There is an awesome quote by Spryte Loriano which says, "Every great story on the planet happened when someone decided not to give up, but kept going no matter what." A very simple yet a very impactful quote. It is motivation that helps you to keep going despite the difficulties you face and it is motivation that helps you to take an initiative for achieving your goals. There are so many people in our life who motivate us and also there are many great personalities worldwide whose success stories are astonishing. So amongst all this, how can the Bollywood industry stay behind? The industry has got some of the finest actors who have made our country proud. They have reached humongous levels of success through their hard work and became popular around the globe and also made Bollywood popular in the whole world. They showed us that nothing is impossible as they went from rags to riches, from nobody to a household name. Today I would like to share with you a list of Bollywood celebrities who have made our country popular on international levels through their hard work. Their contribution to the film industry is huge and well acclaimed. Have a look below.

1) Shah Rukh Khan:

In a recent video of the English actor, Tom Hiddleston, where he played the word association game, he was given the word 'India' to which he said Shah Rukh Khan. Later, he was given the word 'Bollywood' to which he asked, "Am I allowed to say Shah Rukh Khan again?" The video itself is an ultimate proof of Shah Rukh Khan's success. His success in the Bollywood industry is so enormous that Shah Rukh Khan and Bollywood are synonyms for so many people around the world. Almost all of us know his life story that how an ordinary Delhi guy made his way to the city of dreams- Mumbai, faced so many struggles in his acting career yet had so much confidence in himself that he proved himself and his worth to everyone. He said that he is here to rule and it is a fact that he is ruling Mumbai, the whole India and also the world with his charm and his acting. Shah Rukh Khan is truly an unprecedented movie star. 

2) Priyanka Chopra Jonas:

Priyanka Chopra Jonas- an actress, singer and film producer is that one woman who never fails to inspire us, especially the young girls. She is one of the 100 most influential people in the world and is also among the world's 100 most powerful women. She was the winner of the Miss World 2000 pageant, after which she was offered films from the Bollywood industry. She started her career in Bollywood with the movie, 'The Hero: Love Story of a Spy' in 2003 and then was seen in several movies over the time. But there are difficulties and struggles behind every success story and she also had some difficult times in her acting career where she had many unsuccessful films at the box office but we know she is here today because she never stopped. She already made our country in the year 2000 by winning the Miss World pageant but later, she also expanded her acting career in American film and T.V. which made us prouder. Her whole personality is a motivation for us and adding to it in 2021, she published her memoir named 'Unfinished', where she has shared the important moments of her life and career, which can become another source of inspiration for us by her.

Later she was seen in several Bollywood movies but the movie Main Hoon Na (2004) is considered her biggest hit in her whole acting career. Nirbaak was her first ever Bengali film in her career. She did not appear in a huge number of films but will be always loved by all for whatever she is. In 2020, she played a role of a housewife in Ram Madhvani's 'Aarya' for which she was well praised. 

5) Irrfan Khan:

Irrfan Khan, though today is not between us, is always alive in our memories. He was awarded the Padma Shri award for his contribution to the field of arts. He had a very much struggling career as we all know that success never comes easily. He did many small roles in several movies until he was heing recognised. Also, on the global front, he was seen in movies like, The Warrior (2001), The Namesake (2006), The Darjeeling Limited (2007), Slumdog Millionaire (2008), I Love You (2009), The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), Life of Pi (2012), Jurassic World (2015) and Inferno (2016). He did a small role in the movie Salaam Bombay which was his acting debut. The movie Angrezi Medium was his final appearance. He was also praised for his roles in movies like, The Lunchbox (2013), Piku (2015), Talvar (2015). His contribution to the film industry can never be forgotten and we can say this with pride for Irrfan Khan that 'legends never die'. 

