If The Proposal hit the spot, these will too

Heartbreak played for big laughs with real ache underneath
The difference: Raunchier and male-POV — breakup wallowing over screwball setup

Polished pros trading banter until real feeling sneaks in
The difference: The romance splits across two couples — less delicious friction

Both land wit and play at once
The difference: Reviewed even better

Opposites thrown together on a journey neither one planned
The difference: Bollywood scale and songs — a slower, more soulful romance

The same mix in both: romance, then tenderness

An uptight New Yorker undone by someone infuriatingly charming
The difference: A Bollywood tearjerker — pack tissues, not popcorn

A guarded heart softened somewhere far from home
The difference: Earnest to a fault — the wit is much thinner on the ground

The same director's glossy wedding-world wish fulfillment
The difference: Sweeter and safer — no barbed boss-assistant sparring

An uptight outsider dropped into a family that won't behave
The difference: A bittersweet Christmas ensemble — real grief among the laughs

Comedy built on stillness, twice over

Witty romance, and it commits to that

Drama with a pulse of play, in both cases
