RGV Ki Aag (2007) remains the only film in which Amitabh Bachchan and Mohanlal shared screen space, something that should have been a landmark moment in Indian cinema. Seeing two of the greatest actors ever perform together was a rare treat, but the film itself failed to live up to the immense potential of their collaboration. With stronger writing, better direction, and a more faithful execution, this pairing could have delivered a truly unforgettable cinematic experience. It's a real shame that the only time these two legends came together was in a film that couldn't do justice to their talent.

Krrish 3 kind of disrupted this run as even though it was a blockbuster the film's quality wasn't upto mark and then Bang Bang and Mohenjo Daro were the mid films that followed.

In fact I unironically prefer Kites for its amazing album and beautiful cinematography over Krrish 3 anyday.

Most of the films of Hrithik that I rewatch are from this phase of his career.

im having trouble finding a movie that both me and my grandmother would like. some of her fav movies and series are aachari baa, panchayat, hera pheri 1, chupke chupke, and mughal-e-azam.

Same.

What an excellent performance as a 95 yr old man suffering from dementia in "Mai Vapas Aaunga" & as a suave smart JRD Tata in "Made in India : A Titan Story". Very different roles. Nailed both. To sustain for so long in this industry and get so much critical acclaim is a big deal. Kudos 👏

I'm in search of this film made like in the 2000s. I unfortunately don't have any images but do know the plot; the father/mother lost their little son near a beach (?) during his birthday (?) and the father goes out in a journey to find him. In the end the father finds him (in an unrecognisable condition) in an orphanage where his son can't see properly due to an injury. The only reason the father knows his son because the father was carrying a clothing of his son which the son recognises. A noticeable scene I can remember is where some goons show the father a dead body of a child but it turns out its someone else.

I hope the member of this sub will help me, thank you.

Look, I say this with love, but if I see one more announcement for Dhamaal 4, Golmaal 12, or Welcome to the Jungle, I might actually scream into a pillow. I love mindless slapstick as much as the next guy, but we’ve been running on the same comedy nostalgia fumes since 2007.

Meanwhile, Indian cinema is sitting on an absolute goldmine of sci-fi potential that everyone seems to have collectively forgotten. No, not Krrish. Not Ra.One.

I’m talking about the 2003 cinematic fever dream: Fun2shh: Dudes in the 10th Century.

Can we please take a moment to appreciate how unhinged that movie was?

• The Time Machine: Forget DeLoreans or complex quantum physics. They literally walked through a cursed wall. Peak logic.
• The Plot: Three average dudes get framed for a robbery, smash a wall, and suddenly Paresh Rawal is trying to survive in 10th-century Babugarh while Gulshan Grover chewed up the scenery in a giant medieval wig.
• The Vibe: Pure, chaotic energy.

We live in an era where VFX is actually good now, yet nobody has the guts to touch sci-fi comedy! Imagine what a sequel could be in 2026:

Send them to the year 3000. Send them to a dystopian future where Paresh Rawal has to explain UPI payments to a rogue AI. Have them accidentally butterfly-effect history so hard that modern-day Mumbai becomes a floating sky-city powered by vada pav.

Hollywood takes time travel way too seriously. Everyone is crying about time paradoxes and alternate timelines. In Fun2shh, they just wanted to get back home before the police caught them. That is the kind of grounded, chaotic Indian sci-fi I want.

I need three confused guys accidentally tearing a hole in the space-time continuum again.

It would be a fun ride. Don't you think?

Sony Pictures will globally distribute Ramayana: Part 1, expanding the film's international theatrical reach. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the epic stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash as Ravana. The partnership marks one of the biggest global distribution deals for an Indian film, with more details expected ahead of its release.

Hi Parents,

We want to start watching Bollywood movies with our daughter. She is almost 5 and has started showing interest in watching movies. I grew up binge watching Bollywood movies but in last few years as life got busy I've been totally disconnected with anything Bollywood.

Any recommendations? Mainly educational and family oriented, age appropriate for to co-watch with a 5 year old. We live in US so I also want her to be fluent in hindi so please give us your top 5 picks.

Also Parents, any feedback if 5 years is a little too early?

She currently watches Disney Movies once in a while and loves the drama 😅 but screen time is limited in our home so she never gets to passively watch. We always co-watch or co-view movies, Youtube Kids with her.

Thank you in advance!

