Dharmatma
Dharmatma has to be on your watchlist if you love action-thrillers and prefer storylines on gangsters and family dramas. This iconic movie marks the beginning of stories inspired by the ‘Godfather’ and has managed to brilliantly transform it for the Indian audiences for generations to come.
Starring the evergreen Hema Malini and the late actor Feroz Khan along with Rekha and Premnath Malhotra, Dharmatma is a classic story about clash of ideologies between father Dharamdas (Premnath Malhotra), living the life of a gangster and his idealistic son Ranbir essayed by Feroz Khan, who threatens to expose his criminal activities. Amidst the rift between the two, blooms a love story between Reshma (Hema Malini) and Ranbir (Feroz Khan).

Naam offers the best on-screen bromance between Vicky and Ravi (Kumar Gaurav) along with Nutan as the classic Indian mother.
