Zindagi Na Mile Dobara - Movie Review

''The Slice of Life'' Was it ? Yeah Certainly, Ever since the first promo got aired i wanted to see this movie , It seems so right. The cast , the Locales , the Feeling and the title , but yes it did came to mind, will Zoya Akhtar the director will be able to pull this? Since her last film ''Luck by chance was a box office dud.

she has not just pulled but brilliantly honed the director's cap . ZNMD is a treat to watch.

Its a simple story about 3 Friends on a road trip to spain for a bachelor party and this road trip changes their life forever as the film takes you for a roller coaster ride of Emotions , Adventure and breathtaking locations of spain (the unexplored one too).

Performance wise all the actors , Hrithik Roshan as a Stock broker based in London, Farhan Akhtar as a copywriter for Ad agency , abhay deol as a businessman having a construction company, Katrina and Kalki did justice to their role , nassurudin shah in his small cameo super impress me with his powerful persona.

But the major highlight of the movie is its cinematography. the way the movie has been captured by cinematographer Carlos Catalan will leave you awe struck . i have never seen a sky dive scene shot so brilliantly.

the best part of the movie is the chemistry between the 3 heroes. their fights , gossips , humor and fun all look so real . you will feel its a 'Bromantic movie'.

But yes ZNMD does not have a conventional story. also its also not for ardent fans of Bollywood masala movie.

Its like a wine, which you will want to savor it constantly .
Its telling you to slow down in life and enjoy the smallest moments ,
its telling you to earn for living not to live for earning.
Its telling you to explore the world and come out of your fears .

And Yes Its Tells you ... that sometimes to Know Yourself You need To loose Yourself.

Cant Stop BLeeding BluE!

Indiaaaah india.. after 12 hours i can still hear the voices loud and clear. I cant forget it for my lifetime it seems.

I cant forget the last six which dhoni blasted across the boundry to give india the historic win.
I cant forget the tears ,in the eyes of the toughest Men in blue followed by thousands in Wankhede and Millions of indian.

Cricket truly unites india .

I thought we lost it when sehwag got out with a duck and Sachin with a 18 run .
I switched off the Tv but my mother who otherwise introvert and shy said ''We cant loose against srilanka on saturday ''.i questioned her reasoning and logic and she said LordHanuman burnt the lanka on saturday . well who dares to question the mythology.

And i all set with lord Hanuman on my mind for the match. Jai shri Ram

Cricket is truly a Religion.

Well post Match Victory india become hynotic .The neighbours dint bother the loud volume noise. The cops dint cared for 10 pm DJ and loundspeaker limit as they cant stop the whole nation.

i dared to got out to catch the glimpse of my beautiful and silent Nagpur city, and oh my ! what a Madness .
Again cricket made me dumb struck with the action around.

No carnival can compare this . Thousands of bikes with indian FLag ..roaring indiaaah india.
cars fill with people above the roof . people in full capacity in the boot of their car. trucks , autos , 3 wheelers fill with people .i witness all the festivals of india in 1 hour . Right from never stopping crackers of diwali , colours of holy and yes Janmasthmi too, as there were people above people .

Lots of shoba yatra type decorated vehicles. lots of bands(sandal) and they were all happy.

Struck in a traffic Jam Near shankar Nagar i witnessed all this sitting inside my car with my famlily, windows rolled up.

It came to my mind that this was no bollywood movie and no Political party can do this .

There were painted people , semi naked people . there were childrens there were adults .

BUT there were no Hindus, no Muslims no Sikh and Parsi .there were no Sc/St . No rich No poor.

Because for the first time i Could only find INDIANS..and they were all Bleeding Blue!.
