1. Munna Bhai MBBS (2003)
The first one in this list of must-watch Bollywood comedy movies we have is Munna Bhai MBBS. This is a movie starring Sanjay Dutt as the lead actor and Arshad Warsi as the lead supporting actor. This movie is regarded as one of the best comedy movies ever created.
Sanjay Dutt plays the role of a famous goon who initially came to Mumbai to become a doctor and fulfill his father's dream.
Although he's the infamous goon Munna Bhai for the whole of Mumbai but pretends to be Dr. Murli Prasad Sharma in front of his father, to make him proud.
However, shortly this act comes to an end and his father finds out and leaves him which drastically changes Munna's life, plus, the real fun begins as Munna joins medical college, to become a real doctor and make his father proud. The dean of the college is the very reason for Munna's secret which ends up sprouting a war between them which is very fun to watch.
I love Arshad's character Circuit the most, and the friendship and chemistry between Munna and Circuit take this movie to another level.
This movie has fun, emotions, and a little bit of romance as well, but most of all, the way it teaches the crucial life lessons of love and humanity funnily makes it one of the most mind-blowing Bollywood comedy movies of all time.
Even the songs in the movie have a great sense of humor and no matter how many times you watch it, this movie can never bore you. One of the most interesting fun facts about this great Bollywood comedy movie is the "Jadu ki Jhappi" and "Mamu", which became a trend and hit meme after this movie. Not only this movie achieved great success at the box office, but also the lead actor Sanjay Dutt gained a huge fandom for Munna Bhai and his heart-touching performance took his career to different heights.
Not to forget, the dialogues of this amazing Bollywood comedy movie are funny and mind-blowing which brings me to my favorite one i.e -
LIFE ME JAB TIME KAM REHTA HAI NA,
DOUBLE JEENE KA, DOUBLE...
So if you have still not watched it, do it now and if seen it already, watch it again and let us know which is your favorite dialogue, in the comments section.
2. Badhai Ho (2018)
The next one in this list of best Bollywood comedy movies comes Badhiya Ho which was released in the year 2018. The movie presents Ayushmann Khurrana and Neena Gupta as protagonists with Gajraj Rao, Surekha Sikri, Shardul Rana, and Sanya Malhotra in supporting roles.
This Bollywood comedy movie tells the story of Nakul, who is a 25-year-old guy who is in a relationship with his colleague, Renne, and is planning on getting married to her soon. His father is Jeetender Kaushik who works for railways and his mother is Priyamvada who is a housewife and is always being bullied by his grandmother. One day Nakul's mother gets very upset because of the taunts and her husband tries to calm her down and they get intimate. After 19 weeks she finds out she's pregnant. When Nakul finds out about the pregnancy of his mother, at the age when Nakul is about to get married, he's hurt and embarrassed and starts to avoid their parents, friends, and society. Things get complicated in Nakul's family and also Nakul's relationship ends.
The most important fact about this movie is Ayushman's acting which fills life and humor in the movie. All the supporting cast have also played their roles so well and made this movie such fun to watch.
No matter how awkward the plot gets but the movie never stops hilariously presenting it all.
And the fun fact about this movie is that Badhaai Ho is a movie based on a real-life story. The story of this movie was illuminated by the personal venture of the writer Akshay Gildial who got the notion of the movie after his aunt was born when his uncle was about 25 years of age.
This Bollywood comedy movie acquired favorable reviews and was a great success. With earnings of over ₹221.44 crores against a budget of ₹29 crores, it appeared as the ninth-highest-grossing Bollywood movie of 2018. Badhai Ho won four awards at the 64th Filmfare Awards, containing Best Actress (Critics) for Neena Gupta, Best Supporting Actress for Sikri, and Best Supporting Actor for Gajraj Rao. This movie also received two National Film Awards: Best Popular Film Providing Wholesome Entertainment, the first time that two movies presenting the same protagonist actor ( Ayushman Khurrana) have received both Best Film awards at the National Awards, and Best Supporting Actress for Sikri.
Badhai Ho is a must-watch Bollywood comedy movie and is available on Hotstar.
3. 3 Idiots (2009)
The next must-watch Bollywood comedy movie on this list is 3 Idiots which I do not think needs much introduction. This movie is a legend in the history of Bollywood movies not only for its grand success at the box office but also for the impression it leaves on the hearts of the audience.
3 Idiots is a movie told as a dual narrative, where Farhan narrates the flashbacks of ICE (Imperial College of Engineering, in Delhi) while he, Raju, and Chatur try to find their friend Rancho. Narrated through parallel dramas, one in the present and the other ten years in the past, the story follows the friendship of three students at an Indian engineering college and is a satire about the social pressures under an Indian education system.
