#3 Nanna (2011)
This movie is an emotional roller coaster, so do not start watching it without a box of tissues next to you. Vikram shines as an artist in this father-daughter sentimental drama. Sara Arjun’s performance as the little girl deserves a standing ovation. The climax is a tear-jerker and Vikram fully capitalizes on it with his performance as a mentally challenged person. This is a great watch on any given day.

A.R Rahman yet again steals our hearts with his captivating music and delivers some chartbusters. This is a must-watch movie if you haven’t tried it.
