5 Motivational Movies During Lockdown



Movies have always entertained and conveyed a message to people through their content. As the lockdown continues, here are some of the movies which can help you in staying positive and motivated during the lockdown. 

1. Chef 
Chef is available on Amazon Prime and stars Jon Favreau. The movie is all about starting afresh and reigniting old passion both personally and professionally. The movie starts with Favreau having a fight at the restaurant he works which ultimately leads to quitting his job ad starting a food truck in Miami. 

This helps him in reuniting with his ex-wife and child. The movie is directed by Favreau and a Bollywood movie of the same name was released which could not gain as much popularity as the former gained. 

2. Khoobsurat 

Khoobsurat is a classic movie directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee available on Netflix. The movie is all about order and rules which need to be followed in a household. When a young girl played by Rekha comes in the picture and revolts against it, the story takes a new turn. 
The movie could have been serious at this time but the humor is retained in the movie throughout. 

3. Tu Hai Mera Sunday

The movie is available on Netflix and is the story of five friends. The movie has many feel-good moments in it. The story is from the point of view of five different Indians which is marked with humor, tenderness and warmth. It also reminds what can happen when we open up by leaving aside the criticism. 

4. Angoor 

Angoor available on Amazon Prime is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors. The movie is directed by famous Indian lyricist Gulzaar and it is a delightful comedy. It is filled with warmth and innocence and has a very nutty conclusion.

5. Harishchandrachi Factory 

The movie is all about backstage when Dadasaheb Phalke created the first Indian film Raja Harishchandra. It has a lot of gentle humor and is filled with perseverance and curiosity. The movie is an example of Marathi New Wave and was released in 2009. The movie is streaming on Netflix.

Online classes are becoming the biggest failures in India. Some of the reasons for the failure of online classes are bad internet connectivity. Despite knowing that all the work around the world is being done online, the cellular networks are not increasing their network speed due to which the class gets hampered.  One of the other reasons can be that students do not have a habit to take classes online and that also on laptops and computers.
