1. Cocktail (2012)

If you are a fan of ‘Cocktail 2’, then it is worth watching its original part again. ‘Cocktail’, released in 2012, completely changed the definition of modern relationships in Bollywood. In this film directed by Homi Adajania, the trio of Saif Ali Khan (Gautam), Deepika Padukone (Veronica) and Diana Penty (Meera) did wonders.

2. Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013)

If you are looking for a film that will give you a new perspective on living life, then nothing can be better than Ayan Mukherjee’s ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’. This film starring Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapur and Kalki Koechlin has become a cult classic for today’s generation. The combination of Kabir’s (Bunny’s) desire to fly and Naina’s simplicity makes the audience emotional.

3. Dil Dhadakne Do (2015)

Zoya Akhtar’s films always peel back the layers of human relationships very delicately. ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ is the story of the Mehra family on a cruise, which looks perfect from outside, but inside everyone is struggling with their life and relationships. Starring stars like Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra, Anushka Sharma and Farhan Akhtar, this film shows the hollow marriages of urban society, parental pressure and the search for love in a very light but effective manner.

4. Tamasha (2015)

Imtiaz Ali’s films knock directly on the heart. ‘Tamasha’ is not just a love story, but it is the story of a man (Ved) getting himself lost in the patterns created by the society. The on-screen chemistry of Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone had taken this film to a different level. Starting from the beautiful valleys of Corsica, this journey reaches the bitter truth of corporate life in Delhi.

5. Baar Baar Dekho (2016)

Sidharth Malhotra and Katrina Kaif starrer ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ may have seemed a bit complicated to the audience at the time of its release, but in today’s time the relevance of this film has increased a lot. The story of the film revolves around time travel, where the hero realizes his mistakes by going to the future. This film of ‘Kaala Chashma’ fame teaches us that in the rush of career, we often leave behind the people who mean the most to us.

6. Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (2016)

Directed by Karan Johar, ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ is a beautiful story of love, friendship and heartbreak. This film starring Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan created a stir at the box office. ‘There is passion in love, but there is peace in friendship…’ This dialogue of the film tells the essence of the entire story.

7. Love Aaj Kal (2009)

Imtiaz Ali’s another masterpiece ‘Love Aaj Kal’ (Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer) had shown that even if times change, the feeling of love never changes. On one side in the film, there is a modern couple of 2009 who tries to remain friends even after the breakup, and on the other side, there is an old era of 1965 where one had to wait for hours just to get a glimpse.

8. Barfi (2012)

‘Barfi!’ directed by Anurag Basu! It is such a priceless gem of Indian cinema, which touches the deepest strings of the heart even without saying anything. Starring Ranbir Kapoor (Barfi), Priyanka Chopra (Jhilmil) and Ileana D’Cruz (Shruti), this film is a wonderful example of love, sacrifice and innocence.
