The festival of Diwali is like the magic ray that illuminates everything it touches and the celluloid is no exception. For years, Bollywood films and storytellers have captured the essence of one of the biggest festivals of India with many of them being immortalised on screens forever. As the world gets drenched in the colours and shimmer of Diwali, let`s take a look at some of the most iconic sequences in Bollywood movies.
Chachi 420: Kamal Haasan`s 1997 classic `Chachi 420`, which was inspired from `Mrs Doubtfire` has one Diwali moment that served as a major driving force for the plot. The titular character of Chachi scores the job as a governess for his own daughter (played by a young Fatima Sana Shaikh) by rescuing her when an errant firecracker injures her.
Vaastav: Remember, "pacchass tola hai pacchass tola"? Yeah it`s from the Sanjay Dutt-starrer `Vaastav` in which he plays a gangster. The scene shows Sanjay Dutt`s character Raghu coming out of his hide-out on the occasion of Diwali to meet his family and brings them gifts. In the scene with Reema Lagu, Raghu explains the value of his gold chain to his mother as he mouths the dialogue: "Ye dekh pacchass tola!"
