5 Movies That You Should Binge-Watch This Weekend

It’s the weekend and basically you have two options in case you’re free.

You can go out, get fresh air and meet people. This is understandable as after spending the entire week slogging, you can finally stretch your legs and do something different.

But sometimes you’re just tired and want to relax in front of your T.V. This is perfectly reasonable too. All the socialising and moving around that you are thinking of doing this weekend requires a lot of energy. And energy is something lacking by the time weekend comes.

Hence, a magical solution: Binge-watching. As nothing can relax your soul quite as well as lying on your couch and watching movie-after-movie can do.

Presenting a list of movies you should binge-watch this weekend—and the order in which you should watch them. So that by the Monday comes, you are healed of your tiredness and raring to go.

Start with something engaging: Kahaani

Now that Te3n is in theatres, we have our Kolkata feels back. Kahaani, which also stars Vidya Balan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, the movie became a sensation when it was released in 2012. Utilising the Kolkata backdrop, the movie tells a story a young widow who is out to find some answers. Bollywood has rarely done suspense so well.

Now that you are hooked, delve into something twisted: Titli

One of the highest acclaimed movies of 2015, Titli was also one of the most twisted movies about family you’ll ever see. Though, at times, it would get difficult to watch, but that is part of the idea. Power through, and you would have watched one of the most unforgettable movies of your life.

Lighten things up: English Vinglish

Now that you are soaked in seriousness, it’s best to ease the mood. And there is no easy way to do that than with an entertaining blockbuster. But instead of opting for one of the obvious choices, try something refreshingly different. Enter: Sridevi’s English Vinglish. This movie will charm you and make you laugh, largely because of Sridevi’s winning performance.

Get emotional: Masaan

In case you have been unlucky to not to have watched this gem of a movie, watch it now. Set-up in the holy land of Banaras, this movie will grab every bit of your attention right from the start. You will be guided through stories of love, family and loss and be prepared to get emotional.

End it by getting inspired: Udaan

This movie won a lot of hearts when it was released in 2010. From getting showcased at Cannes to winning several Filmfare awards, this coming-of-the-age story impressed each and all—and rightly so. What causes an 18-year-old boy to leave his home; the answer is simple: His dreams.
