Despite the fact that our hectic lives and the present pandemic have left us with little time to think about anything else, Bollywood’s wonderful masterpieces have managed to infiltrate our lives, bringing a little extra thrill and leaving us in awe. As we near the close of the year and look forward to an incredible year ahead, it’s time to reflect on the year that has passed us by and reminisce about some of the year’s best creations. Let’s take a look at some of the odd Bollywood blockbusters that will be released in 2021, ranging from inspiring biopics to some impactful yet heartfelt stories:
Ramprasad ki Tehrvi
While the film’s title may appear to be oppressive and uninteresting to watch, wait until you see the great plot. Surrounding a long-awaited and depressing family reunion, the participants find themselves drawing closer to a relationship and disclosing some unsaid but big conflicts. The video beautifully depicts the journey of a new beginning after a devastating conclusion, despite the fact that it is suffering from grief.
The White Tiger
While most of us may not have been able to connect the film’s title to the plot, several terrible qualities of a white tiger were wonderfully matched to the traits of Adarsh Gaurav’s small town hero. The film earned widespread acclaim and deviated into an inconceivable suspenseful ending thanks to the presence of well-known actors such as Rajkummar Rao and Priyanka Chopra in the major roles.
Pagglait
Losing a loved one, particularly a life partner, may be traumatic and leave a lasting scar! Right!? Certainly not for the film’s protagonist! Yes, featuring Sanya Malhotra as a widow who has just lost her spouse but is unable to feel the grief or mourn the devastating loss, has been widely likened to Ram Prasad Ki Tervi due to narrative similarities. However, excellent in its own right, this film takes the audience on a voyage of self-discovery and features a cast of other talented actors, including Sayani Gupta, Ashutosh Rana, and others.
Sherni
Vidya Balan, a Bollywood actress who can carry an entire blockbuster on her shoulders, has never failed to amaze fans with her spectacular yet offbeat performances. With her presence in the film Sherni, the actress once again demonstrated how oppression and misogyny still exist in our culture. This film, which took us into the forest’s greeneries and thickets, was undoubtedly one of the greatest of the year.
Shershaah
Are you one of the many who couldn’t get enough of Captain Vikram Batra’s heartwarming and inspiring biopic? Well, despite leaving us all teary-eyed, this excellent biopic performed extraordinarily well at the ticket office, garnering an IMDb rating of 8.7. Each facet of the film garnered great compliments not only from reviewers and audiences, but also from the other stars, ranging from heartfelt stories to eccentric characters and beautifully performed songs.
Sardar Udham
Even before its release, this picture generated a lot of buzz in the Bollywood business, and it became an instant hit with the audience, receiving an IMDb rating of 8.9. With the storey of an unsung freedom fighter causing such a stir, the jury’s decision to disqualify the film for the official Oscar entry dismayed the audience. Vicky Kaushal, the film’s principal actor, had an outstanding performance, which contributed to the audience’s ecstasy after seeing the film.
Aadhaar
Who would have guessed that such a magnificent storey could be constructed around such a little subject? While the title may not entice you to binge-watch this film, the different critiquing components delivered in a comedic manner make it worthwhile to watch! This film, which revolves around the storey of a villager who becomes the first to enrol for the Aadhaar card, beautifully criticises the country’s split structure.
Haseen Dilruba
This film’s sensual yet mysterious features kept the audience fascinated till the very end! The genius of its lead actors made this film one of the most loved from the year 2021, keeping our eyes glued to the screen for a full 2.5 hours. The film, which had its world premiere on Netflix, starring Tapsee Pannu, Vikrant Massey, and Harshvardhan Rane and was inspired by “Lamb to the Slaughter.” The picture initially garnered mixed reviews, but it was well-liked by the general public.
Ajeeb Daastaans
In recent years, anthology films have seen a considerable increase in popularity, with audiences looking to get more amusement and aspects from a single picture. Following that, the four outstanding filmmakers teamed up for Ajeeb Daastaans, a 2021 anthology film. The film, which was divided into four parts, examined many themes of love, terror, betrayal, and taboos, creating a perfect blend of emotions for the viewer that received widespread acclaim and became one of the most popular works of 2021.
Rashmi Rocket
Are you one of those who believes that actress Tapsee Pannu has emerged as one of the most talented actresses in Bollywood in recent years? After receiving critical acclaim for her role in Haseen Dilruba, the actress gained notoriety for her following film, Rashmi Rocket. A sports drama film that was released on October 15th centred around an Indian athlete who not only overcame societal barriers, but was also brought down by those who compelled her to take a gender test! The heartbreaking predicament, which is based on a true storey, will leave you in tears.
Nail Polish
Have you been perplexed by the title of this one? People paint their nails in various colours and tints, and humans do the same with their personality! This film, which revolved around the insecurities of the human mind, had an ensemble cast of some bright faces, like Arjun Rampal, Manav Kaul, and others, and managed to stick the audiences with its unexpected twists and turns.
Mimi
While we were all expecting this film to be an average box office performer due to the obviousness of its tale storyline, it instead turned out to be a box office success and one of the career-changing pictures for actress Kriti Sanon. The actress’s eccentric acting and numerous emotional components proved to be a loveable factor for the public, making it a blockbuster and memorable picture for the year 2021.
