London Paris NEW YORK: Rather than roaming the world, your house is the best place to be !
13 March 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Bollywood can treat you with a 'Kahaani' and at the same time, it can delude you with 'London Paris NewYork'. This movie is a very bad attempt (to say the least) to recreate 'Before Sunrise' and 'Before Sunset' (which were both quite good).

The movie is about a film- maker Nikhil Chopra (Ali Zafar) who is a typical rich guy with inherited wealth from his family. He meets Aditi aka Lalita at London airport and they spend the day & night together. They promise to meet in New York after 6 months. 2 years later, we are in Paris. Nikhil is here to find her and they meet in one of the pubs where she has changed from a geek to someone who has breathed the Western air. If you have seen the movie till here, you have done the hard part. We are at intermission.

The second half begins well. After spending the night in Paris, Aditi ditches Ali. She tells about her journey from NY to London, just to see him with someone else in bed. She believes this is her revenge and will destroy Ali the way it destroyed her. Here we feel we have some justice to the pathetic first half. Few years later, we are in NY. Ali is here to meet Aditi and they spend another night together. The next morning when they wake up, Aditi is to marry a new guy Alan. Ali cant believe it. How I wish, this was the end.. but Bollywood HAS to have a happy ending and you know what happens next.

Ali Zafar can't stop over acting and Aditi Rao portrays herself as a complete rookie..The songs are a complete let down.. You are better of watching a nonsensical comedy like 'Ready' where at least you have Salman Khan to look at. This one's even worse ! AVOID in caps.
