A cozy snuggle while watching a happy, mushy movie along with some good wine, is bound to make you both feel in love, more than ever.

We have come up with a list of all-time favourite, 10 romantic movies that will make your Valentine’s Day date night magical and unforgettable. Take your pick.

50 First Dates

Lucy’s short-term memory loss makes it difficult for Henry to take their relationship further, but he refuses to give up and goes on to have 50 first dates with her until he finally finds a way to help her catch up on their love everyday as she forgets.

Why you should watch it: Simply because it is one of the most adorable love stories that tells you that when you are really in love, no problem is big enough to stop you from being with the one you love.

The Runaway Bride
It is the story of Maggie who runs away thrice from the altar and gains the reputation of being a runaway bride. People see her as a heart-breaker, non-sensitive woman, but little did anyone realise (not even her) that it is her fears about the marriage not being perfect or she might marry the wrong guy, that makes her run away every time.

Why you should watch it: If commitment is already cropping up in your mind and you feel your girl has inhibitions about the idea of commitment, this movie will certainly make her think again. And you never know, she may sway in your favour after watching it. That will be great, if that is what you want too.

The Theory of Everything
Here’s a love story of a physicist Stephen Hawking and his fellow collegian Jane Wilde, where the physicist is working on a revolutionary project while battling critical motor neuron disease. It is clearly a tale of unshakable love, defying terrible odds and breaking new ground in the fields of medicine and science.

Why you should watch it: Because there is not a better fusion of love story and science, that will keep you gripped till the end. This one is for your heart and your brain both.


About Time
A beautiful love story where Tim Lake makes use of his special ability, goes back in time and changes the events to win over his love. He also realises how life is all about living with your loved ones both in good and bad times and not only about chocolate-flavoured moments, and decides to give up time travel forever.

Why you should watch it: Because it has lots of moments that will make you both realise how love is about enjoying the ride of life together. If you have been worried with the ups and downs of the relationship, this one will be an ideal watch.


Pretty Woman
This can clearly be called the modern version of Cinderella, where a wealthy rich businessman falls for a rusty hooker.

Why you should watch it: Because it is a typical fairy tale romance that will make your girl go week in her knees. Not to forget, the sneak peek it will give you in a girl’s mind and what she always wants in a relationship.

Just Like Heaven
An extraordinary love story between a widowed architect and the ghost of a woman, the previous tenant of the house in which he lives now. This is not plain simple love story but one which takes you on a laughing riot as well as an emotional roller coaster with a happy surprise in the end.

Why you should watch it: Because it is cute, hilarious, adorable even a bit spooky, and also has a storyline that keeps you curious till the end.

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ)

This iconic love story of Raj and Simran that starts in Europe and reaches its happy ending in Punjab, India has all the colours of love, beautiful locales and amazing songs.

Why you should watch it: Because there is no other love story like Raj and Simran. These two characters – Raj and Simran - are for Hindi movies what Romeo and Juliet are for English literature.

Jab We Met

A cute, fun love story that also gives an important message to follow your heart, not just in love but in everything else you do.

Why you should watch it: It will make you laugh, it will make you cry (only a little) and it will leave you feeling happy. Plus, the foot-tapping songs will give ample opportunities for both of you to express your love.

Socha Na Tha

A movie that proves ‘never say never’ in love as you can fall in love with anyone anywhere.

Why you should watch it: Because it is a chirpy and light-hearted love story which will make you both laugh and feel the love. If you don’t like teary-eyed drama breaks in between a love story, this one will be a perfect watch for the V Day date night.

Maine Pyar Kiya

Boy meets girl, boy falls in loves with the girl but families play villain, until both boy and girl win over every hassle on the road to love.

Why you should watch it: If you and your girl are a fan of old world romance, this one will be the perfect treat.
