Best hindi movies 2022

Even though Bollywood lovers are happy to be back in the cinemas, the best Bollywood movies of 2022 left viewers decidedly lukewarm in terms of excitement when going back to watch Hindi cinema on the big screen. This was, of course, also the year of RRR, the Telugu-language film that created a huge buzz inside India and abroad, setting all sorts of box-office records in its wake. The exuberance with which the film has been received outside of India was bemusing to South Asian critics, who don’t quite understand what the whole song and dance is about. (See what I did there?) Meanwhile, Hindi-language cinema continued its recent cycle of some movies that missed the mark of delivering a well-seasoned masala plot and a handful that perked our senses. Here is the good, the bad, and the ugly of Bollywood films in 2022, summed up in 10 movies: Gehraiyaan Tales of infidelity aren’t new to Bollywood—so much so that there’s a blurring between real and reel lives. Mahesh Bhatt’s seminal Arth (1982) was inspired by his own messy marriage, while Silsila (1981) continues to enthrall people in the way the movie cast the real life triangle of Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan alongside Rekha. There were a lot of expectations around a contemporary look at marriage and infidelity in Gehraiyaan, especially since director Shakun Batra had delivered a wonderfully complex dysfunctional family in Kapoor & Sons (2016). The trailer starring Deepika Padukone, Ananya Panday and Siddhant Chaturvedi, with Dha...

> > Indian entertainment is so much more than Bollywood's world-famous musicals. There are regional productions in languages from all over the country, phenomenal short films, and lately some really excellent television — but before we get ahead of ourselves, let's start small. Amazon has an impressive collection of Hindi movies — the most mainstream language for Indian movies, but with a variety of genres. Want to check out a Bollywood classic and see what all the fuss is about? Look no further! Want an underrated gem with an unhappy ending? We've got that too. Here are the 11 best Hindi movies available on Amazon Prime in the U.S. 1. Raazi ("Compliant") Alia Bhatt plays a married woman spying on her family in "Raazi." Credit: aa films / zee studios international One of the best mainstream Indian films of the 2010s is this one, written and directed by Meghna Gulzar. Alia Bhatt stars as Sehmat Khan, a young woman recruited to spy for India during the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War. Sehmat is married into a Pakistani family and tasked with spying on them by her father, who dies shortly after the wedding. Raazi contains familiar sequences from any spy movie; the training montage, tense surveillance, and brushes with death — but Bhatt’s performance grounds the toll of espionage in a way that few films do. Sehmat often breaks down after a high-stress encounter or upon seeing the consequences of her actions, the body count of a war purportedly greater than any of the individuals caugh...

> > As South Korean director Money Heist and many more, there's clear evidence that global audiences are ready to bridge that barrier and discover new worlds of entertainment. India produces more films annually than any country in the world, and Netflix has made many of them more accessible than ever. There's a variety of languages, so we stuck to Hindi, spoken in North India and the chosen language of widely-known Bollywood musicals as well as plenty of other genres. Here are the 16 1. Sir (2021) First-time feature director Rohena Gera sticks the landing with 2018’s Sir, which only released in cinemas in November 2020 and hit Netflix early in 2021. With Gera's writing and direction, this unlikely story never feels forced. The love blooms organically, in furtive looks and hefty silence and the trust they develop as Ashwin recovers from a broken engagement and Ratna tells him about her late husband. The result is a film so soft and stirring that it will stay with you long after it ends.* Where to watch: (opens in a new tab) (opens in a new tab) 2. Andaz Apna Apna (1994) Amar (Aamir Khan) and Prem (Salman Khan) are extraordinarily lazy schemers who dream of getting rich without lifting a finger. When they hear that the wealthy heiress Raveena (Raveena Tandon) is visiting from London to find a husband, they both seek her hand and all its perks. The two are sometimes the best of friends and worst of enemies throughout this quest, which also involves Raveena’s assistant (Karism...
