Best Hindi Movies on Netflix India

The Lunchbox (IMDB rating: 7.8)

The Lunchbox is one of the best Indian movies in years. Irfan Khan and Nimrat Kaur played their respective characters with so much love and dedication.

The film is about two individuals who are different and complete strangers, unknowingly get into contact with each other through handwritten notes in the lunch box.

It’s not the story that has raised the bar of the film; it is the direction, terrific performances of both the actors, the intricate details of each scene, and thoughts. The film is an artwork, crafted delicately picking up a subject of two loveless lonely people.

There aren’t much dialogues in the narrative, but you can’t miss a single scene that reflects modern life in reality.

The Lunchbox will always be the best Hindi film ever, and thanks to Netflix that you can now watch it anytime and as many times you want.

Brahman Naman

Brahman Naman is neither a big-budget film nor a commercially successful film. But if your movie taste lies in good content yet offbeat, then ‘Brahman Naman’ is streaming on Netflix India now.

This best Hindi movie is about a group of weird young men who loves women, alcohol, and meaty jokes.

Set in 80s Bangalore, all the boys hail from a highly conservative family. They can only be themselves when they are together. There are uncountable sexual nuances, especially in dialogues that are delivered comically.

I would say the movie is more about finding love, understanding life more than just sex and friendship.

‘Brahman Naman’ is Netflix’s top 10 movies to watch.

Bareilly Ki Barfi

Bareilly Ki Barfi is one of the best Bollywood comedy movies on Netflix. A story that takes place in a small town where the character of Ayushmaan Khurrana loves the character played by Kriti Sanon, but he can’t express his feelings.

Enters Rajkumar Rao, who, through his hilarious performance has allured the attention of the audience.

A decent simple story, nothing extraordinary you will find in the storyline. The comic presence, music, and performances have upgraded the movie.

In the movie, Aisha (Zaira Wasim) narrates the love story of her parents in a hilarious yet subtle way and tells how the family coped with her chronic illness.

Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar are both great actors who have created the magic that holds the entire movie together.

Chopra, as a mother of Aisha, is impressive, realistic, and vulnerable. Akhtar, on the other hand, has maintained a balance with his resilience in portraying the father.

Surprisingly, Zaira Wasim is a package who has performed her role perfectly and makes the movie quite emotional to watch.

The Sky is Pink

A fabulous horror-comedy genre of movie that becomes one of the best Hindi movies to watch in 2018. The story of a small town is being haunted by the spirit of a woman, which takes only the men of the town leaving their clothes behind.

Rajkumar Rao-Shraddha Kapoor onscreen chemistry was a treat to watch. Also, the supporting cast gave their performance in balancing the movie.

No matter how many you watch, it always makes you smile with its experimental comedy.

Dev D

A film that deals with the contemporary Paro, Chandramukhi, and Devdas love triangle. All the characters are bold and unnerving rejects to follow the familiar story of the original Devdas.

Anurag Kashyap’s films always trigger a fire in character, his interpretation of Chandramukhi is likewise.

Kalki Koechlin, who played the role of pseudo ‘Chandramukhi’ but eccentric ‘Leni’ is a prostitute who refuses to live her life in shame. She studies during the day and pleases her customers at night.

The reckless Dev, ruining his life in consuming alcohol and drugs, finally found a way to live through Leni.

Guru

Mani Ratnam’s directorial film ‘Guru’ is perhaps Abhishek Bachchan’s best movie ever in his career.

The movie portrays the story of an ambitious villager who dreams big to start his own company and arrives in Bombay in the early 1950s’.

Abhishek Bachchan, as Guru is outstanding. He perfectly nailed playing the character. He received wide appreciation from the audience and the critics for his incredible performance in the film.

The Hindu quoted, “Guru is vintage Mani Ratnam. It encapsulates his characteristic canniness about human nature, especially relationships. This is considered Abhishek Bachchan’s role of a lifetime.”

Guru movie

Lagaan

Ashutosh Gowariker’s 2001 Bollywood periodic sports-drama film ‘Lagaan’ is set in the Victorian period of the British Raj in India.

The story follows a small village that is heavily debt-burdened of high taxes. Years of drought has worsened the situation as there is no farming possible.

The villager’s lives are dependent on a game of cricket that they hardly know about.

‘Lagaan’ was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film after Mother India and Salaam Bombay. The movie is an amazing piece of film making. Everything is so perfect about the film except it is a bit longer.

Aamir Khan as Bhuvan is delightful to watch. Not only that, but every supporting actor in the film has also performed nicely as a team. The movie has some ear-pleasing music by A.R. Rahman.