                 

              Well, for the people not knowing this, the name 'Parth' means, 'the person who never misses his target' and to our amazement, we see Parth Samthaan proving it right every time. To be more specific, Parth Samthaan's target is his fans' hearts and we see him hitting it straight to the point with his sterling performances, his dapper personality and his oh! so cute intagram pictures. This man can be anything, right from utterly sweet and cute to marvelously sexy and manly. We have seen his versatility in shows like Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan and Kasauti Zindagi Kay. In the show Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan itself we have seen two different personalities portrayed by him. One is the arrogant and aggressive 'Monster Manik', while the other is the rather gracious and tender hearted Manik who is in love with Nandini. Also his character of a simple, sweet and innocent Bengali boy Anurag Basu from the show Kasauti Zindagi Kay, garnered him a great deal of praise. 

                    His dazzling smile and his dreamy eyes can make girls swoon over him in an instant. He has this, 'bholi si surat and aankhon mein masti' and it is his female fans jo 'durr khadi sharmaaye' and I have only two words for his irresistible charm and that's- 'Aye haaye!' No wonder why he is one of the most desirable men on television. After Siddharth Shukla, he bagged the second position in the list of the Most desirable men on T.V., 2020. His instagram profile is also a complete treat for all his female fans and why it wouldn't be? We see him sharing his sun kissed pictures, his shirtless pictures and also his photos from the gym with some goofy captions to maintain the balance as his instagram pictures are sometimes 'too hot to handle'. The glow on his face and his pictures add glow to his fans' day. I am so interested in watching what and how he is going to blow our minds in the future. Comment down below your thoughts about the amazing Parth Samthaan and how did you become his fan.

              

                 The actor with an undeniable charm, bushy eyebrows, a dapper personality and alluring dimples. Yes, its the one and only- Ayushmann Khurrana! He manages to steal our hearts in an instant just with his contagious smile and laugh. The most adorable thing about him is whenever he smiles, his eyes almost get closed more than it would be in an ordinary duchenne smile and his dimples straightly make a way into my heart and my mind sings 'Oh haareya main dil haareya'. 

                    Ayushmann Khurrana never fails to amaze us with his outstanding performances. He is an actor who looks for challenges and always chooses the best scripts. Be it Vicky Arora or be it Chirag Dubey, we can't deny the awesomeness of the roles he has played with such sheer perfection. Ayushmann Khurrana is a multi-talented person and is not only an actor but also a singer, writer and an excellent talk show host as well which makes me feel like, "ek hi toh dil hai, kitni baar jeetoge?" Ayushmann is also a complete family man and the best husband and father a woman could ever ask for. He married his high-school sweetheart in November, 2008 after being together with her for 7 years in a relationship. He is a selenophile which makes me love him even more. 

                      The boy who came all the way from Chandigarh, won the roadies season 2, became a show host for several TV shows, and finally fulfilled his big dream by making a debut in Bollywood with Vicky Donor, is our Ayushmann Khurrana! But this is not the end, after several unsuccessful films like Nautanki Saala!, Bewakoofiyaan and Hawaizaada, he started his own band named 'Ayushmann Bhava' which shows us his 'never give up' attitude and his whole journey inspires us to be perseverant in achieving our goals. He has been a true blessing to the Bollywood industry and is being prominently hailed for his acting prowess through which he strongly portrays characters of men tackling social issues. But, be it real life or reel life, he is that Ayush'man'n who has kept us astonished with everything he does. Well, well, I can't stop singing songs of praise for him but I would like to conclude by saying how he is just an amazing human being. On the work front, he will be seen in Abhishekh Kapoor's 'Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui' alongside Vaani Kapoor and in Anubhav Sinha's next named 'Anek'. Totally excited and awaiting to see what he has in store for us.

                So, these were the 10 best Shah Rukh Khan movies to watch. There is actually a huge list of the best movies in his whole career, but these are especially from the 90s and early 2000s. Some of these movies especially from the 90s are lesser known to some people and that is why I wanted to recommend those and some are the best super hits which we all know. So how many movies have you already watched from the above list and how many are going to be added to your watchlist? Let me know in the comments below.

      The 'A' in Ayush definitely stands for adorable. Every time with his beaming smile, Ayush Mehra radiates happiness. The 29 years old actor is hailed for his finest works in FilterCopy, Dice Media's Please Find Attatched, Operation MBBS, Minus One, etc. Over the time, he has garnered alot of praise not only for being a phenomenal actor but also for being a dedicated lover. His 15 year old relationship is a great example of true love for everyone of us. With his silly boomerangs and sunshine-like instagram posts, he never fails to prove it that he is truely the epitome of cuteness. He never misses a chance to keep his fans entertained.