Aamir Khan as Rancho (Ranchoddas Shamaldas Chanchad), Sharman Joshi as Raju Rastogi and R Madhavan as Farhan play the lead actors and are students pursuing engineering at ICE. The movie presents college life's fun as well as pressure in such a beautiful way that it'll win your heart.
The movie starts with Farhan, Raju, and Chatur traveling to find their collegemate Rancho where meanwhile Farhan remembers the college days of how they all met at ICE and how their lives changed.
Chatur was the topper of ICE who eventually lost the post after Rancho's arrival and then became the immovable topper of ICE. Whereas both Farhan and Raju were the last and second last and were somehow surviving college. After the three meets, they develop a great friendship and the fun begins. As the movie moves forward we find out the sad reality of the Indian education system where it was believed that either you top college or you're a failure for life, and medical and engineering careers were favored, neglecting the interests and skills of the students.
This movie will take you on a roller coaster of emotions and laughter and teaches so beautifully that Life is not just a race and one must work hard and fulfill their dreams instead of matching society's standards.
This amazing Bollywood comedy movie also teaches the value of friendship through the sweet and funny bond of the three musketeers. There's a lot to learn from this movie, and that too while laughing hard.
Let's better not get started with the praises and awards because there are numerous lined up.
Also, the dialogues in the movie are so beautiful and amazing that no matter how many times you watch it, it never gets old.
3 Idiots also presents good taste in music as the songs of this movie are a hit in themselves.
I strongly believe all of you have seen this movie at least once, and if not, time to do it now.
You can watch this marvelous Bollywood comedy movie anytime on Netflix, Amazon Prime, or YouTube.
4. Houseful (2010)
Moving on with the list of best Bollywood comedy movies we have Houseful, which was released in the year 2010 and was a box office superhit movie and received so much love from the audience worldwide.
This movie presents Akshay Kumar as Aarush, Deepika Padukone as Sandy, Ritesh Deshmukh as Bob, Lara Dutta as Hetal, and Arjun Rampal as Major Krishna Rao.
The movie presents Aarush who is an unlucky man (Panauti) and wrecks things wherever he goes.
Having a stroke of bad luck with his love, Aarush decides to go to London and stay with his best friend Bob for some time. But his bad luck doesn't leave him there as well and he ends up creating severe disturbance for Bob and Hetal. Hetal and Bob try to set him up with their hotel owner's only daughter Devika. They get married. But his great luck follows him to his honeymoon where he finds out his wife cheated on him and runs with another man.
But then he meets Sandy there and both fall in love with each other. When they both return and meet Bob and Hetal everything seems to be finally settled. But the real fun begins as both the girl's guardians announce to visit and everyone chooses to lie about each other to handle the situation. But as lies always make things worse, this adds to the flavor of the movie and makes it extremely funny. But do the lies ever come out, what happens if they did...
You need to watch this great Bollywood comedy movie to find out the answers to all these questions.
Along with loads of laughter and fun, this movie also presents great songs like, "I don't know what to do", "Oh Girl, you're mine", and my favorite "Aapka kya hoga"...
You can watch this amazing Bollywood comedy movie on Zee5, Amazon Prime, Jio Cinema, or YouTube.
5. Oh My God (2012)
The next one in this list of best comedy movies we have is Oh My God, which was released in the year 2012 and was a box office superhit movie.
This movie stars great Bollywood actors including Akshay Kumar, Paresh Raval, Om Puri, and Mithoon Chakraborty.
The storyline of this movie is said to be inspired by the Gujarati stage-play "Kanji Virudh Kanji" which itself was based on the Australian film -"The Man Who Sued God." The producers of Oh My God movie purchased remake rights from the Australian Producers.
The movie depicts the story of Kanji Lalji Mehta, who is an atheist. His antique shop gets destroyed in an earthquake which infuriates him and he decides to sue God and charges a case against him.
Lord Krishna comes to him as his renter and helps him with the case and exposes the corrupt people in the name of saints and priests, who were using people's faith, for their benefit and turning religion into business.
He is opposed severely by many religious godmen and people also treat him as a culprit who doesn't respect God and religions. But eventually, he earns the trust of people as his fight becomes against the religious businessmen and not against any particular religion or belief.
Around the climax of the movie he is severely hurt and is admitted to a hospital where he goes into a coma. When he wakes up after around a month, he learns that the man supporting him all this time is Lord Krishna himself, and his reason behind this was to enlighten mankind to not search for God in just status and temples and by following the Godmen. Instead, search for God in themselves and others.
Without hurting the emotions of religion and people's faith, this movie brought to light the dirty business made out of religions, culture, and people's devotion, in a funny way. The script of this Bollywood comedy movie is simply amazing. Without many heavy dialogues, this movie will still win your heart with its wit and simplicity.
