Dear God,
Yes, I admit I said that the aforesaid movie is at best a travel guide. A friend remarked that he liked the movie and that it reminded him of Dil chahta hai. Oh! Because it had three friends and three chicks too....”no way, Jose!” methinks.
Anyway, there is a part of the movie that strikingly stands out - a distinct parallel that the story draws on. And I figured that watching bits of the movie on second run.
Three friends undertake a trip agreeing to venture into a sport they had hitherto resisted by choice or fear. So:
1. Farhaan’s character is afraid of flight. His thoughts are profound and deep. He doesn’t let himself soar high. Deep diving and exploring world below complements his thoughts and character.
2. In contrast, Hrithik’s character is afraid of the deep. He has soared high all his life. And so he finds flight exciting and more comfortable.
3. Abhay’s character seals it with fear of what chases him on the ground. He is forever running from reality, sometimes accepting destiny when it presents itself in especially terrifying times.
