The?coronavirus outbreak?has created a lot of problems.?
The one we are going to address today is less pressing but has led to quite a disruption in our otherwise happening lives- the fact that many of us have a lot more free time on our hands. And most of us don't know what to do with. But that's why there are movies to fall back on. Films that can cheer us up, lift our moods and give us an escape from our otherwise mundane and isolated lives. Scroll below, choose a couple of these films that catches your fancy and let the binge-watch commence.
When you have Zoya Akhtar directing the film and Ranveer Singh with Alia Bhatt in the lead, you can rest assured the acting will be top class. But Gully Boy emerges as a real winner because of how humane the story is. Every character hits home making you or just anyone relate with them. It's also a story about dreams coming true and that's the kind of motivation we all need right now.?
?Jab We Met might have released in 2007 but in 2020 we are still recommending you to watch it. That just goes onto show that not only is this film brilliant but has created a soft spot in the hearts of the audience. Kareena Kapoor Khan's portrayal of Geet, a girl full of life and high on energy is exactly the kind of heroine we need to see more of right now.?
Thanks to coronavirus, none of us can get onto a flight and enjoy Spain. So might as well let Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara take you there. Gorgeous landscapes, stellar cast, and a story you will never forget. Watch now and let the world wonder where you were for those 3 hours! If you ask us, you should say 'paradise'.?
Celebrate, dance, fight, reunite and most importantly discover yourself, all while watching this family comedy-drama. For those who had plans of traveling to Europe, let Dil Dhadakne Do take you there, even if it's for a handful of hours. It's better than just staring at Instagram pictures all day of what Italy or the Mediterranean could feel like.??
Beyond Shah Rukh Khan not playing a romantic hero and how we are presented with an entire league of promising actresses, why Chakde India makes for a great re-watch right now is because of how well the hockey sequences and matches have been filmed. In the last game, Australia vs India and we emerge victorious there are a select few who can't resist the urge to clap or cheer. Watch it to reignite that spirit!??
When was the last time you only thought about yourself? Well, let Queen pull that trigger for you. Set against the backdrops of stunning locations like Paris and Amsterdam, watch this film from the perspective of self-exploration. Get inspired and take good care of yourself even if it's a little pampering with a face-mask.?
This film released 12 years ago and it is still relevant today! That's the power of good cinema. While Jane Tu Ya Jane Na wasn't able to mint big numbers at the box-office, it remains one of the most loved movies among millennials who dote on it because of how the movie covers aspects related to friendship and love. Binge-watch this film while you miss your friends.?
In times when we are self-isolating, movies that provide us the comfort of friendship and stunning backdrops mixed with a love story will be the ones that will have us hooked. An all-time favorite, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani can be that film for you.?
Right now is the time to focus on the simplest pleasures of life, and Ranbir Kapoor's Wake Up Sid is the most apt film to appreciate the little joys. Be it a night out at Marine Drive or bringing in your birthday at 12 with a cup of chai, Wake Up Sid is all about those humble things that make our life great.?
A movie that takes you from childhood to manhood of three of the most loved characters in Bollywood, deserves a watch, re-watch, and yet another re-watch!?
If you haven't watched this gem of a film, what are you waiting for? Enjoy it for the bromance between Salman and Aamir, the iconic dialogues and the priceless action.??
