Raanjhanaa: Anand L. Rai's Raanjhanaa was Dhanush's Bollywood debut movie. A moment in the film where Sonam Kapoor paints Dhanush with holi colour. Everything about that moment was adorable. Dhanush's depiction of a one-sided lover was awe-inspiring in that moment. (Image Source: YouTube/Eros Now Music)

Mohabbatein: A memorable scene from Mohabbatein where Shah Rukh Khan's character Raj successfully persuades the rigorous principal of Gurukul, Narayan Shankar (Amitabh Bachchan), with a teeka of gulaal. As Amitabh lowers his chin in respect for the teeka, he permits the students to celebrate Holi. Both the characters put aside their differences and came together, symbolising the victory of love.
