10 Best Rain Scenes In The Film History That You Can Not Forget

The rain has become one of the most iconic scenes to make romantic movies become even more inspirational. Now, let's have a quick review of the 10 most unforgettable rain scenes of all time.

Undoubtedly, a romantic movie may not be complete without the rain scene. The rain has been very useful to convey the story as well as affection to the viewers. It can bring out an excellent visual effect along with surging emotions.

As we are in the middle of the rainy season, why don't we recall some historical rain scenes? From Bollywood to Hollywood, here comes the list that you're waiting for.

1. Wake Up Sid (2009)

The movie is the love story of two strangers bumping into each other in Mumbai. The moment they realize that they have feelings for each other is also when the sky pours the first rain of the season. Sid (Ranbir Kapoor) and Aisha (Konkana Sen Sharma) did give the audience an extremely impressive shot.

2. The Shawshank Redemption (1994)

When Andy Dufresne (played by Tim Robbins) finally gets out of prison, he is welcomed by heavy rain. He looks up into the night sky and let the downpour wash all over him. The shot not only transfers a meaningful message but also gives us the feeling of being rejuvenated. One word: Iconic!

3. Mr. India (1987)

Mr. India (Anil Kapoor) and Seema (Sridevi) has given the next generation with a charming rain song to admire. Even though the film has won a lot of awards for its direction and plot twist, it is the romantic song and the blue sari look of Sridevi that represents the 80s movie genre.

4. Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)

This must be one of the greatest rain scenes in Hollywood celluloid. George Peppard (in the role of Paul Varjak) leaves Audrey Hepburn (in the role of Holly Golightly) in the pouring but as soon as he walks away, Holly realizes her feeling and runs after him.

5. Lagaan (2001)

Temporarily put aside romantic films, Lagaan is deserved to be praised as one of the most inspirational movies of all time. It is about the fighting of some villagers against the British Raj in order to get a waiver on unfair tax. The rain comes down to celebrate the villagers' unbelievable victory.

6. Mohra (1994)

Akshay Kumar together with Raveena Tandon has created one of the most memorable rain scenes in the Bollywood film industry. The songs for flirtatious dances in the monsoon season is always on top of our nostalgic playlist for a rainy day. The couple's chemistry is blooming in the rain with the alluring soundtrack.

7. Singin’ in the Rain (1952)

Rain seems to be the default for sadness but not in this 50s musical movie. This must be one of the happiest rain scenes we've ever witnessed. After having kissed the beauty - Kathy Selden (starred by Debbie Reynolds),  Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) cheerfully dances in the street in the pouring rain.

8. The Notebook (2004)

It will be a huge mistake if we exclude this classic romantic movie from the list. The chemistry of Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling is something out of this world. The heavy downpour, the painful facial expressions of the two characters together with bitter lines, all combine to create a scene for life.

9. Dil To Pagal Hai (1997)

Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan) and Pooja (Madhuri Dixit) are on their way home, suddenly stuck in the pouring rain. Coming across a group of kids who are singing and dancing, the couple joined happily.

10. Spider-Man (2002)

Spider-Man's kiss scene is given to the name - The Upside Down Kiss as Spider-man (Tobey Maguire) hangs himself upside down from the web and gets kissed by Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst), somewhere in New York City on a rainy night.

It seems that, for writers, rain is considered as an effective device to tell stories. Which shot from the list of 10 best rain scenes that impress you the most?
