Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara Reviews

Fantastic Movie...Just Got in Delivered through Flipkart. Great Service...Nice Movie About Friends After Dil Chahta Hai,.. Feeling Really Good That I Own This DVD...Keep it up Flipkart with your Service...

Loved the movie and so bought the VCD for my personal collection. Flipkart service makes the experience more worthwhile. Kudos to the makers and the actors. Love the cinematography and the film awards this year justify my view too.. Good acting and direction, everything so seamlessly fits in together, right from the acting to the music to the message.. Good work Zoya!

The first time I saw the movie, it was a good normal timepass movie. But when i saw it the 2nd time and the 3rd time, I began loving it more. great movie. bought the dvd to watch it more and enjoy it more.

I purchased this movie on bluray & they don't have any special features on it.... This is really bad... Don't get confused this bluray will disappoint you if you're looking for special features as well. Otherwise I'll rate this movie 4 out of 5 & bluray 3 out of 5.
Interesting part I would love to tell you guys about this film is after the film's release, Zoya Akhtar expressed an idea to make a sequel of the film. Speaking about it, she said "You never know, I might or may not make a sequel. It all depends on the right content." Reacting to that, Hrithik stated "Only one guy gets married in ZNMD and we still have two bachelors left, so a sequel would be a good idea. Why not Zoya? Well movie is good so will look forward to the sequel of the movie.

ZNMD is one of those rare films which influences you.It actually inspired four of us friends to take a trip..a bachelor trip at Goa (DCH anyone??). Subtle yet layered, ZNMD is a masterful piece of work just like Zoya's extremely under appreciated debut film, Luck by Chance.Superbly acted & brilliantly executed,ZNMD is a cult film as far as Hindi cinema is concerned.The fact that the director respects the intelligence of the paying audience adds a cherry on this delicious cake. And three cheers to flipkart's service as usual.

I was initially pretty floored by this film -- fantastic direction, visuals, editing, screen chemistry, and great music -- but looking back, I might come down to rate the movie as a pleasant watch for an intelligent audience. I really did like the characterisation of each of the three male actors -- and some of the insights into human relationships.

However, the philosophy of the film can come across as a bit prescriptive and preachy -- which kills its eventual effect in the long run.

It seems that Zoya Akhtar and Farhan Akhtar have tried to pass on the lessons of their own life and their own stories of growing up -- which is a great thing to do, but a great story is not just about the message that the writer/director is yearning to give out; it is about how indirectly it can be told. Unfortunately because of this, some people have admonished the film as idealistic and adolescent.

The male characterisation is great, but the female characterisation required more work. I think more insights into the female psyche would have given a certain thematic balance to the film. Katrina Kaif has an elegant role, but she may come across as a little too nice, and a little too flawless to be true. Kalki is caricatured because of her over possessive tendency towards the character of Kabir, her boyfriend, played by Abhay Deol -- something that could have been avoided. I feel the film would have a far greater longevity in the mind of the audience if the characterisation of the women hadn't been so simplistic.

Overall, the film is a very well-intended one. It does provide some interesting psychological insights through references to psychology and Freud, and comments on how important it is to address issues that are bothering you.

Perhaps there is a larger reason behind letting the female characters take a backseat in the film. Male emotional issues have been ignored for longer than women's have.

There is also another interesting aspect to the film. This aspect is about the effect that economic class and status have on one's personality, which is played out between the three characters, each respectively symbolising the upper class (Abhay Deol), the middle class (Farhan Akhtar), and the rags-to-riches class (Hrithik Roshan). I liked the indication to how these three relate to each other.

The film also brings out the local culture of Spain and traveling through Europe, which is an arena that conventional films have so far not ventured into. Films like these break out of the old-fashioned mystical romance, and come down to talk about love and relationships from a more earthly, human perspective.

This is why I found the movie so refreshing.

guys this movie is amazing and the Blu Ray Features adds so much more to the movie that it becomes more amazing.The story is very awesome and the movie adds new meaning to friendship and love for me

highly recommend

The movie is super duper awesome....but the DVD doesn't do justice. The picture quality is not crisp as in other movie DVDs. I guess EROS always messes up like this. As most DVDs published by EROS are of average quality.

ZNMD is probably the only movie worth seeing in 2011, amidst a crop of heat-and-serve lazypics such as Bodyguard, Haunted, Mausam, et al. The direction is fantastic, making every scene special with subtle nuances despite the plot not being very profound. The cinematography is immersive, not just the way it captures Spain, but in the way it engages you from interesting point of views. The DVD is good, though the sound could have been better. The disappointing factor was lack of a director's commentary (a la Johnny Gaddar, one of the best Indian DVDs, irrespective of how you liked or not the movie!) or any true special feature. The second disc is merely a collection of promo footage seen on TV. Hearing Zoya, Farhan and Javed saab talk about developing the poetry and themes would have added to the ZNMD experience

Purchased the DVD and was so looking forward to watching the movie since I had missed it in Cinemas. To my astonishment the movie was available on Satellite TV and the DVD I purchased a few weeks ago skips at places, the picture and sound quality is much to desire from!

Don't buy the DVD, they are faulty and expensive! Watch it instead on TV for free!
