Diwali means being home with friends and family, and this year; the weekend just made it a whole lot better. While you deck up the house and get your party playlist in place, we bring you a list of movies that you can watch together, just like the old times. Make tubs of popcorn, grab those mithai boxes and chocolates and make space for everyone to park themselves for a movie marathon!
Hum Aapke Hain Kaun
This family drama has been a favourite for decades. A young Salman Khan, dreamy Madhuri on screen and the advent of a bunch of sing-dance numbers, this movie is a walk down the memory lane.
Andaz Apna Apna
The pre-break up times for the two Khans, this movie is a laugh riot and easily one of the best comedies to watch with your gram and nephew. Everyone loves Teja and Crime Master Gogo.
Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham
The family saga by Karan Johar started it all – huge sets, larger than life characters and songs! The title track will give you festive season goals. Crackers, lights and laddoos!
English Vinglish
A modern take on the domestic lives, this one brings forth the bittersweet moments we have had with our mums, growing up. A tear jerker of sorts, watching Sridevi pick up a new language is heart-warming.
Queen
Weddings always get the elders talking, and this coming-of-age take on how girls feel pressured to get hitched is perfect to ask mums and aunts to back off a bit. Great music and Kangana’s comic timing are perfect to go with that popcorn munching!
Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam
Dholi Taaro! Need more reasons? Lot of dancing to get you in the mood for a party later, and a strong messaging on family values!
Dil Dhadakne Do
Do you feel you have a dysfunctional family with no resemblance to the ensemble casts on the big screen? This one mirrors the nutty side of our folks. Dark humour with mithaai might just bring you closer to relatives.
Chupke Chupke
A favourite in my family, this 70s classic comedy is perfect to bring together different generations in your fam-jam and share a weekend afternoon siesta.
Prem Ratan Dhann Payo
Ignore the silly plot and just enjoy the title song and stellar locales. This latest offering from the Barjatya camp intends to bring forth the old family values. All Bhai fans would agree to it.
