A movie for urban youngistan !
3 March 2012
About London Paris New York(LPNY) : It's a semi fresh romantic drama and not an absolute romcom...Basic idea is borrowed from a Hollywood movie and British novel "One Day" ....

LPNY is a 100 minute film .... Its all about 3days...3 cities ....two protagonists of contrasting nature...Their angst... Their love ... Break up ... patch up... (and pack up ;) over eight years. Its also about growing up – how we change, how we stay the same.( Time flies, season changes, but essential remains the same )

Director debutant...Anu Menon deserves words of praise not only because she dared to touch distinct subject but also wrote good story and dialogues for her first film. As a director she needs to brush-up..coz she failed to exploit optimum potential of the script. Had Karn Johar or Imtyaz Ali touched the subject... It could have been a block buster ...

Short & slick film has only two protagonists I.e Ali zafar and Aditi Rao Hydari... Rest are one liners .

Versatile Ali Zafar ....!!! He has carried multiple responsibility for the film .... an actor, Lyricists,Musician and singer ... ( acting part can be improved , few plots are overacted ... Seems more like a melodrama sometimes, Music dept. is good)

Aditi justifies her role in different stages... She Can be a hope for Bollywood...

To conclude: As LPNY is carrying a different story... It is for Urban youngistan or People who stay young at heart... If you fall in the category , you may like it
