Bollywood at its Best in 2015.
2015! Yet another year ends… And leaves behind some great movies, epic sequences and fantastic performances. Being an ardent fan, Bollywood impresses me every year with some unique stuff or sometimes the same stuff in a unique way. With every passing year my love for Bollywood is ascending and therefore it is intricate to pen down the best of 2015.
In 2015, Bollywood was successful to amaze the diverse tastes of the audiences. The patriotic ‘Baby‘ or the revenge drama ‘Badlapur‘, ‘Hate Story 3‘ (yes, it has a story!) were appreciated by the audiences. While films like ‘Dum Laga ke haisha‘ and ‘Pyaar ka Punchnama-2‘ turned out to be impressive, ‘NH10‘ and ‘Drishyam‘ didn’t fail to thrill. The parallel cinema lovers too, were in joy with films like ‘Margarita with a straw‘, ‘X‘, ‘Angry Indian Goddesses‘ doing well. Also, the films like ‘Talvar‘, ‘Masaan’ and ‘Manjhi‘, having strong plots and superb performances, were highly appreciated. Films like ‘Tanu weds Manu returns‘, ‘Dil Dhadakne Do‘ and ‘Piku‘ also should not be given a miss.
With all such amazing performances and plethora of dialogues, 2015 witnessed some major clashes at the Box-office. The first one being, ‘Baahubali‘ and ‘Bajrangi bhaijaan‘. With larger than life sets and magnificent visuals , Baahubali managed to impress everyone while the latter had the Superstar Salman Khan breaking his recent image and giving a strong message through his film. Year ended with another big clash, between ‘Dilwale‘ and ‘Bajirao Mastani‘. With SRK and Kajol reuniting along with a fun and comic starcast, ‘Dilwale‘ was a complete family entertainer. On the other hand, SLB’s magnum opus ‘Bajirao Mastani‘ was a treat to watch with epic performances by Ranveer, Deeepika and Priyanka and the majestic sets. Above all, I feel ‘Tamasha‘ was top-notch! Hats off to Imtiaz Ali for this one. A film showing the reality of life with brilliant performances by Ranbir and Deepika.
With such diverse genres of films, it is difficult to choose the top list of the year. But, there were some splendid actors who owned 2015 with their performances. Nawazuddin Siddiqui is getting better with every film. ‘Badlapur’,’Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ and ‘Manjhi’ are the proof. And with ‘Piku’, ‘Tamasha’and ‘Bajirao Mastani’, Deepika Padukone was the undisputed queen.’Ranveer Singh’ was a show-stealer in the role of Bajirao ballad, he has made it large!
If you have missed these films, do watch it. 2015 was great, and 2016 is going to be even better with the likes of Airlift, Wazir, Fitoor, Fan, Raees, Sultan,Mohenjo daro, Dangal and many more.
