This Valentine’s Day, Bollywood in Mumbai reminded us that love is not limited to just romance. Popular films like Piku, Queen, Dear Zindagi, and Mimi beautifully highlight different dimensions of love beyond the usual romantic tales. These movies focus on themes such as self-love, family bonds, motherhood, freedom, and even patriotism.
Take Piku, for instance, a heartfelt story that explores the deep father-daughter relationship, emphasizing the importance of family love and care. Queen showcases self-love and empowerment, as the protagonist embarks on a solo journey of self-discovery, proving that love for oneself is equally important.
Dear Zindagi introduces us to the concept of mental health and the importance of loving oneself to face life’s challenges. Meanwhile, Mimi brings forward the emotional and selfless aspects of motherhood, portraying a mother’s love that transcends biological ties.
These films have successfully moved audiences by portraying love in its multiple hues, helping us understand that love can mean many things:
- Nurturing relationships
- Personal freedom
- Loving one’s country
On this Valentine’s Day, instead of just romantic tales, Bollywood has given us stories that celebrate love in all its forms, making us appreciate the many ways we connect and care for each other.
