Movie Review: Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara

Three friends, Imran (Farhaan), Kabir (Abhay Deol) and Arjun (Hrithik) set off on a  road trip in Spain, a 3 week bachelor party of adventure and discovery before Kabir gets hooked. But each one is also on his personal road trip, a journey of self discovery and a search for meaning in life.

The movie is a treat for the senses - the stunning Spanish countryside is a riot of color. You explore the wonders of the underwater corals in the company of thousands of multi-colored fish, you sky dive and hurtle towards earth... you get red and wet in the tomatino festival, and sweat it out as you run with the bulls. Your feet tap to the passionate beats of the Spanish tango, and your spirits rise with the beautiful compositions from Javed Akhtar. The sound track is passionate, and will grow on you ever so quickly.

The cast is fastastic, and you will be hard pressed to find a favourite. Abhay pulls in yet another admirable performance as the guy confused about the girl he's about to marry. Farhan is lovable as the happy go lucky writer, with his sense of humour and timing, and a secret in his heart. Hrithik looks great, and puts in an awesome performance as the stock broker learning a new way to live after he falls in love with the ever-so-beautiful and effervescent Laila (Katrina). Kalki is her usual unusual self, and Naseeruddin also plays a great cameo.

I loved every second of this new DCH, and can watch this 5 starrer at least a dozen more times without getting tired. Go watch it! Aisa movie na milega dobara :)
