Here are some movies in my must watch list, irrespective of their commercial success or critical acclaim or publicity and not in any order of preference. First. some Indian Films , again not in any particular order of preference, genre, commercial success or any similar benchmark.

They are good movies , each having at least one element of film making that is absolutely outstanding.

Clearly, these lists are not exhaustive enough, there are more films , and they keep adding. Some notable mentions are missing from the last five or seven years, I will keep adding them as they sustain the “Epic” status, which in some ways transcends time.
