Jobs (2013)
Ashton Kutcher stars in the titular role of Steve Jobs, a college dropout destined for greatness but riddled with eccentricities. The PVR Pictures film tracks Jobs’s journey from being a gifted student, to his spiritual transformation while visiting India, and eventual reconciliation with Lisa, with whom he goes on to build a long and cherished bond, naming one of his most famous computers after her.
We’ve all had fights and misunderstandings with our dads, but in the end love always wins, which is what Jobs conveys, and the reason why it’s a must watch!

Liam Neeson headlines the cast as Robert, a free spirited artist who is bottling up the pain of a dead wife.

The film asks us to let go of the past and cherish each moment spent with the people we call our own.
Pele: Birth of a Legend (2016)
Got a football crazy father at home? Why not dress up in your favourite jerseys and get ready to experience a film on one of the greatest athletes of all time?

Nebraska (2013)
A bittersweet ode to fathers, this Alexander Payne directorial doesn’t shy away from showing the awkward freckles in a parent and child’s relationship.
