Best Films of Hrishikesh Mukherjee

Hrishikesh Mukherjee

Indian film director

Description

Hrishikesh Mukherjee was an Indian film director, editor and writer regarded as one of the greatest filmmakers of Indian cinema, known for a number of films, including Anari, Satyakam, Chupke Chupke. 

1. Anand

Anand is one of the greatest Indian films ever made. Anand also has an iconic Rajesh Khanna performance. From every time he said "Babu Moshai" to joyfully singing "Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli" 

2.Gol Maal

Hrishikesh Mukherjee was known for his comedies. This screwball comedy is considered his best as it not only has some memorable gags but some terrific dialogues. The words "Gol maal hai bhai sab gol maal hai" are quoted everywhere and that itself shows the lasting impact of this great film.

3. Chupke Chupke

Chupke Chupke is an extremely likeable and innocent comedy. Thanks to the wonderful performances of Dharmendra and Amitabh Bachchan this is a bonafide comic classic.

4. Bawarchi

Bawarchi was remade several years later as the Govinda film - Hero No. 1 (1997) but it didn't capture the beauty of the trademark Hrishi Da style. He made a great team with Rajesh Khanna and this film is a pristine example.

5.

Mili

Jaya Bhaduri played Mili, a girl suffering from pernicious anemia. This film made people fall in love with Mili in 1975 and continues to do so today.
