​Swiss tennis star Roger Federer on Wednesday took to Twitter to ask for Bollywood film suggestions. He first tweeted, "Any movie suggestions?" followed by "A Bollywood classic maybe?" 

Many Indian fans recommended cult classics, but Federer also got introduced to a lot of Arbaaz Khan's film titles.

Some of the answers included 'Andaz Apna Apna', 'Rang De Basanti' and 'Lage Raho Munna Bhai'. Federer also thanked a user who suggested the films 'Dangal', 'Sholay', 'Lagaan' and 'Jodhaa Akbar'.

The 20-time Grand Slam champion was last seen on the tennis court helping Team Europe win the Laver Cup against Team World. 

Many Indian fans recommended cult classics, but Federer also got introduced to a lot of Arbaaz Khan's film titles. Khan has been frequently called a doppelganger of the tennis star. 

From Khan's debut film 'Daraar', to 'Hello Brother' to 'Soch'- fans replied to Federer's tweet with the film posters. 

A fan gave him a complete list of a few Bollywood cults including `Tare Zameen Par,` `Dangal,` Oscar-nominated `Lagaan,` `Mother India` and `Salaam Bombay` to watch. Others suggested he check out `Gully Boy` which was recently selected as India`s official entry for Oscar Awards. Most of the player`s fans and followers recommended him popular sports dramas like `Chak De! India`, `Dangal,` `Bhaag Milkha Bhaag,` `Lagaan` and `Sultan`. 

Federer was busy on the microblogging website, replying to people's tweets and GIFs of his favourite movies, including 'Inception', 'Good Will Hunting' and 'The Shawshank Redemption'.