Leave apart from the performance of the protagonists, even the supporting characters played so well on the screen that it brought life to the movie.
You can watch this movie anytime on Netflix, Jio Cinema, and YouTube.
This is a must-watch Bollywood comedy movie with a very deep meaning and if you still have not watched it, time to do it now.
6. Bhool Bhulaiya ( 2007)
The next hilarious Bollywood comedy movie on this list is Bhool Bhulaiya. This movie stars superhero Akshay Kumar, Vidhya Balan, Ameesha Patel, and Shiney Ahuja as protagonists and the legendary comedians Paresh Raval and Rajpal Yadav. Bhool Bhulaiya was released in 2007 and became a huge success in Bollywood Industry.
This movie is said to be based on a true story which is supposed to be horror, but the movie is far far from being a scary horror movie. Instead, it's a hilarious movie with great jokes, great dialogue, and mind-blowing expressions. Especially, one cannot miss Akshay's entry in the movie. His get-up, costume, expressions, dialogue, and mind-blowing presentation will make you forget that this movie was about some mystery or spirit. His presence has made this movie to another level.
And not just Akshay, when Rajpal Yadav is there in a movie then how can one not expect fun? His 'Chota Pandit' role and looks are a must-see sight. His dialogue - " Aree beti puspa, kaha ja rahi ho apne gadhe pr baith kar", and the genuine expression he has there will leave you laughing out loud. Paresh Raval as well leaves no chance to make things funny and one more mind-blowing character in this hilarious Bollywood comedy movie is Kamla Bua. I won't share her act or dialogues here, instead, you must just watch this movie to find out what happens with Kamla Bua and why is she counted as one of the main reasons for comedy in this movie.
It's said that the role of Avni, who's the lead female actress in this movie, was first offered to Katrina Kaif, then Aishwarya Rai Bachchan but both turned it down. Rani Mukherjee was also the choice for Avni's character but was not taken by her as well. Finally, Vidhya Balan was offered the movie, and Thank God it was turned down by others, coz Vidhya Balan was made for this role. It's one of the best movies of her career where she stole everyone's heart with her hard work in Maunjulika's role.
What makes this movie even more interesting is the fact that this Bollywood comedy movie is believed to be the actual pioneer of the modern horror-comedy in Hindi cinema. However, Bhool Bhulaiya does not present any supernatural elements at all.
This amazing Bollywood comedy movie can make even a crying person laugh.
But apart from that, this movie also draws curtains from a very severe issue of how people still have so many wrong beliefs and how their beliefs and fears start to present themselves if people just keep believing in superstitions. The psychological disorder presented in this movie and its cure shows us how powerful our mind is and how our thoughts and beliefs can make us weak or strong. It's up to us, what we want to believe and what not.
This amazing Bollywood comedy movie is so gripping and involving that you wouldn't want to take your eyes off it for one second.
Also, the music and the songs of this movie, like -"Mere Dholna Sun" and the title track "Teri Aankhen Bhool Bhulaiya" were also superhit and became enormously popular at that time.
You can watch Bhool Bhulaiya any time on Disney+Hotstar or YouTube.

7. Lage Raho Munna Bhai (2006)
The next one on this list of must-watch Bollywood comedy movies is Lage Raho Munna Bhai which was released in 2006, i.e three years after the great success of Munna Bhai MBBS. The interesting fact about this movie is that no other characters are repeated from the previous movie except for the mind-blowing duo of Munna Bhai and Circuit.
Again in this Bollywood comedy movie, Munna Bhai is an infamous goon of Mumbai and Circuit is his right hand. Munna falls in love with a Radio Jockey named Janvi. He participates in a radio quiz to talk to her and to meet her. Situations end up making Janvi believe that Munna is a history professor who has deep knowledge about Mahatma Gandhi. To continue seeing her he needs to maintain the illusion and be the Gandhi-Vadi professor. In his quest, he suddenly starts seeing the spirit of Mahatma Gandhi. The spirit of Gandhi Ji promises to appear and help Munna whenever he will remember Bapu with a true heart. But in return, he asks Munna to follow the path of Truth and guides him to confess the truth to Janvi despite the repercussions.
Munna finds it a bit difficult to follow Bapu's path as he is a goon. The chemistry shown between Bapu's spirit and Munna is amazing as well as hilarious. The situations occurring in the movie and how Munna handles them make it so fun to watch.
This movie is a classic example of delivering such a beautiful message of truth and humanity in such a humourous way that it wins all hearts.
You can watch this amazing Bollywood comedy movie on Netflix, Amazon Prime Videos, and also on YouTube.

