This love saga of a Hindu Tamil priest and a Muslim girl needs a special mention. Even though ‘Shahid’ wasn’t one of the highest grossing films of 2013, it was undoubtedly one of the most critically acclaimed films.
Critics were all praises for this masterpiece. A moving performance by Raj Kumar Yadav and an engaging plot left the audiences speechless after the show was over. Not to mention, praise-worthy performances by most of the cast, especially Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone and Aditya Roy Kapur.īased on the life of the assassinated lawyer and human rights activist, Shahid Azmi, this Hansal Mehta film was an exceptional example of meaningful cinema in 2013. The film had the correct amount of drama, emotions, substance and light-heartedness. YJHD delivered exactly what it promised through trailers – entertainment, fun and some foot-tapping music. It may not be a thought-provoking piece of art, but it never promised to be one. Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani may be ridden with clichés, but the plot centring on a man who never wants to settle down with one particular thing did manage to strike a chord with the young. There are films that stir you from within, and then there are those that make you feel good. Not even once did Mohit Suri’s style of story telling let this heard-before romance go overboard! With his breakthrough performance, Aditya Roy Kapur as the brooding, alcoholic lover caught everyone’s eye and entered the league of the hottest guy in Bollywood. Shradhha Kapoor’s spotless beauty and performance as the love-struck middle class girl won accolades from all movie-goers. The music was already a hit amongst the masses and still continues to hog the 2013 chartbuster list. But the film left the audiences more than impressed.
Movie-goers would’ve thought ‘Aashiqui 2’ would be another disappointing sequel given that Aditya Roy Kapur and Shradhha Kapoor had no brilliant performances to their credit. Choosing to not go by mere box office collections, MensXP brings to you an exclusive list of the best Bollywood films of 2013. A lot of films that hit the theatres in 2013 proved how progressive the Indian cinema is becoming – be it bolder themes, better stories or innovative ways of filming. As far as storytelling is concerned, Bollywood reached a new high this year.
