Popular Bollywood films (in reverse chronological order)

No claim is made that these are the best Bollywood movies, though many of fans' all-time favorites will be found on this list. However, the non-Indian explorer of Indian cinema will learn a fair bit about Bollywood history and conventions by watching these films. The list is biased towards recent films, but this may be an advantage for some users of the list, as the recent films are more likely to be found in video rental stores. Submissions of notable older films are invited.

The capsule reviews are written in the usual brief television-film-schedule style. More complete reviews, lists of stars and director, &c., can be found by clicking on links to films that have their own pages.
