The director finds the perfect balance between happy and conflicting moments to make New York a great watch, filled with riveting moments.Īlthough some sequences are over looked to avoid controversies, that such movies usually generate, the unbiased screenplay is convincingly written and executed grippingly that you find yourself glued to the screen guessing what could happen next and each time you are left surprised. His second outing, yet again carries a very humane and sensitive plotline, well written by Aditya Chopra. The movie has a little dose of friendship as its strength but it widely deals with racism and more importantly the inhuman treatment of innocent suspects in the detention centers of USA post 9/11 attack.Īfter Kabul Express, director Kabir Khan has come a long way and New York could well be his claim to fame. Unlike some of YRF films, this time New York (the city) is the backdrop with a relevant reason. Roshan (Irrfan Khan), an FBI undercover agent, in attempts to protect the freedom that he believes everybody in America enjoys, takes us on a roller coaster ride. But one day an event that put the entire world into a state of shock changed their lives drastically, a change that was way beyond their control. New York revolves around three young, energetic and trouble-free friends Sam (John Abraham), Maya (Katrina Kaif) and Omar (Neil Nitin Mukesh) who discover a new world of happiness in each other’s company. At a time when Bollywood is dire, will such a theme that talks about social relevance work with the audience?

The film talks about friendship, freedom, racism and consequences of the 9/11 attack. New York produced by Aditya Chopra and directed by Kabir Khan (Kabul Express) is set against the back drop of a city filled with opportunities and freedom. Watching the promos of New York, I had this feeling that this John – Neil – Katrina starrer could be the one to break the trend of disastrous movies. After weeks of no show at multiplexes, we have all been waiting for a ‘good’ movie and quite frankly we haven’t yet had a decent release the whole of 2009.
