Since the beginning of cinema in India, Indian filmmakers have centred their stories and scripts around the one feeling and theme of love and romance. Hindi love stories now have a new perspective and are more relatable to today’s generation because of how much love has changed in modern culture. Here is a list of romantic Hindi movies from the past and present that you can watch with your significant other.
- Tamasha
Tamasha is one of the most daring big-screen experiments to date. The movie is not for everyone because it has a slow pace and does not have the cliche melodrama or fireworks, but it does an excellent job of capturing the reality of various young people who are struggling to fit in with society even though their hearts are elsewhere. Unlike many other Bollywood films, the love and emotions in this one exhibit a level of maturity and come of age
- Lootera
Lootera is a touching tale with creative touches and a cinematic feel. It stars Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha in lead roles. The film has a dreamy pace and stunning cinematography. It takes an unusual approach to love that is not seen much in Bollywood.
- Barfi
In contrast to past Hindi movies in Bollywood where having a disability implied a life of rejection and suffering, this love tale in Barfi celebrates love, life, and laughter. In the film, Priyanka Chopra plays the autistic Jhilmil, Ranbir Kapoor plays Barfi, a deaf-mute kid and Ileana D’Cruz plays Shruti, a smart young girl.
- Raanjhanaa
Raanjhanaa by Aanand L. Rai is a one-sided love story set in the vibrant city of Banaras that celebrates the usual “desi” small-town love that many of us experienced growing up. The movie has many beautiful songs, funny dialogues, and an interesting screenplay.
- Jab We Met
One of the top romantic movies in Bollywood is this one. The story follows an upbeat and vivacious Geet (Kareena Kapoor), who meets a businessman named Aditya who had nearly given up on life. Jab We Met is an exquisite roller coaster journey about loving yourself, accepting yourself, and laughing off your failures in life.
- Aashiqui 2
Every ‘filmy’ couple in the globe had their umbrella replaced with a jacket in the film’s iconic scene from the poster. When the title song begins to play and the rains finally stop, the union of Rahul and Aarohi is finally consummated on a rainy night. It is the ideal romantic Hindi movie to watch with your partner.
- Kuch Kuch Hota Hai
Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, directed by Karan Johar, is regarded as one of the best love stories produced in the Indian film industry. It features Shahrukh Khan, Kajol, and Rani Mukherjee in key roles. The story is about a little child named Anjali, who discovers the letter her mother had written to her before she passed away. She makes it her goal to reunite Rahul, her father, and Anjali, his longtime true love.
- Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein
The popular 90s film Rehna Hai Terre Dil Mein, often known as RHTDM centres on the romance between Madhav (R Madhavan) and Reena Malhotra (Dia Mirza), whose wedding has already been planned, and Rajeev (Saif Ali Khan). A memorable scene from the movie shows Madhav falling in love with Reena after seeing her for the first time dancing in the rain. Oh, so romantic!