It is indeed one of the best Bollywood movies on Netflix India to watch.

Hindi movie - Lagaan

Gurgaon

A bold, nerve-wracking film about toxic masculinity and corruption. A farmer turned property developer Kehri Singh played by Pankaj Tripathi, whose real inheritor is his daughter Preet (Ragini Khanna).

But things and relationships get messed up when Ragini is abducted, and her fate lies in the hands of her family.

It is a very dark drama film where each character has its significance in the story.

Netflix India has really upgraded itself in adding movies like such in their list.

gurgaon movie

Paan Singh Tomar

Paan Singh Tomar is a film based on a real-life story and one of the best underrated Bollywood films of the decade. Paan Singh Tomar (Irfan Khan), who hails from the Chambal Valley, is a dacoit.

Indeed, a good film, although not much talk about but a must watch Bollywood movies on Netflix India.

Ugly

Ugly is yet another dark and grey theme of a film featuring a story of two families. A wannabe actor divorced father whose daughter is kidnapped.

Ronit Roy, who plays a cop and the stepfather of the kid went nuts about his daughter being kidnapped. He puts the blame on the real father letting his personal grudges overshadowing the fact that as a cop he should put efforts on finding his daughter.

Ugly is a dark thriller drama and perhaps one of the finest movies of Anurag Kashyap. Like always, his attempt to show the brutal reality of society never fails to leave a mark in the audience’s mind.

Shahid

Hansal Mehta’s ‘Shahid’ is a critically-acclaimed movie telling the story of lawyer Shahid Azmi who was arrested at the age of 16, under TADA. Later, he had spent over seven years in jail even after acquitted of all the charges against him.

Then, he became a lawyer and took cases of poor Muslims who he believed are innocent. Hansal Mehta’s ‘Shahid’ is a film that drives power from the economy and state corruption.

One of the best underrated Bollywood films, I would say.

Music Teacher

A music teacher who hails from a small town explores a beautiful relationship between him and his student.

But Jyotsna, his student got an offer from Mumbai, which she accepted after Bini, the music teacher persuades her to take.

There are a few melodious songs and a glimpse of the Himalayas that make it more interesting to watch.

Kaamyaab

A few days ago, I watched ‘Kaamyaab’ on Netflix – a beautiful film that shows the importance of side actors.

Sanjay Mishra plays Sudheer, who performed in 499 films as a side actor. He is best known for his iconic dialogue, ‘Bas enjoying life, aur option kya hai.’

He is old now, a veteran who lives alone and needed to be remembered by doing his last film’ 500.’ With time he realizes that no one remembers a side actor even though he acted in 499 films. His obsession with acting soon turned into a nightmare where he loses control over his psychology for a moment.

The film is a heartfelt tribute to all the iconic side actors of the film industry who are forgotten. Sanjay Mishra is a gem of the Hindi cinema.

He has done quite an unconventional film like Ankhon Dekhi, Kadvi Hawa. The film has melodrama, light comic, dark humor, and emotions. Sanjay Mishra’s wonderful enactment in the film is worth watching.

Kaamyaab -

Game Over

A surprising psychological horror-thriller Hindi movie that uncovers several layers of the story. The narration, screenplay, and direction of the film are quite exciting.

From the beginning, you will see only two major characters. Tapsee Pannu, who played the role of a game developer but suffering from acute depression after recovering from an incident and her maidservant who looks after her.

There are several spine-chilling scenes and make you watch till the end out of curiosity.

The film is streaming on Netflix in Tamil and Telegu languages.

 Game over

Haider

Vishal Bhardwaj’s crime-drama ‘Haider’ is loosely based on Shakespearean play Hamlet. You should watch Haider only for two characters Shahid Kapoor and Tabu.

Shahid Kapoor has impressed many stalwarts with his outstanding performance in the film. Watching him playing the disturbing and dark character who went on crazy after he lost his dear father and girlfriend will shake you up.

His expression, speech, silence, and the acting skill that he has shown onscreen is speechless and indeed one of the main reason that has made ‘Haider’ a memorable Bollywood film.

Tabu always likes even though she has been given less onscreen space, but her performance till the end scene is highly impactful.

Haider

Made in China

‘Made in China’ is a 2019 Bollywood comedy-drama film about a small Ahmedabad based businessman Raghuvir Mehta (Rajkumar Rao) who wants to be a successful businessman.

He keeps trying new business ideas but fails miserably every time. That doesn’t make him stop trying more; eventually, he does come up with a unique business idea where he involves Dr. Vardhi (Boman Irani).

