20 Movies You Should Definitely Watch With Your College Buddies To Get The Feels

Honestly, there was nothing like college life. We cribbed, we cried and yet we loved each and every single minute of it. Right from the break ups, to the fights with roommates, to the bunking of classes to go to the canteen or the last minute xerox of all the notes – college life was not just precious but incomparable.

And only when you’re not in college do you realize the importance of each second spent there, and how important were the friendships that were formed there. So the next time your friends are in town, go out, have fun, get drunk and come back home to watch these movies and terribly, terribly miss the best days of your life.

 

1. 3 Idiots

CM-1

Probably one of the most popular and loved college movie of Indian cinema, based on Chetan Bhagat’s 5 Point Someone, this movie had all the elements of a typical college movie, with heartbreaking and joyous moments combined.

 

2. Rang De Basanti

CM-2

The baap of all college movies, this one made me cry not because they die at the end, but because even till the end, they never let their friendship die down.

 

3. Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na

CM-3

This cute, almost rom-com had me in splits with it’s fresh jokes on Pappu and the ups and down of college friendships between a guy and a girl.

 

4. Munna Bhai MBBS

CM-4

This laugh riot won hearts, not just for its jokes, punchlines and Circuit’s stupidities, but also because it showed how ‘difficult’ Medical college actually is.

 

5. 2 States

CM-5

The perfect college romance movie, again based on a Chetan Bhagat novel, this one shows the struggles of a college couple who got their happily ever after at the end. Thinking of your college-sweetheart-turned husband?

 

6. Main Hoon Na

CM-6

The ultimate crush-on-teacher movie, this SRK starrer, awakened the teenager in you who had a crush on your lecturer in college, and also taught you why it would have been super inappropriate to express your feelings to them.

 

7. American Pie

CM-7

This coming-of-age movie was the ultimate college fantasy for students in India and abroad alike. This movie set standards for college, that no college will ever be close to reaching. I mean who doesn’t want unlimited drinks, fun, men and women in college?

 

8. Dil Dosti Etc

CM-8

A compelling story that will remind you of college elections, different characters you come across and how life changes for us after college!

 

9. Ishq Vishk

CM-9

With it’s typical love triangle, this movie made us relive each and every triangle of our own and how we managed to escape it or live with it.

 

10. Mujhse Fraandship Karoge

CM-10

This confusion of a movie is the perfect scenario to describe what social media does to relationships and how it affects them in its own cute way.

 

11. Happy Days

CM-11

Although it counts as neither Bollywood, not Hollywood, this movie deserves a special mention in the list. No other movie has presented engineering college and its real deals so perfectly and so accurately as this movie did.

 

12. Accepted (The original FALTU)

CM-12

For those of you who loved FALTU, you should watch the real deal. This hilarious movie has a college that’s named S.H.I.T. Not kidding!

 

13. Pitch Perfect

CM-13

I’m no one to judge, but I have a feeling all the students of Arts would love it. Not because it has music and acapella (I’m not stereotyping). But we engineering students are too lazy to have competitions and face-offs like the one shown in this movie.

 

14. Legally Blonde

CM-14

The perfect revenge movie, this one is set in Harvard, has a blonde, with a chihuahua and law school. Enough drama for a day, I’d say.

 

15. Mohabattein

CM-15

SRK fans cried tears of joy after seeing SRK in a professor’s role. So what if he was the music teacher? He’s the hopeless romantic. Of course, he had to be the music teacher.

 

16. Animal House

CM-16

Before American Pie and Van Wilder became cool, Animal House was the shizz. Partying, fooling around, wildness and everything a college student could dream of.

 

17. Rudy

CM-17

Based on the real life of football player Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger, the movie is all the motivation you need to get through college and make it big in life.

 

18. Sadda Adda

Cm-18

6 friends, 1 apartment. Ring a bell? That’s all of us during college, and this movie is a hilarious reminder of the struggles of hostel/apartment life.

 

19. St. Elmo’s Fire

CM-19

The perfect coming-of-age movie, this one shows the lives of a group of friends who have just graduated from college and are ready to enter the adult life. Or are they?

 

20. The Perks of Being A Wallflower

CM-20

Although this is not a college movie and is a movie about school children, I mentioned this in the list as it shows the perfect feels that we all had to deal with while leaving school and before we realized what a wonderful, wonderful place college actually was.

These will give you all the feels. Keep your tissues handy.