So, all the Ayush Mehra fans, comment down below your favourite character portrayed by him. 

                   

            We can't deny the fact that bollywood and romance go hand in hand. Inspite of the other genres like action, comedy, thriller, etc, romance is an inevitable genre in bollywood movies. Also, in all the other types of movies as well, at some point there is romance squeezed into the storyline. We have seen so many iconic and classic romantic bollywood movies. Also, we have seen how the characters in these movies fall in love with each other and then their love story gets so many twists and turns along the way and yet these couples stick together and fight for their love and overcome all the difficulties that come their way. Their love stories are nothing but perfectly imperfect and these couples give us #couplegoals as we can say in our social media language. So let's take a look below at the list of some of the most lovey-dovey couples from the best romantic bollywood movies.

1) Raj and Simran (from- Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge): 

Image source: YashRaj Films

         I am actually obssessed with this movie and why shouldn't I be? Because this is that one classic movie which has a permanent residence in everyone's hearts. Raj and Simran are the names which we Indians can never forget and now it seems like these two names were always meant to be taken together. Raj and Simran have a typical love story where they have to overcome the family barrier in order to be together and they finally do it in the end. The climax of the movie where Raj lends his hand to Simran to help her catch the train while Simran runs on the platform carrying her lehenga in her hands and finally gets hold of Raj's hand and catches the train and their love wins! I have only one word for this whole scene and that is 'ICONIC'.

2) Jay and Aditi (from- Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na):

Image source: Aamir Khan Productions

  Jay and Aditi, also known as 'Meow and Ratz', are the one couple who don't even realize they are in love and are perfect for each other. Their story witnesses this beautiful transformation from friendship to love and we couldn't ask for anything more. The 'best friends turning into lovers' type of love stories always have their own magic. After all, a boy named Rahul once said ke, "pyaar dosti hai".

3) Raj and Pooja (from- Mujhse Dosti Karoge):

Image source: Yashraj Films

This one couple has a whole different vibe. Pooja was in one-sided love with Raj right from childhood. Raj, on the other hand, is in love with Pooja without even knowing that he is in love with Pooja. Yes, I know that sounds crazy, but if you have already watched the movie, then you will understand what I am talking about. Raj seems to be the perfect guy as he falls in love with Pooja only because of her personality and inner beauty. Now, that is some serious couple goals. 

4) Veer and Zara (from- Veer Zara):

  

Who says ke "Veer aur Zara ka naam kabhi saath mein liya nahi jaa sakta?" These names sound perfect and complete only when taken together. Veer and Zara are the couple who had to overcome the family and geographical boundaries. If the chemistry of this couple doesn't overwhelm you with emotions, then I don't know what will. Veer sacrifices his job and 22 years of his life for Zara and Zara dedicates her life for fulfilling Veer's dreams. We don't want 22 years but atleast want someone to sacrifice their 22 hours for us. 

5) Rohit and Sonia (from- Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai):

Image source: Filmkraft Productions

Rohit and Sonia have another boundaries to their love story and that is the boundaries of status. The love story between a poor boy and a rich girl. Inspite of these boundaries they fall in love with each other, this is enough to explain how true their love is. 

6) Poonam and Prem (from- Vivah):

Image source: Rajshri Productions

Poonam and Prem- the most pure and innocent on-screen couple. The movie shows us the beauty of arranged marriages and how, inspite of being an arranged marriage, 'do anjaane ajnabee' can also fall in love with each other. Poonam and Prem's love story completely astonishes us in the end and also gives us daydreams about an arranged marriage. 

7) Rahul and Pooja (from- Dil Toh Paagal Hai):

Image source: Yashraj Films

Pooja is a girl who truly believes in the magic of love and on the other hand, we have Rahul, a free-spirited guy who knows nothing about love. We all know, when two opposites attract and fall in love with each other, the resulting chemistry is a treat to watch. Their love story will give you super high hopes that somewhere, someone is made for you. This couple has made us believe in soulmates and the power of love. 

