Let's admit it, great dialogues play a vital role in making great movies. Since dialogues which the actors deliver put forth their emotions and intentions and come across as a medium via which they give purpose to every scene in the film, they ought to be powerful, hard-hitting and thought provoking. While 'Mere pass maa hai', 'Kitney aadmi they', 'Khamosh' continue to be referred to as the most memorable lines from Bollywood, there are many from the recent films that will turn into iconic dialogues and have the potential to remain with movie buffs for decades.
'Usne teri khuddari ko lalkaara hai, yaar. Kya kar raha hai? Mard ban. Be a man!' (Dil Chahta Hai!)
This retort is memorable because of the impact it leaves on Saif Ali Khan making it the most hilarious scenes in the film. The impulsive wickedness with which Aamir provokes Saif to handle his overbearing beau is exceptional.
Ek baar jo maine commitment kar di for toh main apne aap ki bhi nahi sunta (Wanted): There is no denying the fact that Salman Khan has a way with words. So when he uttered this, it had to become the movie's most quotable quote.
Cheedi Singh hum tum mein itne ched karenge ki canfuge ho jaoge ke sans kahan se lein aur p**** kahan se (Dabangg): So, there is this criminal turned politician who is finding an equal match in a cop. Salman outshone everyone in this scene.
Mujhe Tumse Pyaar Ho Jayega! Phir Se! (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani)
Even though Deepika couldn't stop sobbing while declaring her love for Ranbir Kapoor, she made it a popular dialogue.
Don't underestimate the power of a common man (Chennai Express).
Yes, if Shah Rukh Khan says it in 'Chennai Express', it ought to be an instant hit.
Tumhara pyaar na ho gaya..UPSC ka exam ho gaya. 10 saal se paas hi nai ho raha (Raanjhanaa)"
How else would one summarise one's failed attempt at finding true love? Agreed, emerging victorious in the love games isn't easy, but taking too long to clear it does come across as UPSC exam.
Jigar pe mat ja ... trigger daba dungi (Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela)
Those who understood the pun on the word 'Trigger' found it hilarious and made it popular.
"Filmein sirf teen cheezon ki wajah se chalti hain- entertainment, entertainment, entertainment. Aur main entertainment hoon!" (The Dirty Picture)
Vidya Balan became a superstar with this dialogue. Having kicked off her career with popular TV series 'Hum Paanch', Vidya has proved her mettle by taking up challenging roles in Bollywood. Whether it was 'Parineeta', 'Kahaani' or 'the Dirty Picture', the actress proved she is all about entertainment.
Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost (Om Shanti Om)
While Shah Rukh Khan has a series of oh-so-popular dialogues, this one will also remain etched in the minds of his fans forever.
Paifa kamane ke do rafte hain : ek fortcut aur dufra chota fortcut (Kaminey)
Vishal Bhardwaj's 'Kaminey' was popular for 2 reasons- Shahid Kapoor's chiseled bod and his accent. For those who came in late, the actor impressed many with the ease with which he replaced 's' with 'f'. That explains why this dialogue went on to be a hit.
