Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011)

This movie is nothing special but cinematography may enchanting to the viewers!! ItsIt's all about the story and lifestyle of trendy guys. Overall it's worth watching!! Locations of shooting also were attractive. Some viewers may find it's a fusion of Bollywood with Spanish lifestyle!!

The subject is not new: Three men on a road trip, thinking about their life choices, evolving and maturing throughout the movie, finding new goals and healing old wounds. Indian movies are not what I usually prefer. I chose to watch ZNMD because of two reasons: Hrithik Roshan, an actor I saw in KKKG and was deeply impressed with. And the plot being set in Europe. I wanted to see how much an Indian movie can catch the atmosphere so different from India.To anticipate the outcome of this review: It was a through and through positive movie experience. I will definitely watch Indian movies more often than I did until now.Before Kabir (Abhay Deol) gets married he wants to fulfill a pact he made with his two best friends, Imraan (Farhan Akhtar) and Arjun (Hrithik Roshan). Each of them will surprise the other two with some adventure sport experience they will do for the first time together. For this they travel through Spain and find not only adventures, but laughs and loves, new insights and unexpected outcomes. Director Zoya Akhtar has found a way to make a new movie out of an old theme. Charming, compelling and – thanks to the protagonists – totally believable. Among all the good performances Hrithik Roshan stands out. His change from the smart businessman to a man thinking about his life choices is intense but still with the kind of lightness and charisma that suits exactly the tone the director sets for the whole movie. Cool demeanor and vulnerability, strengths and weaknesses of his character – Hrithik Roshan portrays all the different facets with sensible acting, touching emotional involvement and a humorous streak you wouldn't expect first seeing him on the screen. Abhay Deol as the future groom has all the sympathies in his role as the balance between his two friends, but shows the complexity of his character in the course of the movie. Farhan Akhtar characterizes the free spirit of Imraan – believable and intense. He is at his best in the humorous and in the very quiet scenes of the movie. Katrina Kaif portrays a sensible woman, full of dreams yet down to earth and Kalki Koechlin shows in her scenes that she is an actress with presence and good comic timing.Outstanding of course the music and the dance scenes full of rhythm and fun. Again, it is no surprise that Hrithik Roshan – known for his great dancing skills – is the heart of these parts of the movie, though without showing off. So it is the concerted performance of all the protagonists that gives the movie its special flair. As European I have often seen Europe or parts of Europe characterized in a way that makes me slightly cringe. Not this time. Europe – more specifically Spain – is portrayed recognizable and simpatico. I have since learned that this lightness and humour on one side, the depth of content on the other side is not the norm in Hindi Movies. As the rare gem among them that ZNMD is I can only recommend to watch it as outstanding example of Indian films.A movie not only for Bollywood lovers. You will agree at the end of the film – we all should give us the chance to have new movie experiences. Because we all know: Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara – you don't live twice 😉

This is fantastic movie even Hollywood cinema can agree that Indian cinemas has great standard values in making of road trip movies. I always felt Hollywood is greatest industry they have innovative thoughts always some kind of movies we can't make like inception, But we have also some standard this movie represents so superb thought of from Indian heart.Hrithik Roshan,Farhan Akthar,Abhay deol,Katrina kaif and Kalki...superb cast who never replaced by others..especially three friends Hrithik,Farhan,Abhay they have done great job. Indian youth attracted to this film lot and lot. We difinitely admire this film because as we have all enjoyed childhood things, friend with fun during college, current life standards and joyful moments everything is showed wow what a decent manner. The heart touching movie to Indian youth. Everyone youth under 30 either 30 they want to do this kind trip with friends at least once in life dobara tho nai milega... Best friends mind and their fun making in every situation, move with friends situationally...great good it could be favourite movie to all youth...because the trend right now and generation is going on like this..they do something after job life before marriage life...This would be best picture list in Indian cinema ever thank to Zindagi na milegi Dobara team...

YES, this is the movie I've always wanted out of the bollywood and i'm very happy watching this one.it tells you about the untold part of the life and believe me you'll love it...the movie is about three friends, all are of their own kind. arjun, imran and kabir all had a bet about their holiday trip... the one who plans won't tell about it to others it becomes fun when they get to Spain and meet after a long time . They get some more excited(actually we) when they get to places which they are afraid of in their life and after experiencing that they realize that it was awesome. all that kind of stuff as the beautiful poems by Javed akhtar, the music that I loved a lot, the way of representation, everything about it....Don't think just watch it once....I promise You'll love it
