‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’ (1995)
A classic love story that redefined romance in Bollywood. Raj and Simran fall in love during a trip to Europe but face cultural and familial obstacles back home. It’s all about love, family, and standing up for what you want — an iconic film that still runs in theatres!

‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!’ (1994)

‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’ (1992)
It’s giving small-town underdog energy. Aamir Khan stars in this coming-of-age sports drama where sibling love, rivalries, and one epic cycling race will make you cheer, cry, and maybe even want to work out for a day.

‘Rangeela’ (1995)
All the drama queens (and kings) unite because this is for you. Urmila Matondkar owns the screen as Mili, a girl torn between a superstar and her childhood bestie. Throw in AR Rahman’s soundtrack, and it’s the perfect mix of glam and feels.

‘Baazigar’ (1993)
The moment SRK said, “Main har cheez haar kar jeetne waalon mein se hoon,” we were hooked. This dark thriller is all about revenge, betrayal, and the ultimate anti-hero vibes. It’s proof that Shah Rukh Khan is king in every role.

‘Andaz Apna Apna’ (1994)
The cult comedy to end all comedies. Amar and Prem are two broke boys trying to marry a rich heiress, but their misadventures lead to total chaos. If you haven’t quoted “Teja main hoon, mark idhar hai,” you’re doing it wrong.

‘Lamhe’ (1991)
Way ahead of its time, this love story dives into complicated relationships and unconventional love. Viren falls for Pallavi, but years later, it’s her daughter, Pooja, who truly steals his heart. It’s all about emotions, stunning visuals and bold storytelling.

‘Judwaa’ (1997)
Before Varun Dhawan’s Judwaa 2, Salman Khan was the OG Judwaa. This comedy of errors, with goofy twins, iconic songs like Tan Tana Tan, and peak 90s humor, is pure chaos in the best way possible.

‘Dil To Pagal Hai’ (1997)
A love story for the dreamers. Rahul is all about destiny, dance and romance as he finds himself in a love triangle with Pooja and Nisha. The dance numbers are straight-up goals, and the outfits scream 90s chic.

‘Dil Se’ (1998)
If love at first sight had a moody, dramatic, and slightly dangerous vibe, it would be this film. Starring Shah Rukh Khan and Manisha Koirala, Dil Se is all about epic romance, rebellion, and the OG train-top dance number to Chaiyya Chaiyya.
