Movies ahead of its time? - Page 2

Andaz Apna Apna

Lamhe

Dil Se

Tamasha

I don't understand the fondness people have for Lamhe. It was a terrible movie, IMO. What exactly did Jr. Sri and Anil have in common except her resemblance to her dead mother and her wanting his attention as a child?

But then, when were shared interests and melding personalities a reason for love in Bollywood? So maybe my expectations are wrong.

IMO, Rocket Singh would've been a hit today. It was RK's Ayushman movie before YRF happened to Ayushman.

Also, I don't know how Byomkesh Bakshi or Go Goa Gone did when they released, but they'd have done well today.

Bombay Velvet

Jagga Jasoos

Lamhe, Rocket Singh and Aitraaz

The ones I can remember right away are Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani, Guide, Astitva, Jaane bhi do Yaroo, Pyaasa.

No one mentions these movies in such threads

But

DIL HAI KE MANTA NAHI

JO JEETA WOHI SIKANDAR

were UBER COOL movies as 1991 & 1992 films...and still seems fresh.

Aitraaz jaisi typical potboiler thriller kya kar rahee hai iss list may....😲....MATLAB kuch bhi 🤪😆

Bollywood has seen much polished & ahead of its times thrillers even in such old bygone era of 60' & 70's like Mera Saaya, Ittefaq , woh kaun thi etc..

2000's masala thriller Aitraaz in this list is just 🤪 worthy.

Also RGV's

KAUN (1999)

RANGEELA (1995)

SHIVA (1990)

&

HAIRAAN (1993)

were absolutely amazing & way ahead of their times.

(also Shekhar Kapoor's 1994 Bandit Queen)
