Bittersweet is the word that can perfectly describe the ordinary brother-sister relationship – which is a package of love, friendship, arguments and cat-and-mouse fights. Raksha Bandhan is not a festival of the sister tying a thread around her brother’s wrist and the brother promising to take care of his sister – it is a celebration of one of the sweetest relationships in life. If the both of you are hardcore Bollywood lovers, these are some of the most heartwarming brother-sister movies you should definitely check out –

‘Brothers’ could be anyone – your sibling, cousin or even a friend. The role of Omkar won particular praise by the critics for Aparshakti Khurrana’s realistic portrayal of the occasional-teasing but ever-supportive cousin (the younger role was played by Ritwik Sahore). Endearing and protective, Omkar is the kind of brother we would all like to have.

A drama inspired by true events, “Sarbjit” shows you the extents that a sister would go for her brother. Played by Aishwarya Rai, Dalbir is determined to get her brother Sarabjit (Randeep Hooda) released from Pakistan and takes the help of the media to fight her case. Even after Sarabjit’s death, she does not give up hope and swears to prove her brother as innocent – playing the picture of a sister who can cross oceans for her brother.

No matter how far we have fallen out with the rest of the family, this slice-of-life comedy-drama shows that your siblings will be your strongest pillar. Ayesha and Kabir share a closeness like no other, where they support each other in all their decisions, were great counselors and shared their deepest secrets with each other. On a lighter note, they enjoyed teasing and taunting them at every chance as well!

Brother-Sister Love On A Roller-Coaster Ride In “Kai Po Che!” (2013)

Though a buddy movie between Govind, Omkar and Ishaan, one cannot miss out on the love between Ishaan and Vidya. Ishaan (Sushant Singh Rajput) does not allow a relationship between Govind and his sister, does mess up the situation – but it is all because he is extremely protective of Vidya and wants only the best for her. Though he dies at the end of the movie, he lives on in Govind and Vidya’s son who has been named Ishaan after him.

Stuck with each other for life, the brother-sister relationship is not something that can be simply defined with a rakhi. Invite your brother/sister and look forward to having a great time with him/her. For once gone, these days won’t come back.
