One movie to watch

If a colleague overseas or a foreign tourist asked you "Tell me name of one bollywood movie that i should watch?"

Which one would you suggest?

I would suggest 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun'

I'd suggest Dil Chahta Hai because it's based in Sydney, and Bombay. Two cities I love. Plus it is a fun movie.

Yesterday I daw "Om Jai Jagdish", even though the movie bombed at the box office, but still I feel that it gives a feel of indian family values, in these modern times..

Its helps you understand the relationship that ine shares with other family members..

I would suggest 'Cheeni Kum'. It is a Director's movie based on a simple story made interesting by good screen play. There is no songs (except the one as a background) no dances yet interesting to watch.

His / her age, liking, interest (well, Indian culture is definitely there still….. any special interest)? That is really very important to suggest a right film to a right person.
He he…. Can you compare “Sahab biwi aur Ghulam” and “Dhoom” ?

Hey Nick, Some of them are excellent. I would suggest Paheli for the locales and for capturing the rustic beauty of Rajasthan.
