Bollywood Movies 2017: Full List of top movies to watch

2016 gave us some splendid movies including Dangal, Sultan, Airlift, Neerja, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Kapoor & sons, Udta Punjab, Dear Zindagi, MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, Rustom, Fan, Ki & Ka, Pink, Mohenjo Daro, Befikre, Shivaay, Baar Baar Dekho, Sarbjit, Dishoom, and Kahaani 2 among many others. Many of these went on to become blockbusters and many others won various awards. While Amitabh Bachchan won several awards for his exceptional performance in Pink, Alia Bhatt was honored with awards for her stunning performance in Udta Punjab. Box office wise, it was touted to be a good year for Bollywood and trade analysts hoped that the magic will carry forward to 2017. 

However, will 2017 weave the same magic as the year that passed? Well, a good clue would be to have a looksie at the movies that are lined up for the year. From the first glance though, they do look interesting! A few months into the year already, we are aware that some of the movies have already hit the bulls eye. The recently released Badrinath Ki Dulhania is slowly inching towards that 100 crore mark. The Shah Rukh Khan starrer and the Hrithik Roshan starrer Raees and Kaabil both fared well at the box office though they released on the same day. So, it does look like an interesting year once again. 

Here are some of the movies that you may want to keep an eye on. We can't wait for it already!
