Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara !


Zoya Akhtar, the director of this movie has silenced all her critics and has proved that she was not just lucky with "Luck By Chance" but that she indeed is a powerhouse of talent to reckon with.

For a change we have a director who understands that audience do have a brain and can think.

This movie is about 3 friends on a bachelor's party to Spain and their life changing experiences. The 3 musketeers are Imran(Farhan), Kabir(Abhay) and Arjun(Hrithik).

Abhay Deol's dilemma if he is marrying the right person, Hrithik's obsession with work for the sake of a secure financial life, Farhan's strained relationship with his parents, strikes a chord with all of us.

The best thing about this movie is the way the director has conveyed the meaning and importance of living life fully without preaching and without getting too sentimental.

All the actors have done justice to their roles including Katrina and Kalki. For me the highlights were of course Farhan's expressions in every scene, his antics and the deep intensity of his eyes which expresses a range of emotions.

Some of the scenes that you wont forget for a long time are -

1. The banter of "mantally sick bwouy" between Farhan and Abhay.
2. The scene in the restroom where they start shouting at the same time.
3. The scene where Katrina comments upon Hrithik's pink cell phone.
4. The 15,000 ft bungee jumping scene.
5. The misunderstood proposal scene.
5. The out running of bulls in the last scene.
6.And of course the antics and Shayaris by Farhan.


This movie leaves you feeling good and smiling and thinking of how you are going to live your life fully in the present. And yes you will be humming the songs while you do that.
