1.Dilip Kumar's Ram Aur Shyam
In 1967, Dilip Kumar started the double role comedy with the iconic Ram Aur Shyam, which inspired generations of filmmakers.
2.Hema Malini's Seeta Aur Geeta
Five years after Dilip Kumar's double role laugh riot, Hema Malini starred in its remake, giving fa resh spin to the concept with Seeta Aur Geeta. This film was among the top grossers of 1972.
3.Sanjeev Kumar's Angoor
10 years after Seeta Aur Geeta, Sanjeev Kumar starred in Angoor. In this film, two characters meet their identical twins, which leads to hilarious chaos of mistaken identity. This classic is a must-watch.
4.Sridevi's ChaalBaaz
In 1989, Sridevi led the second remake of Ram Aur Shyam, ChaalBaaz, and this was a bigger blockbuster than Seeta Aur Geeta. With ChaalBaaz, Sridevi impressed the nationwide audience with her comic timing, cementing her position further as a pan-India star (even when the term wasn't invented).
5.Anil Kapoor's Kishen Kanhaiya
In 1990, Anil Kapoor tried to fit into the shoes of Dilip Kumar and came up with his interpretation of identical twins. Kishen Kanhaiya was a commercially successful film, but it still couldn't match-up with the success of ChaalBaaz or Seeta Aur Geeta.
6.Salman Khan's Judwaa
In 1997, Salman Khan bounced back after a slump with the blockbuster Judwaa. The film is based on identical twins and mistaken identity. Salman's comic timing was loved by the critics and audience alike.
7.Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda's Bade Miyan Chote Miyan
In 1998, Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda gave a desi double role tadka to Hollywood's actioner Bad Boys, and came up with the comical entertainer Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. Despite clashing with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Bade Miyan... was a blockbuster.
8.Varun Dhawan's Judwaa 2
10 years after Judwaa, David Dhawan remade his own directorial with his son Varun Dhawan, Judwaa 2. This movie was also a blockbuster, and arguably, Varun's last major success at the box office.