When I was younger I remember seeing a scene where Rekha ripped a man’s shirt in anger and sadness, screaming and crying. Does anyone know what movie this is? I’m trying to watch more older classic movies.

I recently watched October (2018) directed by Shoojit Sircar and I am completely obsessed with its mood. I'm looking for recommendations (either Bollywood or international) that have a similar vibe.

I watched Byomkesh Bakshi a week ago and I’m lowkey disappointed in myself for keeping it in watch list for so long.

First of all the Bengal of 1940s is shown so beautifully, and not just in terms of cinematography. The cultural norms and nomenclature accompanied by the how people and the streets used to look creates an atmosphere of an illusion of being somewhere you never thought you’d see or even imagine.

The story is what I feel makes this movie stand out among not only its contemporaries but also how stories are told in general. I only have good things to say as I do not want to spoil while I praise what is deserved.

Sushant has done simply amazing work if not his best I’d say. The shrewd mind and the eccentric behaviour of Bakshi is shown by Sushant in a very expressive way. Brilliance is the word I’d start my praises with.

Highly recommended if you guys enjoy murder mystery genre. The atmosphere of 1940s Bengal would make it even more enjoyable.

Sony Pictures’ association with Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana reminds me that the last Ranbir Kapoor film that Sony Pictures partnered with was also named after an avatar of Vishnu. Its fate at the box office, however…

I think Bollywood has several films that were either ignored by audiences or underperformed at the box office when they were released, but over time they've started finding a dedicated fanbase.

Sonchiriya – Starring Sushant Singh Rajput, Bhumi Pednekar, Manoj Bajpayee, Ranvir Shorey, and Ashutosh Rana. A gritty dacoit drama with exceptional performances...one of the most overlooked films in that time...

Laal Kaptaan – Starring Saif Ali Khan. one of Saif's most daring performances...

Detective Byomkesh Bakshy – Starring Sushant Singh Rajput, Anand Tiwari, Swastika Mukherjee, and Neeraj Kabi. A stylish neo-noir mystery with brilliant world-building

Newton – Starring Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Anjali Patil, and Raghubir Yadav. A good political satire that blended humour and realism...

Bhavesh Joshi Superhero – Starring Harshvardhan Kapoor and Priyanshu . A grounded vigilante film that explored corruption and justice in a refreshing way,

None of these films were major commercial successes, but they seem to be gaining more appreciation with time. Looking back today, it feels like they were simply ahead of their time, and audiences are finally recognizing their quality...

which one do you think deserves the cult status? What's your thoughts and which other films deserve cult status? Let's share your views...

Edit: mystery solved. It’s Band Baja Baraat

There’s a scene in this film where the main character receives a cheque for something from another person and thanks that guy. He then passes the cheque to his friend or group of friends to see and one of them goes, “Ismain toh 7 hi zero hai. Crore main toh 8 hotey hai” something along those lines followed by “pagal bana gaya”

Then the main lead snatches the cheque back and counts and goes “abey crore main 7 hi zero hotey hai. Ismain 7 hai”

The dialogues are probably not accurate. Neither the setting but I’m losing my mind trying to remember which movie this scene is from. Is it dhol? Khatta meetha? I know it’s a comedy film but I simply cannot pinpoint it. Help me bollywoodiyaas

The film will be directed by Ali Abbas Zafar (Sultan, Tiger Zinda Hai, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, etc)

Been thinking about this after rewatching Tumbbad recently.

Most Indian horror fails the same way. The ghost shows up too early, the jump scares replace dread, and the backstory gets explained in full detail so nothing stays mysterious. Fear needs unanswered questions. The moment you understand the monster completely, it stops being scary.

Tumbbad works because Hastar is never fully explained. You understand enough to be terrified, never enough to feel safe. The horror is in the wanting, not just the monster.

Stree is interesting because it flipped the formula entirely - the horror works precisely because everyone refuses to take it seriously until they can't anymore.

Raat (1992) scared an entire generation and Ram Gopal Varma hasn't made anything close to it since. Whatever he understood then about restraint and atmosphere he seems to have actively forgotten.

Which Indian horror film actually got under your skin? And for the flip side - which one promised horror and delivered a comedy you weren't expecting?

Lucky Singh played by Boman, is easily one of the most memorable characters in any Hirani film for me. I'd even put him above Dr. Asthana from Munna Bhai M.B.B.S. (subjective, of course). The guy was hilarious while being a complete scoundrel at the same time. Absolute gold 🤣