This Bollywood comedy movie is a satire on the Indian education system which is tilting towards western culture and prioritizing English medium schools over any other. This movie has also presented the education system becoming a business resulting in the plight of middle-class people, forgetting the lower ones.
It's said that the idea for Hindi Medium was generated by Chaudhary and his co-writer Zeenat Lakhani during the development of his other movie - Shaadi Ke Side Effects (2014).
The story of this amazing Bollywood comedy movie presents Raj Batra who's a simple businessman. His wife Meeta Batra is a prestigious woman and doesn't want to die, middle class. She deems a classy rich life for her family and especially for her daughter Pia. They wish to get Pia into a well-known English Medium School but it's very difficult to get her a seat there, because of the corruption and politics of the educational business. Meeta persuades Raj to change their standard of living for a better future for their child. They leave Chandni chowk and move to a wealthy apartment in a wealthy surrounding. They try every means possible to get Pia admitted to the English Medium School.
Their journey and efforts to change will make you laugh like idiots. Their chemistry is so funny and the dialogue so mind-blowing. Especially with such a natural actor Irfan Khan, this movie becomes a pleasure to watch.
By the end of the movie, we see a change in the thoughts of the protagonists. They realize what wrongs they have done to become so-called classy. They finally realize that humanity and kindness are above all show-offs and money and decide to change back to the normal happy life they had earlier.
The songs of this movie are another entertainment hit. Children's and party lovers' all-time favorites' Oh ho ho ho', to Guru Randhawa's 'Suit Suit' became a great hit at that time and are still counted as Bollywood's best songs.

The plot of this Bollywood comedy movie is not so simple to define. There is no simple story but different incidents and different characters arriving, creating hassle, making all laugh, then again some other incidents and complications.
All the drama in this movie results in great comedy which is why this movie became a blockbuster hit at its time.
As I already mentioned that there is nothing like single or dual protagonist characters in this movie as there are several prominent roles in this movie and all deliver classic performances, making it hard to say someone is best and someone a little less.
However, summarising the young character's plot, there's Anjali who's living with a fake identity as Nandu's wife, to get the room at less price. And she bumps into Jeetu who mistakes her for the rich heiress of the Tiwari Villa and tries to impress her and win her heart. As Anjali needed a job and sees the perfect opportunity when Jeetu tells about the vacancy in his store, she pretends to be Tiwari's daughter and doesn't end Jeetus's confusion.

And Nandu's landlord's wife gets interested in him and plans to run away with him, again making things complicated and extremely funny.
So what happens at the end, will Anjali's truth be out??
Of course Yes. Lies have to be caught someday. However, the question remains what happens after her secret is out ... What happens when Jeetu finds out, and what about Nandu... The climax holds all these answers and till the end of the movie, it's very interesting so you should watch this movie.

Then they plan about selling the drugs and giving the money received to the goon they have debt from.
But fate again plays and the owner of the drugs ends up being set up for buying it, and he finds out. As the movie moves towards the climax, great fun awaits. Till the last scene of this movie you won't be able to control your laughter. Everything becomes so messed up, in the end resulting in hilarious chaos.
Although this movie was released a decade, still is one of the best comedy movies to date, and the dialogues and expressions from this movie are still among the topmost memes and jokes. No matter how many times you watch it, the jokes are still so funny and you won't be able to hold your laughter.

At the start of the movie, these four are seen to be using Laxman's dorm room for their mischievous plans. However, they end up getting kicked out of theirs. They get in trouble with some famous gangsters and run away from the town. While running away they find a beautiful house in the forest. All four try to sneak into the house. They learn that the house belongs to an elderly couple who are blind. They also get to know that the couple is waiting for their grandson Sameer, who is to return from foreign. Gopal pretends to be Sameer and rest three follow in like ghosts. Situations end up making Laxman's body and Gopal's voice as Sameer's personality for the blind couple and every time the couple is around everything becomes so hilarious. The four friends also find out that there is a hidden treasure in the house which belongs to the couple. They start planning to find out the treasure and run away with it. Meanwhile, we see the entry of a beautiful girl into their lives which adds to their tasks that who among them will win her heart. Nirali was the couple's neighbor who became the living dream of all four.
Also, one of the most interesting facts about this movie is the character sketch of the four friends which is presented so witfully. Gopal is the muscleman of the group while Madhav is the mastermind. Lucky is the Mr. Right of the group but cannot speak properly and Laxman was a student who has these three gems as his friends to create chaos around and get him involved.
They find out that some goons are also behind the blind couple's treasure and are trying to steal it.
Now, who gets the treasure box and what treasure they find out is a very interesting part and I won't disclose it here. The storyline of this Bollywood comedy movie is amazing and grips your attention till the end. And the dialogues and acting and expressions presented in this movie are what make it one of the best comedy movies made by Bollywood.