Rajkumar Rao is the trademark of this film. His performance as Raghuvir Mehta, who tries his luck in establishing every business idea he has is inspiring.

The story of ‘Made in China’ does resemble another film which is less popular named ‘Khandaani Shafakhana’ starring Sonakshi Sinha in the lead.

Article 15

Ayushmann Khurrana’s hard-hitting 2019 crime-drama film ‘Article 15’ represents the uglier side of the society about caste segregation.

The film focuses on the crime committed based on the issue of discrimination on caste and gender in the rural corners of our country.

The story follows Ayushmann Khurrana, who is an IPS officer and recently got posted to Laalgaon, a rural village. He noticed how the village is divided into high and low castes. Families of low caste are being mistreated and continued to suffer in the name of caste and creed.

Meanwhile, he discovered a series of heinous crimes being attempted in the name of caste. Director Anubhav Sinha’s Article 15 raises questions and is a thought-provoking film to watch on Netflix.

He has taken us to a gruesome journey to show glimpses of incidents that are still happening in different parts of our country.

Article 15 (2019)

Tanu Weds Manu

Kangana Ranaut completely steals the movie through her outstanding performance. It is a light-hearted romantic comedy where Tanu meets Manu (Madhavan) under a strange circumstance and starts falling for her.

It’s not the story that pulled up the movie to a superhit one, but both the actors’ superb performances along with the quirky dialogues that perfectly fit the plot.

Tanu Weds Manu

Udta Punjab

Udta Punjab is director Abhishek Chaubey’s black comedy crime film starring Shahid Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Daljit Dosanjh in the lead.

It is one of the finest movies of Bollywood that has every element of a crime, passion, terrific dialogues, screenplay, and mind-blowing performances by all the actors.

The story revolves around the youth of Punjab, who are highly influenced by drugs and the various political conspiracies around it.

Shahid Kapoor, as tattooed Tommy, the role model of youth, is an all-time high on drugs and makes music. He is engrossed in his role as Tommy.

Alia Bhatt, who plays the victim of drug and physical abuse, has proved her acting skill to the audience. Ever since one after one, she is coming up with some great performances on each of her movies except Kalank.

Neerja

Neerja is one of the few movies of Sonam Kapoor that I really liked, and she did give a phenomenal performance by portraying the life of ‘Neerja,’ a flight attendant in 1986. The film pays tribute to the sacrifice that she made to save so many lives who were there on the flight during the hijack.

Neerja

Toilet Ek Prem Katha

Akshay Kumar and Bhumi starring in one of the most beautiful movies ‘Toilet Ek Prem Katha’, which is about how toilet/washroom is a mandatory thing in your life. How still today in the villages people think having a toilet at home is unholy.

Basically, the film has tried to display the truth of village people’s regressive mentality and the fact that they aren’t willing to change even though the government is trying to make a difference.

As a film, there is romance, drama, comedy, music, everything along with incredible performances by each actor.

toilet ek prem katha

Tamasha

I don’t know why ‘Tamasha’ couldn’t impress the audience and score a big in the box office.

But many think this movie is one of the best Bollywood movies that paired up the industry’s most romantic onscreen couple Ranbir-Deepika.

The storyline of the film is highly thought-provoking, where the character of Ranbir goes through a process where he is doing things in life that he doesn’t want to. Apart from the love story, the movie has very much about Ranbir Kapoor’s character where he had proved his acting prowess.

Tamasha

Secret Superstar

‘Secret Superstar’ is an inspiring movie about a young girl who dreams of becoming a singer, but she goes against her father who opposes her dream.

Against all the odds, she fights and overcome the hurdles and even helps her mother in leaving behind her abusive husband and marriage.

The film has received several prestigious awards, and everyone appreciates the work of Zaira Wasim.

 secret superstar

Pink

‘Pink’ is a powerful woman-centric court drama film that centers three woman characters Minal Arora, Falak Ali, and Andrea, who were molested. The movie shines a light on the sordid tale of patriarchy in our society that judges a woman’s character based on their assumptions.

A tale of a story, Tapsee Pannu (Minal), fights for her dignity along with the two ladies in the courtroom. Amitabh Bachchan plays an incredible brilliant role as a lawyer who took the case of Minal.

The bottom line of the story is when a girl says ‘no,’ she means you have to stop then and there. A woman’s character can’t be judged by what she wears or how she interacts.

The film was very much appreciated by the audience for taking up a bold issue of woman’s sexuality.

