From Raksha Bandhan To Dil Dhadakne Do: Top 7 Bollywood Movies To Watch On Bhai Dooj 2023

New Delhi: Bhai Dooj, also known as Yama Dwitiya, is a Hindu festival that celebrates the bond between brothers and sisters. It falls on the second day of the Shukla Paksha (bright fortnight) of the Hindu month of Kartika, which usually comes in October or November. On this day, sisters perform tilak on their brothers' foreheads and pray for their well-being. In return, brothers give gifts to their sisters.

Bollywood, the Hindi film industry, has produced many films that celebrate the Bhai Dooj festival. These films often portray the strong bond between brothers and sisters, and they often feature heartwarming and emotional scenes.

Here Are Some Of The Top Bollywood Films To Watch On Bhai Dooj:

1. Agneepath

Along the way, he makes friends with the criminal Rauf Lala (Rishi Kapoor) and develops feelings for the talkative Kaali Gawde (Priyanka Chopra).

2. Dil Dhadakne Do
