I’m not too good with the “romantic” genre… I’m more of an parallel movies buff and enjoy a good comedy every now and then. So here are some suggestions. Also, I haven’t seen movies from before the late seventies… so I’m taking the liberty to include a few from the nineties as well.
Comedy Movies:
- Amar Akbar Anthony (arguably belongs in multiple categories)
- Angoor
- Chupke Chupke
- Gol Maal (old)
Jane Bhi Do Yaaron
Mainstream Cinema – Action Flicks:Agnipath
Deewar
Gardish
Parinda
Sholay (arguably belongs in multiple categories)
Mainstream Cinema – Drama:Kabhi Kabhi
Lamhe
Main Azad HooN
Vidhaata
Shakti (old)
Silsila
and last but not the least, my own preferred genre of movies:
Alternate / Parallel / Arthouse Cinema:
- Aandhi
- Abhimaan
- Anand
- Arth
- Bazaar
- Falak
- Ijaazat
- Koshish
- Khamoshi (old)
- Lekin
- Masoom
- Mausam
- New Delhi Times
- Sadma
- Saheb
- Saleem Langrey Pey Matt Ro
