Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, a movie which goes beyond any other Bollywood cinema, completes 5 years today!
This movie understood our generation more than we did and this is precisely why it holds a special place in our hearts.
The movie was helmed by Zoya Akhtar and starred Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar, Abhay Deol, Katrina Kaif and Kalki Koechlin in lead roles.
A movie about unadulterated friendship, it spoke heart-to-heart with all of us and taught us so much with its simple yet attention-worthy dialogues.
Here are 5 lessons that ZNMD taught us:
1. You only live once
This is one lesson that the title of the movie itself teaches us. This title is well justified throughout the movie and tells us that there's one life to live so live it in the best manner.
''Hawa ke jhokon ke jaise aazad rehno seekho, tum ek dariya ke jaise lehron mein behna seekho, har ek lamhe se tum milo khole apni baahen, har ek pal ek naya samha dekhe yeh nigaahen''

2. Overcome your fears
We will miss the magic of life if we stay enclosed in the box of fears. Get up and fight your worst fear because YOU CAN! Overcoming your fears will transform your personality and make you more confident than ever.
''Insaan ko dibbe mein sirf tab hona chahiye ... jab woh mar chuka ho''
3. Money can't buy everything!
Money can't buy you happiness so take a break every once in a while instead of being a total workaholic and do what makes you happy.
Cause, ''Kabhi pay check milte waqt ... tumhare aankhon mein aasun aye hai?''
4. You can't hide anything from your friends
No matter how much you try to hide by lying, your friends will catch the truth. They won't hesitate to give you a truthful advice even if you don't accept it. Apparently, they know you better than you know yourself!
''Tu hai tanha kab yaha, sab hi toh hai yaha''

5. Live in the present
Make the most of today and don't fret over your tomorrow, which is uncertain. Live in the moment because kya pata kal ho na ho!
''Seize the day my friend ... pehle is din ko poori tarah jiyo, phir chalis ke bare mein soochna''