8) Simran and Jay (from- I Hate Luv Storys):

Image source: Dharma Productions

Another example of 'opposites attract', almost the same like Rahul and Pooja, where Simran is a hopeless romantic and Jay is a guy who hates the concept of love stories. While Simran thinks she has already found her Mr. Right in Raj, she bumps into Jay, the perfectly imperfect guy, and slowly and gradually falls in love with his imperfections. Their love story shows us how love can completely change a person, how it can make a sober person crazy and vice versa. Simran's love conveys us the message that it's not necessary that a completely perfect guy is your Mr. Right, sometimes, a Mr. Wrong can also be your Mr. Right. 

9) Geet and Aditya (from- Jab We Met):

A feisty girl Geet and a grave guy Aditya= one of the best love stories ever. A love story that starts with hate, goes through moments of fun, emotions, sacrifice and finally ends with love. Geet enters into Aditya's life and helps him to diminish his worries and become a better person. Whereas, Aditya almost sacrifices his love for Geet and helps her to lead a happy life and also is always there for her whenever she needs him. Now this is why everyone wants an Aditya Kashyap in their lives. 

10) Dev and Maya (from- Kabhi Alvidaa Naa Kehna):

Image source: Dharma Productions

Dev and Maya make each other believe in true love once again. Both have unsuccessful marriages, but later, inspite of being married, they find themselves in love with each other, a love they had never experienced with their partners. Geet from Jab We Met had said, "ke jab koi pyaar mein hota hai toh kuch sahi ya galat nahi hota hai". That's the exact case in Dev and Maya's love story where they forget the boundaries of their marriages and society and sink in each other's love. 

                      So, these are some of the best fictional couples from the most romantic bollywood movies. Each one these couples has showed their true mettle in their respective love stories. These couples surely give us some major couple goals and also their own definitions of love. Who is your favourite fictional bollywood couple and why? Mention in the comments below. 

               

               Amrita Rao! The moment we hear this name, a delicate and an incredibly beautiful face flashes in front of our eyes. To be honest, her beauty cannot be articulated in words. But at the most that I can say is, her beauty holds that power which is capable enough to make anyone swoon over her by just a glimpse of her face. Not to sound over dramatic, but this is what I really feel. The actress made her bollywood debut with the movie Ab Ke Baras (2002). Post that, she was seen in movies like Ishq Vishk (2003), Main Hoon Na (2004), Vivah (2005), Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi (2005) and many more. Her on-screen chemistry with Shahid Kapoor was adored by all. Also, how can I forget to mention her impeccable acting skills in the movie Vivah which made us fall in love with her even more. I don't think anyone else would had been perfect for playing the role of Poonam. She had made a mark in the era of early 2000s and I guess her charm is still the same. Her exquisite beauty was even admired by the Indian artist M. F. Hussain when he painted her live after her movie Vivah. This was a very great honour as the Indian actress he had painted before Amrita Rao was Madhuri Dixit after Hum Aapke Hai Koun and after 11 years Amrita Rao was his next muse from the Indian cinema. Even though she doesn't work much in the movies now, she still stays in our hearts as always. Now all we can do is watch her old movies, her old songs, watch her videos on her YouTube channel named AmritaRaoChannel and also we can always follow our favourite celebrities on Instagram. But seriously, where can I sign a petition for bringing Amrita Rao back on the big screen. I really want to see her working in bollywood movies more and more and it would be a cherry on the cake if she would pair up with Shahid Kapoor once again. We don't know if it's going to happen or not, but the one thing I that I know for sure is even if my list of my favourite actresses keeps shuffling with time, the top most position is always reserved for Amrita Rao. So, all the Amrita Rao fans out there, comment down below your favorite movie of Amrita Rao and what do you like most about her character from the movie. 

