1. Drama- if you guys are looking to watch more of Yash's films, this is a great one, it's one of his early appearances when he first joined the Kannada film industry. and it was amazing, the amount of comedy in this movie is amazing, and of course, the story is quite different than what you guys usually see.

2. Gaalipata- oh my god, this movie has been so popular for so long and the sequel to this movie is coming out really soon!

Ganesh, Diganth, and Kitty arrive in Mugilupete to stay at Diganth's grandfather's farmhouse. However, there Ganesh falls in love with Sowmya, a widow who stays with her in-laws, Kodandaram and Padma. and the songs in this movie are so iconic, this movie was released in 2008, 14 years ago, and I actually didn't realize but this movie was also directed by yograj bhat, the proof that he creates amazing unforgettable movies that all of us love. Gaalipata is a 2008 Indian romantic comedy-drama film written and directed by Yogaraj Bhat. the actors have done their jobs amazingly. and if you guys wanna watch gaalipata, it's on Disney plus Hotstar.

4. Jackie- oh my god, Jackie is one of my favorite films, man Puneeth Rajkumar sure knows how to pick em... the movies I mean- Jackie is a man who lives by his wits and reaches out to people to solve their problems. But he lands himself in trouble when he is suspected of helping a priest's daughter elope with her lover. and I can't even describe any of the songs. they're so amazing, and the dialogues are top-notch, and the story, the comedy, and the friendship with Rangayana Raghu. and his innocence in this film is just so adorable. and oh my god it was beautiful. and of course, everyone knows the most iconic song in this movie... Jackie. now it doesn't matter if you're a Kannadiga or not but if you live in Karnataka at least you must've definitely heard this song at least once. and if you're a Kannadiga who hasn't heard this song, are you even a Kannadiga at all?

5.  love mocktail: I've been talking about a lot of old movies, let's get into the millennial side of the movies now. I'm sure you guys must have heard of this movie, it became viral in 2020 and everyone i knew had seen this movie, and to everyone who hasn't seen it, you guys probably don't know the story, its about aditya who keeps finding love in different stages of his life, and when none of those work out he finds this someone else and realises how much she cares for him and falls in love with him, and you guys have to find out what happens next... 
After rescuing a woman, Adi reminisces about his love life and tells her about all the heartbreaks he endured in his quest to find his true love. Love Mocktail is a 2020 Indian Kannada-language romantic drama film directed and written by Darling Krishna in his directorial debut. i love the songs in this movie by raghu dixit, really melodious and pleasant. this is probably my 4th favourite movie (after titanic, paramathma and jackie of course) every single scene of adi and nidhi gives you butterflies in your stomach, and it makes you realise the special and small moments in life are the most important and those who really matter. love mocktail is on amazon prime if you guys wanna watch it. 


6. upendra- yeah i know the name is the name of the actor in this movie. the movie is really good. and i believe this movie has 3 love interests so...and there are also 3 different stories and in each different story he learns something different.. or a different moral, and the end is quite unexpected. Upendra is a 1999 Indian Kannada-language psychological thriller film written and directed by Upendra. It starred Upendra, Raveena Tandon, Prema and Damini. it came out in 1999. there was one dialouge in this movie that made me sure that i loved this movie for sure, yeah it includes titanic. of course it does.Upendra is a 1999 Indian Kannada-language psychological thriller film written and directed by Upendra. It starred Upendra, Raveena Tandon, Prema and Damini. and the song i love to use in certtian circumstances called MTV subbalakshmige bari olu is also from this movie, which means lying or rather bluffing. and the song was super popular in the 90's as well and so was the movie. which is why a second part to upendra came out called uppi but if I'm being honest, the first movie is so much better than the second movie. not saying the second movie wasn't nice or that i didn't like it but the first movie is so much better, it has much more story and much more plot in it, the second movie is.... well just kind of very unrealistic i guess, and of course upendra is also very unrealistic, like watch the movie you'll understand. but its unrealistic in a kind of way that means something but uppi is just unrealistic in a way that makes no sense. and I'm also not going to say everyone is going to and will like this movie but its amazing in a way mostly people with a sharp mind get. (or at least that's what they say ;)   )  and upendra is on sun nxt if you guys wanna watch it. 



7. Mr and Mrs Ramachari- oh my god this movie is so amazing i love this movie so much, this is definitely my 5th favourite movie, the father and son sentiment, the romande and the love and the heartbreak, everything is just so emotional and has meaning. and the songs are the best part. my personal favorite is the title song of course, and there's that line in the song, nor adi cut outge haara biddahaagide hudgni neenu bandamele. After Divya becomes a victim of college bullies, Ramachari saves her and they fall in love. However, they part ways when Divya begins to question his way of life.Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari is a 2014 Indian Kannada romantic action comedy film written and directed by Santhosh Ananddram. the story is so simple yet is very emotional and relatable and it makes you connect to the characters on so many levels. which is why this movie is so popular. and it came out in 2017. and well there's another reason i love this movie so much.... my mom's brother was in this movie, so well a proud moment. mr and Mrs ramachari is on youtube and sun nxt if you guys wanna watch it. 



8.  paramathma- oh my god this movie is the best, paramathma is also in my favourite's list of course, the story is about a really rich guy who's in college with his friends and one of his close friends likes him but he has his heart set on another girl. Param is a rich young man who falls in love with Deepa. He soon discovers that his friend Sanvi is in love with him and tries to clear the air between them. Paramathma is a 2011 Indian Kannada-language romantic comedy film written, directed and co-produced by Yogaraj Bhat. yeah most of the best movies are directed by yograj bhat. and the songs in this movie are indescribable. there's that one song called college gate, and it was popular amongst college students and high school students in 2011. which is when it was released. I've grown up watching puneeth rajkumar's movies, and when i rewatched this one it definetly hit different, on an emotional level. and the love story, the romance and the friendship and everything is just on a whole different level. paramathma is on disney plus hotstar if you guys wanna watch it. 



9. googly- this movie is also definetly one of my favourite movies of all time, well you can also call this movie the greatest of all time. every kannadiga has seen this movie, and its so good, again the romantic aspects in this movie is so beautiful and relatable and the heartbreak oh my god. and the songs are groovy and you cant stop listening to them. especially the googly song. Googly is a 2013 Indian Kannada language romantic comedy film directed by Pavan Wadeyar and produced by Jayanna Combines, starring Yash and Kriti Kharbanda.Sharath and Swathi meet in Bangalore and fall in love but due to misunderstandings, they drift apart. However, few years later, destiny brings them face to face at a friend's wedding. googly is on sun nxt and youtube if you guys wanna watch it. 



10. Rajakumara- and the last but definetly not the least, rajakumara his movie is amazing, it is literally perfect. however you may describe perfect as. the story is about a rich adopted guy, with a perfect family and who has an amazing relathionship with his dad. but he falls in love with a girl, but his father wants him to get married to someone else, After losing his family, Siddharth learns about the various issues that they faced. He decides to take care of the people at an old age home but Jagannath attempts to foil his plans. this is the same director who shot Mr and Mrs Ramachari hence it being such a big success. siddhart's kind heart and the way he treats everyone with care and concern in the old age home, it's all astonishing. Raajakumara ( transl. The Prince) is a 2017 Indian Kannada language action drama film written and directed
