The film depicts the coming of age of a trio of young urbane successful Indians who have to go through certain rites of passage to reach self realization. Zoya does this beautifully thus elevating what could have been a very ordinary story to a level where it achieves an iconic status. In the last decade we have seen how some filmmakers have quickly adopted a new idiom, a meta language to depict the changing world order and the place that the modern urban Indian holds within it.
Zoya's film is a wonderful expression and exploration of the new social dynamics in a fresh new idiom heralded by her brother's earlier work. Farhan Akhtar's Dil Chahta Hai was an iconic movie and was like a breath of fresh air at the time of its release.
