Wiki.
Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (transl. You Only Live Once), also abbreviated as ZNMD, is a 2011 Hindi-language coming-of-age adventure drama film directed by Zoya Akhtar and produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani under Excel Entertainment. The film stars an ensemble cast of Hrithik Roshan, Abhay Deol, Farhan Akhtar, Katrina Kaif and Kalki Koechlin. A co-production between India and Spain, the film was filmed in Spain, India, Egypt, and the United Kingdom on a budget of ₹45 crore (equivalent to ₹93 crore or US$12 million in 2023). The music and background score are composed by Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy with lyrics by Javed Akhtar.
The film's story follows three childhood friends, Arjun, Kabir, and Imran, who reunite for a three-week road trip. They set off to Spain and meet Laila, who falls in love with Arjun and helps him overcome his compulsion to work. Kabir and his fiancée Natasha experience significant misunderstandings, while Imran wishes to meet his biological father, an artist. During their trip, each friend chooses a dangerous sport for the group to partake in.
Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara was initially planned to release on 27 May 2011, but technical problems with post-production work led to the release being postponed to 24 June, and again to 15 July that year. The film had a worldwide release on 1,800 screens and was a commercial success grossing ₹1.53 billion (US$19 million) and received widespread critical acclaim for its direction, story, screenplay, music, humor, cinematography and performances of the ensemble cast.
