6 Must-Watch Rom-Coms:

1. October
Helmed by Shoojit Sircar, October is no typical rom-com. It maps the timid, evolving romance of Dan (Varun Dhawan) and Shiuli (Banita Sandhu), cemented in tragedy and selfless concern. With barely any dialogue and thick emotional resonance, the film explores love that asks for nothing but just happens. It is a slow burn that seeps into the heart.

2. Laila Majnu
Based on the age-old folk legend, Laila Majnu is a contemporary adaptation in Kashmir. The movie goes all out exploring concepts of madness, divine love, and yearning. The on-screen chemistry between Avinash Tiwary and Tripti Dimri lends soul to this love tragedy and leaves a haunting impression on audiences.

3. Dil Bechara
From The Fault in Our Stars, this film was more emotional since it was Sushant Singh Rajput’s last. His portrayal of Manny, however sick and free-spirited, and his bond with Kizie (Sanjana Sanghi) touched hearts of millions. It is one about making the most out of what little time one has and embracing moments, no matter brief.

4. Kal Ho Naa Ho
This film remains a legend for balancing comedy, friendship, and an earth-shattering secret. Shah Rukh Khan’s portrayal of Aman, a man suffering from a life-threatening disease. He reunites the love of his life and another man, was a lesson in selfless love for the audience.

5. Sanam Teri Kasam
A story of love in the wrong moment, this film presents heartbreak in its pure form. The transformation of two outcasts into soul mates is well presented with a painful conclusion that tugs at every romance’s heartstrings.

6. Tamasha
A film about discovering oneself in love, Tamasha is a complex story of living life beyond expectation. Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone present us with performances filled with emotion that resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost.
