What are the most popular Bollywood films based on real life stories?

Airlift is a very popular one. It is based on the true story of the largest civilian evacuation by a single country. It tells the story of how Indians were evacuated from Kuwait during the Gulf War. The film has great action and emotional scenes.

One such film is 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag'. It is based on the life of Milkha Singh, an Indian athlete. The movie beautifully portrays his journey from a difficult past to becoming a renowned runner.

Definitely '3 Idiots'. It's a blockbuster and the story from the novel 'Five Point Someone' was adapted in a very engaging way. It also has a great message about education and following one's passion.

Definitely 'The Conjuring' series. It has gained a huge following due to its terrifying and well - told stories based on the Warrens' case files. The special effects and the acting make it very engaging.

Well, 'The Blind Side' is a great one. It's based on the true story of Leigh Anne Tuohy and Michael Oher. Oher was a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All - American football player with the help of the Tuohy family. Then there's 'Hidden Figures'. This movie is about the real - life African - American female mathematicians who played crucial roles in NASA during the space race. '127 Hours' is also a film based on a real event where a hiker had to amputate his own arm to survive.

The story of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan is very inspiring. They have been together for a long time. They have supported each other through different phases of their careers. Amitabh's dominance in Bollywood was always complemented by Jaya's grace and talent. Their relationship has withstood the test of time, and they are an example of a strong and loving couple in the Bollywood fraternity.

Often, Bollywood films based on novels have the opportunity to explore deeper themes. Take 'PK' for instance. It was able to dig into the themes of religious intolerance and blind faith because it was based on a concept that had been thought - out in a more elaborate way in a novel - like form. This allows the filmmakers to create a more thought - provoking and engaging film compared to an original screenplay that might not have had the same level of in - depth exploration.

I'm not certain which are the most popular ones precisely. However, if there were any adaptations that made it to international film festivals, they might gain more popularity. Films like that could introduce Higuchi's stories to a wider audience outside of Japan.

Top Gun: Maverick' was extremely popular. Fans of the original 'Top Gun' were eager to see the new movie. It managed to capture the spirit of the first one while also updating it for a modern audience. The flight scenes were spectacular and based on real - life flight maneuvers, which added to its appeal for those interested in military aviation.

I think 'The Godfather' is quite popular. Although it's based on a novel which may have had some magazine short story origins. It's a classic crime drama that has had a huge impact on cinema. Another popular one is 'Forrest Gump'. The story of Forrest's life journey, which was based on a short story, has touched the hearts of many around the world.
