4. Frozen

Frozen Disney Plus Hotstar

Directors – Jennifer Lee & Chris Buck
Cast – Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel

Frozen is a story of two inseparable sisters, magical powers, villain and a perfect amount of drama. A singing snowman, Olaf, makes an appearance and makes the movie even more extraordinary. The song “Let it go” from this movie has topped charts and is captivating. The voice cast includes Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Josh Gad and many others who have done a terrific job. The storyline is not that great. But the animations and effects make it likable. The Disney musical extravaganza teaches the lessons of loyalty and love for family. Overall, it’s a wonderful story that highlights the significance of a sister-sister relationship.


3. Moana

Moana Disney Plus Hotstar

Directors – Ron Clements & John Musker
Cast – Auli’i Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson

Moana is easily the closest to my heart because unlike any other Disney princesses who are all dressed up and classy, Moana is about a simplistic little girl who is on a quest to achieve something in her life. It also involves a demi-god and supernatural forces which makes the movie compelling to watch. It is all about the good-bad, love-hate and selfless emotions which make Moana easily one of the Best Disney Movies on Disney Plus.


2. Lilo And Stitch

Lilo and Stitch Disney Plus Hotstar

Directors – Chris Sanders & Dean DeBlois

My second favorite Disney movie of all time (after Moana), Lilo And Stitch is about a crazy alien experiment subject who escapes and meets a young girl in Hawaii. And the rest of the story is about how they get along and become close friends. On the technical side of things, the animation is quite simple as it isn’t a fairy tale. The narrative promises some good laughs in between, and the character Stitch has always been a personal favorite of mine. It is also a female-centric movie with a minimal romantic angle involved. You’ll often get to hear “Ohana means family” throughout the entire film and it will most definitely touch your heart.


1. Big Hero 6

Big Hero Disney Plus Hotstar

Directors – Don Hall & Chris Williams
Cast – Ryan Potter, Scott Adsit

Yet another animated masterpiece by Disney, Big Hero 6 has deep characterization, stunning visuals, and a unique storyline. It is an action-packed comedy with added dramatic elements that will evoke a wide range of emotions within you and the absence of the typical drama and romance makes Big Hero a special movie to watch.
