Jab We Met

What even is Bollywood without its lighthearted early 2000s rom-coms? Jab We Met explores how the notion of love overshadows right and wrong. With the Tum Se Hi rain dance, it’s the kind of movie to pair with a cup of chai. Geet and Aditya, though worlds apart and walking different paths, somehow find each other in this heartwarming rollercoaster of a movie.

Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind’s bittersweet storyline delves into the aftermath of a painful breakup and the desperate attempt to erase a once-meaningful relationship from memory, using rain as a metaphor.

A movie starring Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts in the ’90s? Strap yourselves in. The love interests, leading contrasting lives, find a place in their lives for each other despite their social status disparity. Notting Hill calls for rainy weather, a hot beverage and a box of tissues.

Singin’ In The Rain

Singin’ in the Rain, released in 1952, is a classic American musical-comedy film depicting an era of transition from silent films to talkies. Filled with iconic performances, romance and a whole lot of singing in the rain, this film remains a pivotal musical in Hollywood history.

Underling the importance of taking responsibility while finding your calling, this is known for its “Mumbai ki baarish” scenes and cool soundtrack that includes the hit Iktara. Wake Up Sid associates the rain with love and revelation. A comfort watch for any day, for that matter.
