Barishain aur aik garam chai ki piyali

How about we top this iconic duo with movies you can watch while listening to the splatter of rain outside your window. 

WHY WATCH MOVIES  RATHER THAN WATCH THE RAIN?

Movies are a source of entertainment for most of us. We love watching them and pretending we are one of the main characters. Getting wet in the rain is another ecstatic experience, but if it is raining cats and dogs day and night, you might as well watch a movie. A movie that will give you peace and comfort and go well with a steamy cup of garam chai. 

 

Here are some movies you can watch while cozy-ed up in your blanket. 

 

The Breakfast Club

A story about five school teens figuring themselves out. It’s a coming-of-age movie mixed with laughter, crying, and the real meaning of friendship. The Breakfast Club resonates with teenagers and how misjudged they feel and how they can be so much more if they truly understand one another.

 

The HARRY POTTER Series 

Harry Potter is the TO-GO for a rainy day fiasco. If you’re feeling sad or glum, Mr. Potter alongside Hermoine and Ron will be there to cheer you up. Adventures of the iconic trio fighting the one-who-should-not-be-named are a comfort to the heart and soul.

 

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara 

Friends! Friends who turn into family, friends who are there till the end, and friends who never leave your side. Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara is a classic excerpt of how in the midst of the chaos of authentic living, a refresher is needed to feel sane.

 

Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Ghum

K3G has us in a chokehold. The songs, the cinematography, and the respect for family values. K3G is a 3-hour-long comfort movie that is unbeatable to this date. P.S: for the longest time we were made to believe that Khan and Amitabh were really a father-son duo. 

 

Cake 

Pakistani movies are as good as other industries. Sarmad Khoosat’s Cake is a blockbuster hit among peers and the new cinephile generation. A story about how the family has your back like no other, no matter how far away you are, and no matter how much you dislike them, they will always be by your side.
