Hopefully this will start you off, I started watching Hindi films last year and now I have seen @ 140 films. Some of them may be available on You Tube, try that first.

I think you may like Dil Chahta Hai and Jhankaar Beats.

I like this film too and I would highly recommend checking out "Hum Tum" with Rani Mukerjee. I'm new to Bollywood films too and this movie is my favorite by far. Here are some over-hyped films I would avoid though;

Kuch Naa Kaho- Probably the worst film I've seen in a long time. Filled with over-acting and ridiculous situations.

Salaam Namaste- Tries too hard to break away form Bollywood cliches by having the leads shack up and get pregnant. The issues of abortion and the definition of life are in stark contrast to the overall silly mood of the film. Not to mention it features the most absurd musical sequence ever as the 8 month pregnant lead is dancing and singing!

No Entry- Nonsensical movie about 3 guys in relationships trying to keep their women happy while perusing a sleazy bombshell. The musical numbers are easily forgettable, just like the story.

Bride and Prejudice- Boring, predictable, and downright stupid at times. I'd only recommend it to those who really have an aversion to any sentient thoughts while watching films. And I am an Indian who grew up in America, so this film should probably have appealed to my demographic the most.

Man I totally understand what kind of bollywood you re so desperate to see, So just go see Kal ho na ho, If you haven't..... Watch jaane tu ya jaane na too.... its awesome too.........
