eight Bollywood Films To Watch On Infidelity And Additional Marital Affairs Earlier than Gehraiyaan

This Valentine’s week, love is in the air and so is the faint scent of infidelity and betrayal. As Shakun Batra’s Gehraiyaan gears up for its release on Friday, 11 February, the movie explores the theme of complicated relationships and infidelity.

With an exciting cast of Deepika Padukone, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday and Dhairya Karwa, fans can’t contain their excitement.

So, as a reply we bring a list of Bollywood movies to binge that have dealt with similar themes:

1. Silsila

The 1981 film Silsila directed by Yash Chopra starred Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan and Rekha in the lead roles. While the movie failed at the the box office, its songs (India’s favorite Holi song ‘Rang Barse’ was in the movie..need I say more?) and the film itself has become a timeless classic.

This was also the last time this trio ever worked together. In the film, Amitabh’s character ‘Amit’ loves Chandni (Rekha) but is forced to marry Shobha (Jaya Bachchan) after his brother’s untimely death.

Later, he runs into Chandni who is also married now but decides to rekindle their love. The film is packed with twists and turns and some great performances. Do watch the movie for Amitabh and Rekha’s electric chemistry!
