Release Date:
March 02, 2012

London Paris New York (LPNY) is a film that captures the angst of the twenties, the most dramatic period of one's life - when you have to find a career, you have your first significant relationship and most importantly form your identity in this world.

This is story about Lalitha, a middle class south Indian girl from Chembur(an eastern suburb in Mumbai) who is on her way to New York to study politics with full scholarship, and Nikhil, a Punjabi, rich kid from Bandra (a posh western suburb of Mumbai )who is going to study Film Making in London on 100% dad's money. They decide to hangout together one evening in London and find that they are completely drawn to each other even as their future lies on separate continents.

The film follows their personal journey and their love story as they meet in London, Paris and New York for a night each over eight years. The film is in three chapters and each chapter is shot in a manner that mirrors the mental state of Nikhil and Lalitha.

The actors are also bogged down by the writing, which ranges from inspired to insipid

Hindustan Times

The charismatic actors rise above the flawed script to deliver an easy, enjoyable evening at the movies

A film that sounds like an itinerary of newlyweds on an international honeymoon manages to deliver a desi rom com with flavour and zing

Indian Express

LPNY is a short and sweet romcom that will leave you with a smile

Yet another rom-com, which tries to be different, but doesn’t really succeed

The director wants us to believe we change at every stage of our lives, both in terms of appearance and our wants. An interesting theme which fails to take off. A sense of boredom sets in and the film drags

It is urbane, cool and thankfully, not dated. The simplicity of the dialogues makes it enjoyable

Times of India

There is a refreshing sweetness to it

India Today

Worth a one time watch with a loved one only for the lead pair. Don’t expect too much, might break your heart the second time

A complete mish-mash of rip-offs and clichés. The twists in the film are mostly predictable taking away the anticipation out of it completely.

It's a quirky, witty, coming-of-age movie that takes a conventional premise and twirls it into something delightfully unconventional, designed to charm and magnetize the urban youth