Pink (2016)

Taare Zameen Par

‘Taare Zameen Par’ was one of the most popular and critically acclaimed movies of 2007 that has received several awards, including the National Award for Best Film.

It is a well-crafted movie that tells a beautiful story about a boy who has dyslexia and cannot seem to get anything right.

His parents forced him to a boarding school where he found an unconventional teacher played by Aamir Khan and helps him to discover his hidden talent in painting.

It is a heart-warming, emotional, yet storytelling movie that will take you to another level of entertainment. Hence, a must added drama on my list of best Hindi movies on Netflix India.

Taare Zameen Par (2007)

Wake Up Sid

A coming-of-age drama film that depicts the story of Siddharth Mehta, who is reckless, spoilt, and hangs around with his friend.

 Wake up sid

Barfi

The story of Barfi, who can neither hear or can speak is an emotional yet beautiful movie that shows the life of Barfi played by Ranbir Kapoor. How he finds happiness in small things despite knowing his limitations.

Priyanka Chopra as Jhilmil is outstanding, who is autistic and together how they stay happily in little money they can earn.

‘Barfi’ is Ranbir Kapoor’s best film of his career till now, also an enjoyable film to watch.

barfi movie

Swadesh

Director Ashutosh Gowariker’s ‘Swadesh’ is a beautiful story about an NRI man Mohan (Shahrukh Khan), who returns to his homeland to meet his nanny Kaveri amma.

The movie shows the journey of Mohan during his stay in the village. He thinks and compares how different his country is. He is moved when he saw the horrible condition of poor people who can’t even feed their children three meals a day or provide education.

Swadesh portrays a man’s journey to his country. A beautiful storyline with a sober performance by both Shahrukh Khan and Gayatri Joshi.

Swades

Bahubali

Who doesn’t know about Bahubali, this film is the highest-grossing film ever in India, and it made crores.

Although the storyline is pretty simple, the same old betrayal for the throne stuff it‘s all about the execution and masculine power that actor Prabhas and Rana Daggubati have shown. It’s a movie that is meant to be enjoyed by watching at the set itself in the film.

Bahubali

Padman

Inspired by the life of Arunachalam Muruganantham, in which Akshay Kumar played the lead role along with Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte. It’s good to see such inspiring movies that touch the audience’s heart and make it the best.

So, certainly, Netflix has already added the movie on its list of ‘Indian movies.’

 Padman

Halkaa

An incredible story about the importance of having a toilet in the slums. The child protagonist, Pichku, who fights for the fundamental daily problem.

He doesn’t have a bathroom at home, and he doesn’t like defecating in the open. So, he started saving money for a toilet for himself.

The story is sweet and educating and definitely deserves to be one of the best independent Hindi movies to watch on Netflix.

 Halkaa

Beyond the Clouds

Young Amir, who is a street hustler and a drug dealer struggling in the city of Mumbai with his sister.

‘Beyond the Clouds’ deals with the city’s slum life, poverty, and exploitations of the less privileged section of people.

The movie is character-driven and holds the story together with each character inter-mingled presenting a beautiful story.

beyond the clouds

PK

Aamir Khan’s ‘PK’ is hilarious, philosophical, full of laughter, and a treat to watch Aamir Khan acting so passionately an ‘alien.’

So, here is the story, an alien who lands mistakenly on the Earth naked, couldn’t understand anything he learns whatever he sees and make an identity with the ‘PK.’

The film talks about political and religious issues that are nothing unknown to us, but the way the subjects have been introduced to us is affable.

‘PK’ is yet another movie where perfectionist Aamir Khan has acted and reached a peak where it is expected of him to bring such an incredible film every time.

PK (2014)

Kahaani

Sujoy Ghosh’s ‘Kahaani’ is a 2012 suspense-thriller movie that tells about the story of a pregnant woman Vidya Bagchi who returns to Kolkata from London in search of her husband.

She follows all the clues with the help of a police officer (Parambrata) to find out the truth about her husband’s death.

What’s exciting about the film is the ‘ending.’

The movie also has Bengali well-known actor Saswata Chatterjee who played Bob Biswas, a scary character that will give you goosebumps when you watch.

Kahaani –

Romeo Akbar Walter

For the last two years, the choice of movies that John Abraham is doing is mostly on the theme of patriotism.

‘Romeo Akbar Walter’ although commercially not a hit film but truly quite an interesting and attentive movie.

The character of John Abraham works as an uncover agent, where he is trained to be the best, and his loyalty has been put on test.

It is a spy thriller film that has thoroughly focused on executing the story with many exciting twists and turns.
