28. Piku (2015)
Director: Shoojit Sircar.
A bizarre comedy showing relationship between a daughter

situations. If you are looking for light comedy, awesome acting with limited
actors, feel-good movie then go for it without any second thoughts.
27. Jodhaa Akbar (2008)
Director: Ashutosh Gowariker.
Ashutosh is known for giving his audiences movies which

alliance. How love blossomed gradually between the two.
Akbar won the allegiance of the Rajputs by marrying Jodha,

The word "family" signifies love, care,
compromise, sacrifice and much more. Every person in the family has something
to say, are they ready to take it. The situations will make you wonder what next?
The character Daddu played by Rishi Kapoor is like cool breeze of air in tensed
situations. Alia played her part very well.

22. Jab We Met (2007)
Director: Imtiaz Ali.
One of the best pieces of work from director Imtiaz Ali. A
dejected wealthy businessman Aditya (Shahid Kapur) failed in love and depressed
by his father's demise boarded a train to go nowhere (what a gloomy and slow
story, isn't it), but just then the whole thing changes when energetic, full of

handle it? What happens to them? Will they happily live after?
20. Hindi Medium (2017)
Director: Saket Chaudhary.
Another piece of work carried out by protagonist Irfan
Khan brilliantly. This movie is a must-watch for parents who struggle for their
kids so their kids study in posh school full of English environment, and what
sacrifices parents make for the sake of their children.
A couple from Chandni Chowk, old Delhi desires best
education for their daughter, so they move to post locality to mingle with high
society crowd. This film is an eye-opener for those parents who tend to take an
artificial life just for the sake of what society wants, not what they want and
their children.
19. 102 Not Out (2018)
Director: Umesh Shukla.
This comedy-drama focuses on 2 characters, an old man of
102 years old played by the legend Amitabh Bachchan who is determined to break
the oldest-man-alive record and another legend Rishi Kapoor who plays a role of
sad and grumpy old man of 75 years old, who also happens to be the son of
Dattatraya Vakharia (Amitabh Bachchan).
Dattatraya wants to break the record of a Chinese man who
holds the record of the oldest person living on earth, but he believes living
with old and boring son won't make this possible. Full-on fun and entertainment
between old son and young father.
18. Raazi (2018)
Director: Meghna Gulzar.
The story of Kashmiri girl Sehmat (Alia Bhatt) who goes
undercover and marry a Pakistani officer in order to spy on Pakistan army
activities during the Indo-Pak war of 1971.
Sehmat's father is a son of a freedom fighter and also an undercover
agent. He wants Sehmat to carry forward the legacy of his family and become an
agent.
The movie is gripping in every situation, all actors
played their part with honesty. The film is to the point, no scenes will make
you feel that it is dragging. The movie gives you the idea of conditions of war
times.
17. Karwaan (2018)
Director: Akarsh Khurana.
Just comedy and beautiful drama framed by 3 people who
took the road trip from Bangalore to Kochi.
I always loved watching road trip movies be it Bombay to
Goa, Piku or any other movies. Karwaan is added to my most favorites list. This
movie has situational comedy as well as punchline humor (we have Irfan Khan to
fulfill this deed).
In short, the film will really give you a road trip from
beginning till the end and leave you with emotions and laughs.
16. K.G.F: Chapter 1 (2018)
Director: Prashanth Neel.
Breaking the rules of typical Bollywood theme, this movie
is 10/10, where every part of emotion, laugh, walk and even flying dust picturized
diligently.
The story of a savage rebel who rises against the barbaric
oppression and becomes the symbol of hope to oppressed people. The best part is
the narration of the story. The expression of storyteller and listener is
priceless. I am eagerly waiting for Chapter 2. In short, this movie is
originality at its best.
15. Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015)
Director: Kabir Khan.
A feel-good movie which shows the cute and healthy bond
between a hardcore follower of Shri Hanuman Pawan (Salman Khan) and a young
mute Pakistani girl Munni (Harshali) and his oath of taking back girl to her
homeland to reunite with her family.
Some situations in this movie are really hilarious that
don't need any dialogues to describe it. Like Munni does not like eating vegetables
as this what she gets to eat being in Brahmin Hindu family, but she goes to
neighbor's house and finishes biryani, hence solving the question that Munni is
Muslim.
14. Gol Maal (1979)
Director: Hrishikesh Mukherjee.
A simple man lies for the sake of his job, but the situation gets complicated when he falls for his boss's daughter thus making
his boss skeptical.
This movie is beyond introduction and reviews. Let me put
this way Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Amol Palekar, Utpal Dutt what else you need. You
make them sit in a room with nothing, there comes another timeless comedy
classic.
Amol and Utpal Dutt were famous for making people laugh
with simple words and their best comic timing. I bet this timeless classic will
event make the next 100th generation laugh. While watching movie either you

honest police office and revenge. After this duo, Amitabh and Prakash Mehra gave
many hits.

characters. Movie like this was never made again. The duo
Salim-Javed gave their best work in this film.
10. Lagaan (2001)
Director: Ashutosh Gowariker.
In India, the people of a small village under British rule
stage their future on a game of cricket against British rulers.
Does anyone remember "teen guna lagaan dena
padega." India is a place where people eat cricket, sleep cricket and
worship cricket. You can guess that by looking at the timeline of the movie.
half of the movie showed cricket match between Indian villagers and Britishers.
Man, this cricket match was between the 2 mismatches. Your keenness grows when
you know what is at stake.
I am not much of a fan of cricket, but the cricket
match in this movie glued me to the seat until the end. This movie was
nominated for Oscars.

Director: Rajkumar Hirani.
Two settled friends (Madhavan, Sharman) are searching for
their long lost friend Rancho (Amir Khan). While searching for him they revisit
their college days and recollect the memories of their friend who inspired them

Yes, that is what needed for today's generation. Not only
children, but their parents also need to understand that opportunities never
dies, there is a world beyond engineers and doctors. What's the point of doing
something in which you are not interested and your heart is somewhere else. The
film delivers the message perfectly.
8. Mother India (1957)
