Not only Udaipur, the movie made people fall in love with the picturesque Manali where they went on a trip. This also can be a perfect destination to go with your BFFs.
2. Goa
When we saw Dil Chahta Hai, we all wanted to go to Goa and have the time of our lives. This Friendship Day, take the Goa trip with your friends and visit the picturesque Chapora Fort, where the trio (Saif Ali Khan, Aamir Khan, and Akshaye Khanna) shared their deepest secrets and laughter. You and your friends can also go to the pristine beaches of Palolem and Baga, and enjoy the vibrant nightlife of Calangute, and try local seafood and Portuguese cuisine.
3. Khardung La
For a different adventure, you can also make a trip to Ladakh and go to the Khardung La just like Ratna Pathak Shah, Dia Mirza, Sanjana Sanghi, and Fatima Sana Sheikh did in Dhak Dhak. The moments they shared while reaching the destination only made them strong as friends.

6. Barcelona
When we talk about Friendship Day, one film that spontaneously comes to our mind is Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar, Abhay Deol, and Katrina Kaif starrer inspired many fans to visit Barcelona and get to know the places they see in the movie in person. The streets, architecture, nature and everything were beautiful in the movie.

The film also sparked off India's love affair with the Swiss Alps. There is also a Chopra Lake in Alpenrausch and a Chopra train run by Jungfrau Railways.
8. Rohtang Pass
In Jab We Met, we saw Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan's characters shooting the famous song Yeh Ishq Hai. The ice-filled road inspired people to visit the location. You can also make a trip with your friends. The beauty of Himachal Pradesh will surely freshen up your mind and give you energy.
9. Kerala
Chennai Express was shot in some places in Kerala. You can visit Wai, Dudhsagar Falls, Munnar Tea plantations, Meesapulimala, Vattamalai Murugan Temple, and others. The scenes in the movie gave the audience a glimpse of these beautiful locations that can be explored on this Friendship Day.
10. Amsterdam
Another international destination is Amsterdam which was shown in the movie Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. The song Kaun Nachdi was filmed in Amsterdam, also known as The Venice of the North.
