Following the path of Ashwin, I thought I could easily make a “Top 100 Hindi movies to watch before you die”. But then I realized there are many pending movies like Taare Zameen Par or rather my recommended wish list of Hindi Movies, which I haven’t watched yet. So I am now listing only the selected movies that I have watched and loved watching it.
There are some famous films which have not made to this list like Rang De Basanti, or Lagaan or Hum Tum etc. They are kinda good movies, but to be true at heart, I won’t mind giving them a pass, if not for the hype it created. There are some movies which can be good entertainers and huge hits in Bollywood, but the scripts or themes of such were not like extra-ordinary. So I haven’t included them also.
The list is NOT in any rank basis or in any particular order. So here it is.
- Anand
- Devdas
- Chak De India
- Dil Chahta Hai
- Page3
- Corporate
- Chandni Bar
- Mitr – My Friend
- Phir Milenge
- My Brother Nikhil
- Don – The chase begins again
- Munnabhai MBBS
- Satyam Shivam Sundaram
- Amar Prem
- Life In A Metro
- Black
- Karz
- Lakshya
- Mera Naam Joker
- Swades
