Top 10 must see flicks in my book.

Folks, these are some of my favourite movies. If you haven't seen any of them, they are higly recommended. 

1.] Andaz Apna Apna
This is a cult classic and probably #1 on many people's list. Words cant explain how funny this movie is. I have watched this movie like a zillion times and it still cracks me up. :)
My Fav Part: The climax. Teja mai hu, mark idhar hai :)

2.] Dil Chahata Hai
Another cult classic. Not only were the characters amazing but Farhan showed us his brilliance behind the camera.
My Fav Part: The part after Koi kahe song, where Aamir gets a black eye.

3.] Swades
One of my all time favourites which really got me to think.
My Fav Part: SRK's journey to the poor man's village and the song, yeh jo des hai tera.

4.] Khiladi
A cool campus flick with a murder mystery. This film marked the entry of Akshay Kumar and Abbas-Mustan
My Fav Part: Post interval portions of solving the mystery

5.] Jab We Met
One of the best romantic comedies I have seen. Such an irony of life that Shahid and Kareena broke up during this movie.
My fav Part: Kareena's blabbering and the song Tum se Hi.

6.] Hera Pheri
Out right hilarious. I remember this film was publicised as a thriller/murder mystery. But it turned out to be a laugh riot.
My Fav Part: When the trio are fighting and Baburao gets hit by a coconut.

7.] Mr. India
Probably India's first Sci-Fi flick and pulled of brilliantly by Shekhar Kapur. 
My Fav Part: When Mr. India makes Teja eat pulses with stones mixed in them.

8.] Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na
A cliched campus flick story told with a difference. This movie shows that the story is as good as its story-teller.
My Fav Part: When Jai finds out Aditi is engaged and meets her fiance.

9.] Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikandar
A classical movie where the characters were inspired straight out of the Archie comics.
My Fav Part: The cycle races.

10.] Samay & Gupt
A tie at the 10th spot for 2 of the finest suspense dramas. Gupt was more commercial and its also the only Bobby Deol movie that I have ever liked. Samay is a fantabulous movie where the clues to unfold the mystery are much more mesmerizing than the actual mystery murderer.
My Fav Part: (Gupt) When Bobby Deol finds out that his step father is murdered. (Samay) The clues unfolding .

  2. I would definately have RDB, Satya, Lagaan, and some classics from 60s and 70s. Nevertheless this is a pretty good list
