I happened to watch this movie with my wife lately; nice happy movie, full of life, just like “Jab We Met”. It’s a story of three friends who are off to Spain to celebrate their bachelorhood as of one of them is soon to get married. Three weeks of adventure, fun and (bit of) philosophy that follows keeps your senses glued to the screen.
Each one of the protagonists is sub-consciously combating himself; running away from answering his own questions. Adventures and drives, fun with friends helps each one realize that all answers lie within them, one just needs to listen to his heart.
Movie characters relate closely to today’s youth, and movie situations, to their dilemma. There are Hrithik Roshans around who are running a rat race, forgetting completely that even if they win, they still remain rats. Running after money, envisaging a great future deprives them from enjoying their most valuable “present”. Abhay Deols refrain from speaking their hearts out; guilt ridden souls do not wish to (momentarily) hurt others while compromising on their most valuable asset called “life”. On the other side, there are even Farhan Akhtars who take life very casually; blissfully unknown that feelings coming straight out of heart can heal relations better.
While answering the protagonists, this movie also poses a few questions to the audience- what really matters more in life? What is it that should remain permanent in life- is it a heart delighting hobby or a tiring rat race? A well nourished personal relation or a selfish professional connection?
What is it that adds “life” to mere metabolism supported by breathing?
This movie is a MUST watch, and the message- worth implementing. Maybe watching this movie makes you understand why adding life to every moment, makes “moments in life” better :-)
Yaad hai kab dekha tha Sooraj ko aakhri baar ugate hue,
Kab nihara tha chand ko chandni main chalte hue,
Saanson main kaid kab ki thi foolon ki mahak,
Kab kaano main aakhri baar goonji thi masoom chidiya ki chahak,
Tanhai main baithe hue kab gufta-goo ki thi khud ke saath,
Kab kisi khoobsurat shayari ke liye dil se nikli thi- Irshaad,
Saare lamhe kho diye, sab kuchh paane ki chahat main,
Kabhi socha hai kya kya khoya hai- aisi jindagi bitane main??
