Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani

Jab We Met
NGL, Geeta stole our hearts ever since she appeared on our screens for the first time. It was her bubbly personality, candour and innocence that made us fall in love with her, and Aditya was no exception. The story took us on an emotional journey with two contrasting characters, who were equal parts calm and crazy. This snug and heart-warming love story is relatable even today, and that’s why this movie will always have a special place in our hearts.
Kal Ho Na Ho
This one definitely feels like a comforting bowl of warm soup. It explores emotions of unbridled joy and selfless love and has enough and more to keep us gripped to the dramatic storyline. Not only will it leave you in splits with its tangled love story, but will have you reaching for a box of tissues during its heartbreaking climax.
Band Baaja Baaraat
We entirely blame Bittoo for bringing the word ‘bijness’ into our everyday vocab. However, we’ll forgive him because he’s so damn adorable! Band Baaja Baaraat will defs go down in the hall of fame of romantic movies due to its energetic yet compassionate love story between Shruti and Bittoo. Get on a romantic rollercoaster, as these two start off as business partners, become rivals of the same trade and eventually, fall in love!
Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge
This movie will for sure strike a chord with your inner romantic, regardless of what generation you belong to. A flawless Indian fairytale that sets the standards of romance for years to come, it is what it is because of its incredible romantic plot-line. The story revolves around two Indians, Raj and Simaran, who discover what love truly is far away from home. And throw into this mix an overprotective father who stands against the two love birds, and we’ve got ourselves a winner! This movie will tug at your heartstrings, making you weep and chuckle, while rooting for Simran to break away from her father’s shackles.
So, are you all set for your weekend movie binge? Well, regardless of what movie you choose, we’re sure you’re in for a good time.
