This film starred Dev Anand and Nutan. I love this film and the soundtrack. I still remember that song called ‘Dil Ka Bhanwar Kare Pukaar’, which was shot at Qutub Minar. You’re not even allowed to shoot there now. - DirectorJoe SwanbergStarsOlivia WildeJake JohnsonAnna KendrickLuke and Kate are coworkers at a brewery who spend their nights drinking and flirting heavily.

This movie is not a classic. It changed my take on how I wanted to approach performances. The director is one of the people who initiated the mumblecore filmmaking in America. It’s a modern take on male-female relationships but is not a romantic comedy. The movie tries to explore the line between friendship and physical attraction. It has no shock value and is very real in its structure. It’s a very unconventional screenplay and I think that is what I really liked. It’s not about twists and turns, rather it is about internal conflicts. The camera style in this film is very personal and intimate. - DirectorPedro AlmodóvarStarsRosario FloresJavier CámaraDarío GrandinettiTwo men share an odd friendship while they care for two women who are both in deep comas.Recommended by: Baradwaj Rangan

This 2002 film is one of the most twisted and most obsessive love stories of all time. The narrative is about two men who strike up a friendship in the hospital because their wives are in a coma. Talk to Her is about the mysteries of human behaviour, which is what we call life at the end of the day. - DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsAustin StokerDarwin JostonLaurie ZimmerA Highway Patrol Officer, two criminals and a station secretary defend a defunct Los Angeles precinct office against a siege by a bloodthirsty street gang.Recommended by: Patrick Graham
One of the daddies of siege-thrillers. This film is just so cool, understated and sinister to this very day. With one of the best film-scores ever made and a coldness and matter-of-factness to it that just seems to work. Whenever I’m thinking of siege-thrillers and trying to come up with ideas I have the amazing score by John Carpenter pumping from my speakers full blast. Fuck my neighbours. - DirectorElia KazanStarsVivien LeighMarlon BrandoKim HunterDisturbed Blanche DuBois moves in with her sister in New Orleans and is tormented by her brutish brother-in-law while her reality crumbles around her.Recommended by: Imtiaz Ali
It really felt like Marlon Brando was going through the emotions of his character and the relationship this man was in. It felt so strong and passionate. - DirectorGuru DuttStarsWaheeda RehmanGuru DuttKumari NaazSuresh Sinha, a famous director, discovers star potential in Shanti, a woman he stumbled into one rainy evening, and casts her as the lead in a film.

I love a lot of the films of that era but this one had an everlasting impact on me. Hyderabad has a mixed culture so I saw some Hindi films while growing up like Tezaab and Sholay. I consciously started watching older Hindi films only a few years back. This was when I was making ads and before I got down to making my first film. At that time, I was trying to consume as much cinema as possible. - DirectorSpike JonzeStarsNicolas CageMeryl StreepChris CooperA lovelorn screenwriter becomes desperate as he tries and fails to adapt 'The Orchid Thief' by Susan Orlean for the screen.Jeff ander fav 4

This is by one of our favourite screenwriters, Charlie Kaufman. We seem to get attracted to films that are self-aware (as you can see from this list). You can’t go more meta than this film. It’s about Charlie Kaufman being hired to write a movie and ending up putting himself in it, writing a movie about him being hired to write a movie and ends up putting himself in it. - DirectorCristian MungiuStarsAnamaria MarincaLaura VasiliuVlad IvanovA woman assists her friend in arranging an illegal abortion in 1980s Romania.
