Monsoon is here and there’s nothing better than watching movies inside the comfort of your house while it’s pattering outside. Grab a cup of hot chocolate, wear your PJs and spice up your day with some movie marathon. Here are 10 movies that will make you forget the monsoon blues:

1. Andaz Apna Apna (1994)

A hilarious classic that’s worth a watch with your bros this monsoon. Call your friends over, grab some pakodas and tea. Remember to drink tea in the same cup, “Kyun ki agar do dost ek pyaale mein chai piyenge, isse Dosti badhti hai!”

2. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995)

You might have watched this classic several times already but nothing beats the nostalgia you will feel while watching it during monsoon. A movie that takes you back in time and touches your heart, DDLJ is the perfect movie! You don’t need to thank me for this suggestion because Dosti mein No Sorry, No Thank you!

3. Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998)

A movie that taught us “Hum ek baar jeete hai, ek baar marte hai aur pyaar bhi ek hi baar karte hai”, is a definite watch on a rainy day when you’re feeling emo! This film takes you down the memory lane and makes you want to relive your college days. 

4. Dil Chahta Hai (2001)

Another classic cult you must watch while you are whiling away time on a rainy day. Watch this film for the bromance and amazing performances and have a good laughter, with your squad. Make your dull rainy day into an amazing one.

5. Jab We Met (2007)

A perfect combination of romance and comedy, this movie will certainly cheer you up on a rainy day. From crazy ideas of expressing love to your flame to hilarious tactics to move on, this movie is so damn relatable. Agar aap bhi khud ke sabse favorite ho, then this movie is a must watch.

6. Zindagi Na Milegi Dobaara (2011)

Group of best friends and a trip to Spain! It certainly can’t get any better than this. This movie is magical and makes you fall in love with love, life, and yourself. The boys shall make you miss your chaddi-buddies.

7. Aashiqui 2 (2013)

If you are in love, this romantic flick is a great watch for a rainy day. It makes you realize how love is not that simple. Sometimes, love means putting someone else’s ambition before yours. The movie also has some ultimate chartbusters, like Tum Hi Ho and Sun Raha Hai Na.

8. Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013)

Exotic locations, a perfect pairing, and crazy music – this movie will make you hoot every time you watch it. Other than giving you travel goals, this film will make you call your friends right then and catch up on them. PS – You will envy the chemistry between Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone.

9. Lootera (2013)

This film is a perfect mixture of adventure, romance, and drama. It is one of the finest period movies of Bollywood. It will make you want to cuddle in your blanket and immerse yourself in the chemistry between the lead pair – Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha.

10. Dear Zindagi (2016)

If you’re feeling confused and lost, all thanks to rain, trust on Shahrukh Khan to make you feel better through this movie. This film certainly brings one back to life. A slice of life flick that will leave you with a smile on your face.

A complete fresher in the industry, who started her career with motion pictures in the South, Taapsee Pannu made her Bollywood debut with the movie ‘Chashme Baddoor’ in 2013. She was highly criticized for her role and sadly, had to make her way back home. All thanks to ‘Baby’ director, Neeraj Pandey, for bringing her back to Bollywood with a bang. While the ‘Pink’ actress celebrates her 30th birthday today, we give you 5 movies why that prove that she’s the girl to look out for

That’s what comes out of a pressure cooker 😎 #Repost @avigowariker (@get_repost) ・・・ ‪#PostPackUpShot with the very versatile & beautiful @taapsee after a brand shoot. Love her ‘Dilli waala bindaas’ banter!!😉 #POTD #Monochrome #RingEffect #Portraiture #ShootDiaries #BlackAndWhite‬ #InstaPortrait #LeicaSL

1. Baby

Being beautiful and brainy is such a rare combination but this woman doesn’t disappoint us. She chooses exceptionally content driven stories and plays gutsy characters. It all started with her small yet memorable role in ‘Baby’. One intense act opposite Akshay Kumar led her to the staircase of success. FYI, she is an engineer and aspired to do her MBA.               

2. Pink

Taapsee is a box full of talent. She performed in a gripping role in ‘Pink’. Her acting was flawless and left the audience in tears. She is combative, confident, baffled, and candid as the script requests of her. She compliments Amitabh’s force and intermittent perplexity.

3. Naam Shabana

Naam Shabana gave us a back story of ‘Baby’. This was a role many leading ladies would kill for. Her versatility is what made her the right choice for this role. This Delhi-girl didn’t use any stunt-man and performed all the stunts by herself. In this movie, she proves that she’s a ‘don’t mess with me’ person and takes her work very seriously. 

4. Running Shaadi.com

Taapsee took a step forward and tried something new. ‘Running Shaadi.com’ is a social satirical movie and we see her in an all new avatar. Even though the movie did average at the box office, it did well for her career. 

5. Judwaa 2

Here’s another experiment by Taapsee. The movie is yet to release and we can’t wait to see how she will ace another role. This time she is all set to tickle your funny bones.

Taapsee shows who the real boss-girl is. From being an engineer to a wedding planner to a successful actress, Taapsee Pannu has certainly come a long way! MensXP wishes her a very Happy Birthday.
