The early 2000s were a golden era for Bollywood, filled with films that left a lasting impact on audiences. It was a time when comedy, action, drama, and romance blended seamlessly, creating iconic movies that we still cherish today. Whether it was the quirky humor of a Priyadarshan film, the adrenaline-pumping action sequences of an Akshay Kumar starrer, or the larger-than-life sets, the early 2000s had it all. DesiPlay TV, a leading FAST channel, is bringing that nostalgic magic back with a curated selection of films from this iconic period, allowing audiences to watch Hindi movies online for free. Let’s take a trip down memory lane and revisit some of the standout movies from that era, including De Dana Dan, Blue, Phir Hera Pheri, and Welcome.
If there’s one thing that defined the early 2000s, it was Bollywood’s unique brand of comedy, and no one did it better than Priyadarshan. De Dana Dan (2009) is a perfect example of the director’s expertise in creating laugh riots out of chaotic situations. The film stars Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal— a trio that had already established their chemistry in earlier hits.
Released in 2009, Blue was a film that pushed the boundaries of Bollywood filmmaking with its underwater sequences and high-octane action. Starring Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, and Lara Dutta, Blue was a visual treat, offering audiences something they had never seen before in Indian cinema. The film’s plot revolves around a treasure hunt in the deep blue seas, filled with danger, betrayal, and a race against time.
Sequels often come with immense pressure to live up to the original, but Phir Hera Pheri (2006) not only met expectations but exceeded them. Following the immense success of Hera Pheri (2000), this sequel brought back the beloved trio of Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal in roles that had become iconic in Bollywood’s comedic landscape.
Released in 2007, Welcome is a film that redefined the concept of a family entertainer in Bollywood. Directed by Anees Bazmee, the film brought together an ensemble cast of Akshay Kumar, Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor, and Katrina Kaif, each delivering performances that are memorable even today.
