Thought provoking cinema is rather rare in the world of Hindi movies. Sad but true. We're all about escape which is great for most of the the time but it doesn't hurt to once in a while use this ever-so-popular medium of communication to convey some very relevant, justifiable and thought provoking issues to your audience. Director Kabir Khan and writer Aditya Chopra created this rare opportunity with their latest outing New York.
Its rather amazing to read Aditya Chopra's name as the writer of the film when the credits roll for the shear fact that this is the same man who's given films of a completely different genre and made a niche for himself in such a genre. He's list of works as script writer include some of the biggest commercial ventures in recent years such as Bachna Ae Haseeno, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Laga Chunari Mein Daag etc etc and let me say reading that list of films would not have led me conclude that he's skills were capable of writing a story of such a genre but surprises I always welcome and that is what New York is. The same man who wrote the horrendous script of RNBDJ where I was required to believe that a wife wouldn't recorgnise her husband simply because he dressed differently and shaved is capable of writing a film posing one of the most relevant conundrums of the 21st century is a surprise in all aspects! However I must move on to New York as this is it's review and sadly not one of Aditya Chopra's filmography.
So New York, New York, New York....where to begin? The film leaves with you with so much to think about, so much recapture in your brain that its rather difficult pulling your thoughts together to form a conclusion about what you've just witnessed but nevertheless I'll try to get my thoughts in order for your sake!
