Kabir ( Abhay Deol) has just met Natasha. 6 months later they are engaged. He wants to go on an extended bachelor party. A 3 week road trip with Imraan (Farhan Akhtar) and Arjun (Hrithik Roshan) – his 2 friends since school. The only problem is Arjun is too tied up with work. After much emotional blackmail and cajoling the boys set off on a journey they were meant to take 4 years ago.

A fantasy holiday they had planned to take after college but never happened. A road trip where each one gets to do the ultimate sport of his choice and other two just have to do it with him. Whether they want to or not.

Kabir, Imraan and Arjun meet up in Barcelona and set off on an adventure that will not only make them iron out their differences but also face their fears, alter their perception, unravel their fabric, force them to break out of the box and teach them to seize the day.

In other words, a holiday that will change their life forever.

Life is one long vacation, if you can dare yourself to think of it that way. We are a generation that can afford to live life moment-by-moment. So, why aren't we. Go watch the film, before all the people who've loved it get you so excited about it that you are left disappointed.

“Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara” (ZNMD) is a slow poem walking the ramp in loads of colours. The costume designing by Arjun Bhasin has accentuated the harmonic photography of Carlos Catalan. Spain with its stunning appeal looks vulnerable to tourist’s fantasy.

ZNMD is TLC meets Robin Sharma against the biutiful backdrop of Spain. It was designed to make you feel good and it achieves that.

ZNMD by no stretch is a bad film. A road movie with a smooth road (read story) laid out but with too many traffic jams perhaps. The viewer doesn’t quite join the characters in their journey. Vibrant yet woefully vacant at times.

ZNMD is well-directed, even though it’s story is stretched thin at times. The first half is full of great humor – casual, everyday humor, natural and well-shot. The second half flags just a little bit, and I thought the ending a tad abrupt. Music by Shankar-Ehsaan & Loy is average although “Khaabon ke parinday” and “Ik Junoon” stood out.

This film is to a great extent a “guy” film, more so than “Dil chahta hai” ever was. The main characters here are the three men, and ZNMD is about male bonding while doing “manly” stuff.

This is a good film, but falls sort of the “Dil Chahta Hai” mark – I give it a 4 star rating, with reservations.
