When it comes to love, care and wisdom, there is no match for our grandparents. The bond between grandparents and their grandchildren is a special and unique relationship. It is a connection that often plays a pivotal role in shaping a child’s identity and values. Grandparents have witnessed the passage of time, faced challenges, and learned important life lessons. This Grandparents Day Special OTT watchlist is our little ode to them.
This knowledge is invaluable for their grandchildren, as it provides them with a broader perspective on life and can guide them through their own trials and tribulations. This Sunday, on 10th September, 2023, the world celebrated these torchbearers of culture and heritage, in the form of Grandparents Day. Spending time with your grandparents is truly blissful. And what better way to do that than to watch some good relatable cinema with them?
Like adolescence or middle age, growing old is a part of life that comes with its own set of adventures. Fortunately, there exist a few shows and films that remind us of the same while casting old age in a fresh light. Check out this list of movies streaming on OTT that we curated for you to binge on with your beloved grandparents:
The movie takes you on a journey, literally, when Piku Banerjee (Deepika Padukone) and her 70-year-old widowed father, Bhashkor (Amitabh Bachchan) travel from Delhi to Kolkata, driven by Rana (Irrfan Khan). The core of the story is Piku dealing with her father’s bowel issues. For those taking care of their elderly parents, this film hits where it hurts. And for the rest, it’s a joyride marked by a wooden chair cum toilet seat tied to the top of a car. You can watch Piku on Sony Liv.
Age is just a number and this comedy-drama film proves that. 102 Not Out showcases legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan playing a 102-year-old who wishes to break the “oldest man alive” record. Late Bollywood legend Rishi Kapoor played his sad and grumpy 75-year-old son. Their chemistry and repartee makes for an entertaining experience. The movie gives the message that living in the moment and making the most of every day of your life is all that matters. You can watch 102 Not Out on Amazon Prime Video.
This one is a heartwarming tale of friendship and loss. Three friends (portrayed by Boman Irani, Amitabh Bachchan and Anupam Kher along with Neena Gupta, Sarika and Parineeti Chopra) take a trek to the Everest Base Camp. A trek undertaken to fulfill their friend’s last wish turns out to be a personal, emotional and spiritual journey as they battle their physical limitations and discover the true meaning of freedom. You can watch Uunchai on Zee 5.
When 70-year-old widower Ben Whittaker (Robert de Niro) decides to become a senior intern at a fashion website, he forms an unlikely friendship with the website’s workaholic CEO, Jules Ostin (Anne Hathaway). The wholesome movie showcases the different viewpoints of multi-generations working in the same place. It also gives the message that when it comes to learning something new, age is no bar. Ypu can watch The Intern on Jio Cinema.
Encompassing three generations, Tribhanga is an out-and-out family story. Nayantara (Tanvi Azmi) is an acclaimed writer while her daughter Anuradha (Kajol) is an actor-dancer and a single mother. Her daughter Masha (Mithila Palkar) is married, pregnant and wants a normal life. The three couldn’t be more different if they tried, but a tragedy brings the dysfunctional family together to confront their situation. You can watch Tribhanga on Netflix.
A short 5-episode series on YouTube, this story depicts the sweet bond between a grandfather (Sarat Saxena) and his grandson (Mayur More). 70-year-old ‘Dadu’ helps his beloved grandson ‘Giri‘ to escape troubles. They take on different kinds of explorations together making it a very wholesome and entertaining watch.
Some other titles you could watch are Kapoor and Sons, Mukti Bhawan, TVF’s Yeh Meri Family, Do Dooni Chaar, Disney/Pixar’s Up, Kodachrome this week with your grandparents. Happy viewing!
