Friends are for life, and so are these movies!

Strong friendships make you feel the happiest, safe and secure and there’s nothing like having a friend staying by your side when you need somebody the most. Spending time with your friends can give you a glimpse into the most precious moments of your life. Some of the friendships you see on-screen leave a mark behind and inspire you to bond with your friends as well. Let’s take a look at some of the most iconic on-screen friendships of Bollywood movies.

2/8

3 Idiots

Rancho, Farhan and Raju are the epitome of a life-long friendship that inspires each other to be the best version of themselves. As the film navigates into the college life of the 3 students, it also shows an irreplaceable bond of friendship.

3/8

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara

These three finally made the trip to Spain, except this time it comes with a lot of restraints, emotional baggage and love. The three friends estranged due to life’s responsibilities find their bond once again within the landscapes of Spain and the Tomatina festival.

4/8

Sholay

The most iconic friendship of all time of Veeru and Jai reminds all of us of the friendship we have with our oldest and most trustworthy friend. It’s even a miracle to have a friendship like these two.

5/8

Sanju

Based on the real-life story of Sanjay Dutt, Sanjay and his dear friend Kamlesh tells us of a friendship that preaches love, trust and bond for life. Kamlesh stood as a dear friend to Sanjay when times got rough and never lost sight of him, even when things got rocky between them.

6/8

Dil Chahta Hai

This was the newfound wave of modern friendships in India that Akash, Sameer and Sid have shown us. They inspire us to believe in the purest bond of friendship.

7/8

Munna Bhai M.B.B.S

Munna Bhai and Circuit are two friends who will do anything for each other. This goon and his tag-along show the simplicity of their friendship in the most hilarious scenes and dialogues.

8/8

Rang De Basanti

The bravery of the four friends reminds us of a time when the only thing that mattered is friendship. Sticking together and voicing opinions against injustice is what all of us should take inspiration from.