 

Kriti Sanon can also be called as ‘Pretty' Sanon, because, she is that one elegant actress of Bollywood who sets the social media on fire every time she uploads a picture. Apart from being a talented and bold actress, she also has this magnetic personality that she carries with herself. It is only after looking into her dreamy eyes that we realize, what is it like to be mesmerized. Her enchanting looks make us feel like, ‘Bhagwan ne ussey badi fursat se banaya hai'. Every outfit she wears, gets a finishing touch not by the accessories or jewellery, but only by her beauty. She gives all fashionista vibes every time she dresses up and her fans always fall head over heels in love with her! Be it a casual, ethnic or airport look, she knows well how to rock them all. There is no doubt about how beautiful she looks in everything she wears and the below compilation of her Instagram posts are the ultimate proof for this. Take a look at the pictures below:

       Agree it or not, but Bollywood movies have a great impact on our lives. It is the story, the songs and the characters that influence us in many good ways. There are many inspirational bollywood movies which contribute in transforming our lives and again, there are many characters from these movies who teach us so many things about life. When it comes to getting some valuable life lessons, these characters are the best teachers. I'm sure many of you must be looking up onto them to get some 'gyaan' about the beauty of life. Here's a list of some of my favourite zestful characters from some of the best bollywood movies. 

1) Aman (from- Kal Ho Naa Ho):

Image source: Dharma Productions

He has to be on the top of the list! He just deserves it. Kal Ho Naa Ho is one of those movies which has a permanent place in so many people's heart and Aman lives in our hearts rent free and he will stay there forever. I guess no one could have been a better choice than Shah Rukh Khan to play Aman's character. Aman is that person who takes us on an emotional roller-coaster throughout the film, right from giggles to laughs and then, there comes a point where tears just can't stop rolling down our cheeks. Aman is the one amiable character who teaches us a lot about life. The biggest lesson he gives us is to be grateful for whatever we have and learn to live life and love life, because, we never know if there's a tomorrow. His dialogue, "suno, jiyo, khush raho, muskurao, kya pata, kal ho naa ho" says it all. I think there's no need to elaborate his teachings further. 

2) Rancho (from- 3 Idiots):

Image source: Aamir Khan Productions

Rancho- the mischievous, exuberant and adorable boy who sees life from a different perspective. He is that one guy who taught us, "Excellence ka peecha karo, success jhak maar ke tumhare peeche aayegi." He gives us so many valuable lessons of life which include: (i) Kaamyab hone ke liye nahi, kaabil hone ke liye padho, (ii) Future se itna daroge toh kya khaak jiyoge, (iii) All Is Well. Indeed, we all need a Baba Ranchoddas in our lives for learning to live life to the fullest and stop worrying about the unnecessary things. 

3) Geet (from- Jab We Met):

The 'Bhatinda Ki Sikhni- Geet', is a feisty girl. The one who catches a running train, talks non-stop, speaks her heart out and is also in love with life and herself. Her dialogue, "Main apni favourite hoon" has become each and everyone's dialogue these days because, she is the one who encouraged us to love ourselves. She teaches us not to overthink about each and every situation and always be happy in life. To be honest, whenever there is a situation in my life which is actually not going to matter much to me and whenever I find myself overthinking in such situations, I recall Geet's dialogue from the scene where she and Aditya hide on the terrace of her house to save themselves from her family, where she tells Aditya, "yeh jo waqt hai na yahaan, jo hum kaat rahe hai, bohot acha time hai, dekhna, aage chalkar hum isse yaad karenge aur hasenge" and I myself can't believe that it has been true in so many situations in my life which never needed that overthinking.

Another beautiful character portrayed by Kareena Kapoor Khan which somewhat resembles Geet. Rianna, a 26 years old girl, who wanted to be a ballet dancer. But then, life had some different plans for her due to which she ended up being a hairstylist. Yet, she never hates life and surely knows how the make the most of every living moment. She then meets Rahul- a dull and young architect whose life is transformed completely after Rianna's entry into his life. Rianna changes his mentality, his personality and yes, also his hairstyle. Directly or indirectly, the lessons which she gives to Rahul have a lasting impact on us as well. She says it's ok to be average and tells how being average is nothing to worry about and also the one beauty of average people, "ke vo kuch bhi kam ya zyaada nahi karte, aur yeh quality bohot kam logo mein hoti hai."
