Beyond the Blockbusters: Five Indian Films More People Should See

Some films cross borders the way mist drifts over the Ganges at dawn — soft, slow, and almost invisible until you notice the chill on your skin. They don't fight for your attention. They wait, sure-footed, telling their stories frame by frame, patient as the river. Indian cinema isn't just glossy musicals and box-office thunder; it's also bruised knuckles, small rebellions, and laughter cut with ache. A selection as spicy as its signature dishes. But most nights, we keep scrolling. Headlines bark about global hits. Trailers roll by. And those quieter films sit in the shadows of streaming menus — waiting. It's fitting, in a way, that we miss them while checking messages, tracking scores, or half-watching the flicker of online baccarat in another tab. Yet beyond the neon and noise, these films hold stories stitched from sweat, stubborn hope, and a refusal to look away. Court (2014): A Silence Louder Than Verdicts Some stories don't shout. Court doesn't bother with grand speeches or last-minute evidence that saves the day. Instead, it shows hearings postponed, lawyers drained by routine, and a system that grinds on, patient as stone. The accused, a folk singer charged under anti-terror laws, barely seems the centre of the film. The real subject is the machinery itself — how slow it turns, and how power lies in its slowness. The genius here is in the dust on the windowsill, the broken fan spinning overhead, the judge's sigh at yet another adjournment. It leaves you uneasy, because the system isn't failing; it's working exactly as built. When the credits roll, there's no triumph — just the quiet realisation you've seen something true. Udaan (2010): Escape Written in Small Letters Udaan is rebellion without fireworks. A teenage boy thrown out of boarding school returns to an industrial town and a father forged in iron and anger. The boy writes poetry; the father wants him to work steel. Between them hangs every unsaid insult, every rule meant to be broken. What makes Udaan sing isn't plot — it's how it lingers on brick walls at dawn, empty classrooms steeped in regret, and the raw courage it takes to choose your own path. It understands that rebellion isn't always loud; sometimes it's packing a bag in silence and walking toward what scares you most. And somewhere in those grey alleys, it finds hope. The Lunchbox (2013): Love Served Cold and Honest A misdelivered lunchbox in Mumbai. Notes passed between strangers. That's all it takes. The Lunchbox never raises its voice. Instead, it lets love grow quietly between the clink of cutlery and the hiss of city trains. Every curry leaf, every steam curl feels like part of a shared ritual. It's the sort of film that makes you think of small, unexpected moments: a forgotten letter, a late-night message from someone you thought was gone, or an idle chat while half-watching online baccarat. Fragile connections. Easily missed, but impossible to forget once made. Ship of Theseus (2013): Questions That Refuse Answers If every plank of a ship is replaced, is it still the same ship? Ship of Theseus takes this question and turns it into cinema. Three stories: a blind photographer who regains sight, a monk fighting for animal rights, and a stockbroker chasing stolen organs. Each tale asks what makes us who we are. It doesn't offer clean answers. And that's the point. Some scenes drift close to abstraction; others hit with intimate force. But it stays with you, unsettling and oddly comforting at once. In a world trained to pounce on rumors and quick takes, Ship of Theseus offers the rare pleasure of not knowing — and realising that might be enough. Masaan (2015): Ashes, Shame, and Small Beginnings Masaan is set on the ghats of Varanasi, where the living brush against death every day. Two threads: a girl fighting the weight of scandal and a boy who falls in love across caste lines. Tragedy comes early, but the film isn't really about grief. It's about what comes after. There's a tenderness here, even in scenes filled with ash and funeral smoke. The Ganges carries away more than bodies; it carries guilt, secrets, and sometimes a chance to begin again. By the final shot, you see not endings but quiet, stubborn rebirth. Why These Stories Matter They don't chase applause. They trade spectacle for scars, explosions for silences that say more. They pull back the curtain on places tourists don't see: cramped courtrooms, small-town bedrooms, railway canteens at dawn. And they ask us to look — not as critics, but as witnesses. In a feed packed with trailers, memes, and hot takes, these films offer a different kind of entertainment — one that sits with you long after the screen goes black. They're reminders that cinema can do more than distract; it can reveal, question, and sometimes, quietly heal.

Suniel Shetty says star kids have to work harder today as 'everybody is a critic' now: 'It's critical bashing going on'

Suniel Shetty has been in the film industry for over three decades. Having begun as an action star, he found success as a villain too, and is now enjoying fame on streaming as well. In a conversation with HT while promoting the second season of his show, Hunter, the veteran star spoke about the change in times from when he started to now. Suniel Shetty with his children, actors Athiya Shetty and Ahan Shetty. Early in his career in the 90s, Suniel Shetty faced resistance for his unorthodox looks, with many saying he didn't 'look like' a hero. The actor agrees that outsiders - those who had no film background - often faced bigger pressures while starting out. However, he says that as compared to 30 years ago, star kids find it more difficult to succeed now. On star kids' struggles "The kids have to work harder to prove. Earlier, they took it for granted that I'd be a part of this. This is my hierarchy, and I'd be a part of this. Today, the kid knows to educate (themselves) and come prepared as an actor, with their acting, body, and everything else. You need to be absolutely prepared. Go to school and come; don't believe you can walk into high school and college without finishing the basics," says the actor. He says the reason star kids find it tougher is partially because of the competition, but also because of the scathing feedback that comes their way from the audience. "Everybody is judgmental. Everybody believes they are a critic. And it's not critical appreciation of cinema. It's critical trashing of cinema that's going on," he says. Athiya and Ahan Shetty's careers Both of Suniel Shetty's children - Athiya and Ahan - made their debut in films over the last few years. Athiya started her acting career with Hero in 2015, before appearing in three more films. She eventually retired from acting quietly after her last film - Motichoor Chaknachoor (2019) - did not work at the box office. Ahan debuted with Tadap in 2021, and currently has Border 2 and Sanki lined up for release next year. Suniel was most recently seen in the Amazon MXPlayer show Hunter. Season 2 also stars Jackie Shroff, Anusha Dandekar, and Barkha Bisht in lead roles.
