The steady speed of the car, the comfort of its seat, beautiful sights from the window, the cool breeze, and the world moving by.
All this makes for the best travel experience to get a break. It’s not always possible to go on a road trip. But, Bollywood Movies come to the rescue by letting us experience that within 2 hours through their films.
If you are someone who likes to travel, we have listed the 6 Bollywood Road trip movies that will make you yearn for one:
1. Jab We Met
Road Trips are an ideal way to rejuvenate yourself naturally and find your lost purpose in life. This interesting journey feels more complete when you unintentionally meet a person who happens to show you a new perspective on life.
The authentic Indian destinations, Forts, Valleys, palaces, and farms give you a glimpse of real India that has made a special place in our lives. The unmissable chemistry of the lead pair, chart-topping music, and relatable characters make it a must-watch.
2. Highway
A Road trip can help you uncover your inner fears and vulnerabilities that you have been hiding in disguise. This concept is explored in Highway, where Veera (Alia Bhatt) from a wealthy family is abducted before her wedding.
But the situation changes when she feels liberated in this scenario. The kidnappers decide to take her from Mumbai to Kashmir on a road trip, and it allows Veera to share the deep secrets from her past.
The film takes you from the rolling hills of Himachal to the Valleys of Kashmir, the greenery of Punjab to the Lakes of Rajasthan, showing you the best of northwest India.
3. Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara
At some point in our college, we all plan to have a Road trip with our friends someday. It’s another debate on whether we can have it or not. But a similar plot is explored in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.
Three friends who are busy in their separate strides of life during their 30s come together to materialize the travel promises they made during their college years.
Their Road Trips, adventures in Spain, outbursts, and memories make this film a wholesome watch.
In addition, they overcome their fears and reignite their friendships among the beautiful Spanish landscapes that will compel you to take a Road trip with your friends.
4. Piku
A father-daughter relationship is unlike any other relationship. This beautiful banter is portrayed realistically in Piku. Due to some reason, Piku and her father Bhaskor book a taxi for a journey from Delhi to Kolkata.
During their journey, they go through some bittersweet moments in their relationships and have some grave realizations.
In terms of the trip, we get to see the beautiful Yamuna Expressway, the lanes of Kolkata, the streets of Varanasi at Night, and the Hooghly River. Piku was a successful film and received many awards for its amazing direction, realistic characters, and brilliant storytelling.
5. Karwaan
The majority of Road Trip films either cover North India, given its geographical diversity from deserts and fans to hills, or International destinations. But one film that will take you through the gorgeous locations of South India is Karwaan.
This light-hearted film with talented actors has a relatively simple yet impactful story. Three people happen to come together for a road trip, given their respective situations. They take us through serene locations of Kerala, Ooty, Thrissur, etc, with soulful music that will fill your heart.
Summing up,
It’s not every day that you get to see a road trip film. But, Bollywood has managed to deal with this theme with complete justice. Taking us through some of the authentic and diverse locations, they give us important life lessons.
They have a mix of soulful music, heartwarming scenes, breathtaking locations, and a fulfilling road trip. When you watch these films, you will surely yearn to take a Road Trip yourself through the diverse locations of India and overseas.
