The film begins with Sahil’s (Deol) stepfather Jaisingh Sinha (Raj Babbar) announcing his marriage with Sheetal (Koirala), leaving Sahil’s childhood sweetheart Isha (Kajol) angry. Next evening Jaisingh gets murdered, and Sahil is accused of killing him. Now, is Sahil the murderer or there is someone else behind the crime, forms the narrative of the film.

Ishq

Streaming on: Disney+Hotstar, YouTube

Ishq, starring Ajay Devgn, Kajol, Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla, is a typical Bollywood movie of the 90s. It boasts of brilliant music by Anu Malik (Humko Tumse Pyaar Hai, Mr Lova Lova, Neend Churayi Meri), a hilarious first half and a melodramatic second half. The scene where Aamir tries to walk on a pipe between two high-rise buildings will always be the high point of the movie for me.

Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya

Streaming on: ZEE5

Written and directed by Sohail Khan, Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya stars his brothers, Salman and Arbaaz, along with Kajol and Dharmendra in pivotal roles. More than anything, the film is remembered for its song “O Jaane Jana”, Salman’s chiselled physique and Kajol’s jovial aura.

Dushman

Karan Johar’s first directorial Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is among the favourites of 90s kids. Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol and Rani Mukerji play key roles in the film which enjoyed phenomenal success at the time of its release in 1998. The millennials fell in love with Shah Rukh, Kajol and Rani in the characters of Rahul, Anjali and Tina, respectively. From its friendship goals to fashion and even dialogues like “pyaar dosti hai” and “kuch kuch hota hai Rahul, tum nahi samjhoge,” several things remain etched in our memory.

Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham

Streaming on: Netflix

The family drama is a guilty pleasure for many fans of Bollywood.

Tribhanga

Streaming on: Netflix

In her review of Tribhanga, The Indian Express film critic Shubhra Gupta wrote, “Renuka Shahane’s directorial debut Tribhanga is a chamber piece which manages to go past its problems to brim over with real feeling. What I really like about Tribhanga is the clear-eyed, unsentimental treatment of relationships, which can often be so cloyingly exaggerated in mainstream cinema.”
