As Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara completes 10 years of release, here’s what this Zoya Akhtar directorial taught us that stayed with us forever.

Indian cinema has witnessed some impressive movies over the year across genres that have managed to win millions of hearts. These movies come with a great ensemble of cast and an impressive storyline which leaves a mark on the audience. One such movie was Zoya Akhtar directorial Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara starring Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar, Abhay Deol and Katrina Kaif in the lead. To note, this happened to be Zoya’s second directorial and she did manage to prove her mettle as a successful director.
Although Zoya had given several impressive movies in her career of over a decade, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara will always be close to my heart. For the uninitiated, this Zoya Akhtar directorial revolves around three friends – Kabir (played by Abhay Deol), Arjun (played by Hrithik Roshan) and Imran (played by Farhan Akhtar). It is a story of three childhood friends who go on a trip to Spain but it turns out to be a trip of self discovery. Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara did not just come with some beautiful picturesque locales, along with a heartfelt storyline and good cast, but also some important life lessons which are also the need of the hour in this fast running life.

However, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara gives us an opportunity to think and realise that it’s okay to take out time for ourselves and that this continuous work will not give us everything.
Your friends know you the best
We all need some relations in our life which stand by us through thick and thin and doesn’t judge us for the choices we make. But they always have our back. In fact, these are the people who can read our silences. There is no point in hiding things from them as they know us better than we know ourselves.
Live in the moment and seize the day
Life is all about living in the present. Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara taught us that given the unpredictable nature of life, it is important to live in the moment instead of worrying about the future or regret about the past. Make the most of today.
Learn to forgive and forget
There is no point in holding the grudges as it will hamper your peace of mind. Instead, just let go of the negativity and revive a beautiful relationship.
