Bollywood has become more well-liked for its humorous and original takes on famous cinema genres, and comedy is no exception. Every year, the Hindi-language film business releases a hefty number of commercial comedies, which Indian audiences anxiously anticipate.

1. Monica, O My Darling (2022)

One of the most enduring Bollywood comedies in recent memory is Monica, O My Darling, which was only recently released. The film, which stars Rajkummar Rao, Huma Qureshi, and Radhika Apte in the key roles, is a masterfully crafted crime thriller with black comedic flourishes. In the film, Rajkummar Rao plays a self-made IT genius who is elevated to the board of directors at his place of employment. He finds his job challenged when a coworker with whom he has been having an affair begins extorting him. He is engaged to the CEO's daughter.

2. 3 Idiots (2009)

3 Idiots is a legendary and hugely influential movie about the difficulties of college life in India's best engineering colleges. Rajkumar Hirani co-wrote and directed the film, which features Sharman Joshi, R. Madhavan, and Aamir Khan in the key roles. Three Idiots is a social drama with an overt message in Hirani's signature manner, and it amuses viewers along the way with boldly drawn highs and lows. Munna Bhai M.B.B.S focuses primarily on benign melodrama, whereas 3 Idiots alternates between riotous humour and tragic sorrow.

3. Malamaal Weekly (2006)

A darkly humorous treasure hunt called Malamaal Weekly is set in the countryside of India. Priyadarshan, who also directed Hera Pheri and Bhagam Bhag, is the film's director. The plot of the film begins when Lilaram, played by Paresh Rawal, finds the most recent lottery winner dead in his home. When he is discovered by another villager in what appears to be a murder, what started out as a straightforward scheme to seize control of the winning ticket becomes a tricky game of secrets. Malamaal Weekly develops over the course of several glitches in a straightforward plan, making for an incredibly entertaining rollercoaster journey.

4. Delhi Belly (2011)

Every now and again, Bollywood filmmakers also create noteworthy black comedy, with Delhi Belly being the most well-known. The film stars Imran Khan, Vir Das, and Kunaal Roy Kapur. It chronicles the complicated interactions between the three roommates and begins when one of them mistakenly mixes up two deliveries: a shipment of priceless diamonds and a faeces sample for a nearby doctor. The entire film is as entertaining as the premise would imply, and it is well worth seeing.

5. Bhagam Bhag (2006)

Another outstanding Bollywood comedy in the wake of Hera Pheri is Bhagam Bhag. Contrary to some of its predecessors, the film focuses more heavily on the concepts of double-dealing and false identities and builds its humour on a stronger and more engaging storyline. The movie also incorporates aspects of a mystery thriller, which increases its intrigue. A failing theatre company that has been hired to perform 30 shows across the UK is the subject of Bhagam Bhag, which chronicles their hectic activity. They are forced to quickly find a new lead after their main actress abruptly leaves the group. But they discover that they are mysteriously entangled with dangerous criminals and more.

6. Dhamaal (2007)

Dhamaal is a great example of the very specific subgenre of comedic films made popular by Hera Pheri. This form of humour, which is easily recognised by its exaggerated characters, cross-cutting stakes, and chaotic happenings, was a dominant film genre in Bollywood in the 2000s, with numerous similarly successful hits. Dhamaal distinguishes out from the rest of them due to the sheer volume of memorable scenes and memes it gave the movie world. The plot of the film is on a group of clueless friends who travel to Goa in search of a treasure whose location was cryptically told to them by a dying man. With stars like Sanjay Dutt, Ritesh Deshmukh, Arshad Warshi, and Jaaved Jaaferi in the roster.

7. Chup Chup Ke (2006)

A classic Shahid Kapoor romance hero film, Chup Chup Ke is a beloved romantic comedy. He plays a bankrupt businessman in the film who decides to end his life to get away from his creditors. He ultimately settles in with the enormous family of a Gujarati businessman after failing in his attempt and assuming the identity of a mute person. Along the way, he develops feelings for the businessman's mute daughter, played by Kareena Kapoor. The plot is complex, intensely engaging, and loaded with comedy and emotion. Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav, two humorous performers, give outstanding performances in the film and play some of their most crucial roles.

8. Munna Bhai M.B.B.S (2003)

Munna Bhai M.B.B.S, Rajkumar Hirani's directorial debut, is one of the most significant films in the social drama subgenre of Bollywood and features one of the most well-known performances in its canon. Murliprasad, a local Mumbai mobster better known by his street moniker Munna Bhai, is played by Sanjay Dutt in the film. He is a generally likeable individual who has deceived his parents into thinking he is a doctor, despite his vocation. However, when his parents eventually learn the truth, he embarks on a mission to become a real medical expert and, along the way, has a profound impact on many people's lives with his belief in the healing power of love and friendship.

9. Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007)

Bhool Bhulaiyaa, a comedy-thriller starring Akshay Kumar, is remembered fondly for a number of reasons, including its engaging psychological twist, well-written story based on popular Indian superstitions, and colourful cast of characters who combine realism with eccentricity. The haunted palace that a previous aristocratic family owns is the focus of the film, as well as the consequences it has on its residents. The family's heir hires Kumar to play an eccentric psychotherapist who is called in to aid with these problems. The household becomes quite chaotic as a result of his peculiar ways, yet he is able to take advantage of the upheaval for his own gain.

10. Hera Pheri (2000)

Hera Pheri, a film that stands out among the others, is an essential entry in any history of Bollywood comedies. The story of the film was based on the Malayalam film Ramji Rao Speaking, but Hera Pheri, the story's Hindi version, expanded its audience. The three principal actors, Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty, and Paresh Rawal, gave outstanding performances that cemented the film's status as an instant classic. In the film, an eclectic and unlikely trio form a relationship over their common financial difficulties and become caught in a perilous web of crime and deceit as a result of a misdialed phone call.
