No anurag kashyap movie? :)
Kaminey Love Sex Aur Dhokha
Darr Zakhm
Band Baaja Baraat Zubeidaa
Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaenge Black Friday
More entries: Andaz Apna Apna, Bees Saal baad, Parinda, Ek Ruka Hua Faisla but it is tough to find entries that can be replaced!!!
Parinda is there, my bad……
so is Darr, kaminey and band Baaja Baraat!
@srijan, Movies on left and right are separated but identifier is not visible, it means, Kaminey should be replaced with LSD, Darr w/ Zakhm, BBB w/ Zubeida, DDLJ w/ Black Friday
Perfect. Get it sir.
Kahaani can replace Band Bajaa Baraat
Sarfarosh can replace Darr
Black can replace zameen
A wednesday can replace Johnny Gaddar
Sadma can replace Bobby
Black Friday can replace CID
and many others…
Toss out Hum Aap Ke Hain Kaun for Dil Se and _probably_ Band Baaja Baarat for Dil Chahata Hai.
Black Friday & Don (orignal).
Haven’t seen quite a few of them so tossing out seems a harder task, but still I’d say Band Baaja Baraat & Hum Aapke Hain Kaun.
But good compilation, cheers for a pretty pretty neat job!!!
Replace:
DDLJ, Amar Akbar Anthony, Lagaan, Band Baaja Baarat, Kalyug (if it is the newer one), Silsila, Pati Patni aur Woh
With:
Black Friday, Gulaal, Shanghai, Masoom, Udaan, Shaitan, Black, LSD
This is what I would replace. By the way, great work. But this sure makes one thing true. We have at least >100 films which we love and can’t afford to omit! LOL
Black Friday. It may be there in this fucked up photo but couldn’t locate.
Great List Thanks A Ton For Mentioning Garam Hawa, Namak Haraam and Aandhi. Few people have actually seen these wonderful movies and they are some of my favorite films from the past….
Shor in the city?? I think it’s one of a kind..
No Rang De Basanti??? Or M i not able to locate it
replace: darr, lage raho munnabhai, kaminey, ddlj, hum aapke hain kaun.
With: dil ek mandir, footpath (dilip), pukaar (1939), paar, ek doctor ki maut.
And hey wheres Devdas. (sehgal n dilip)
Add Don (1978). Remove Silsila.
oh u certainly missed UDAAN !!!
Taare Zameen Par and 3 Idiots can replace Band Baja Barat and Pati Patni Aur Woh!
Mere apne for an evening in paris……khamoshi for kale bazar..seriously awesome job coz I identify with so many of these films…especially kalyug..wat a gem…it also mirrors the best directors of hindi cinema, both current and old…
On second thoughts…. a good list but toss out Johnny Gaddar for Dev D please…..
some classics are just given cold shoulder..like Shri 420, Andaz, Aan etc…but that’s ok as it is your list and its not possible to include all names…
not including Gunda however in the top 100 list is just blasphemy….;-)
My list would be as follows:
Awaara, Pyaasa, Do Ankhen Barah Haath, Kanoon, Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam, Bandini, Guide, Ittefaq, Mere Apne, Anand, Koshish, Achanak,
Abhimaan, Namak Haraam, Zanjeer, Majboor, Chupke Chupke, Sholay, Amar Akbar Anthony, Ghar, Golmaal, Silsila, Vijeta, Arth, Woh 7 Din, Ardh Satya, Masoom, Hero, Ankahee, Aghaat, Saagar, Khamosh, Aakhree Raasta, Naam, New Delhi Times, Karma, Mr India, Pushpak, Goonj, Daddy, Main Azaad Hoon, Parinda, Lekin, Jurm, Agneepath, Prahaar, Lamhe, Roja, Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, Aankhen, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, Droh Kaal, Andaz Apna Apna, Hum Aapke Hain Koun, Rangeela, Khamoshi, Sardari Begum, Mrityudand, Virasat, Chachi 420, Dil Se, Satya, Shool, Sarfarosh, Kaun, Lagaan, Dil Chahta Hai, Chhal, Company, Dhoop, Teen Deewarein, Darna Mana Hai, Jhankaar Beats, Haasil, Maqbool, Black Friday, Swades, Ab Tak Chhappan, Ek Hasina Thi, 15 Park Avenue, Water, Iqbal, Khosla Ka Ghosla, Lage Raho Munna Bhai, Rang De Basanti, Taare Zameen Par, Dharm, Chak De India, Jodhaa Akbar, A Wednesday, Mumbai Meri Jaan, Aamir, Dasvidaniya, 3 Idiots, Rocket Singh, Kaminey, Peepli Live, I Am Kalam, Udaan, Stanley Ka Dabba
