Barfi! (2012)

The absolute heart melter, Barfi, is a crowd favourite, and for all the right reasons. The film displayed the beautiful settings of 1970s Darjeeling and Kolkata, following the crazy adventures of a mute and hearing impaired boy, Barfi. Barfi is packed with powerful performances by Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Ileana D’Cruz and has impactful writing.

Jagga Jasoos (2017)
Anurag’s musical adventure film Jagga Jasoos tells a story of Jagga, played by Ranbir Kapoor, a gifted teenage detective who, along with a female companion, is on a quest to find his missing father. The music of the film stands out and justifies the story being a musical entirely. It is a visual treat too!
