When Ranbir Kapoor Sings Channa Mereya: Ae Dil Hai Mushkil
Oh, this song, this damn song! It’s an ode to that old lover who is no longer there in your life. You have to leave them, move on, but their memories are just too painful to be forgotten. Arijit Singh’s voice and Ranbir Kapoor’s eyes have said it all. NGL, every time we hear this track, it hits us right in our hearts. Also, the way Aishwarya Rai Bachchan consoles Ranbir at the airport? It gets me every single time!
When Deepika Padukone Consoles Ranbir In Agar Tum Saath Ho: Tamaasha
Irshad Kamil, the lyricist of Agar Tum Sath Ho, created magic with his words. From “Teri nazaron mein hai tere sapne, tere sapno mein hai narazi” to “Tum saath ho, ya na ho, kya fark hai,” the entire song feels so personal. Ranbir’s sadness and Deepika Padukone’s helplessness make this scene so hauntingly emotional.
When Alia Bhatt Gets Bashed By Her Parents: Gully Boy
A lot of times, Bollywood goes way overboard and end up with scenes that are quite unrealistic. I mean, sure, we all want to believe that our parents will understand us when we say that we want freedom in our lives. But in reality, things may not be that simple in a lot of families. The moment when Alia Bhatt gave her monologue in Gully Boy and said that she wanted to go out with friends was quite a touching scene. TBH, we all thought that her mother would have a change of heart.
Hmm… What followed next was not what we expected. This isn’t going to make you cry, but you will defs feel a tinge of sadness.

Whenever Darsheel Safary Cries: Taare Zameen Par
Umm… Is there any scene in Taare Zameen Par that doesn’t make us emotional? I don’t think so. Darsheel Safary’s teary eyes when he was dropped at his boarding school made me cry so hard. And, even harder whenever he missed his mother. No, I’m not crying RN, you are!
When Ranbir Finds Priyanka Chopra In The End: Barfi
This is such a beautiful scene! Ileana D’Cruz would have created a hate club if she hadn’t informed Ranbir that Priyanka Chopra was calling him from the window. But, thank god she did, and thank god they reunited. Happy endings can melt our hearts any day.
When Aamir Khan & His Gang Die: Rang De Basanti
Rang De Basanti is not just a movie, it’s a feeling. But when Aamir Khan and his gang die in the end? That causes all the waterworks. No matter how many times I watch it, it still breaks my heart. It’s patriotic, revolutionary, and too painful to watch without crying like a baby.
