Ok I’ll indulge. DCH is coming of age story about preserving friendship after conflict. That’s one aspect of ZNMD (with Farhan & Hrithik’s angle) but then goes beyond that to fighting your own demons. Whether conquering actual explicit fears, such as heights, underwater, or life, or implicit ones like marrying someone you don’t actually love, or being too ambitious to not be able to enjoy life, and searching for someone your whole life only to find out it wasn’t worth it. These nuances make for a more emotional connect.

DCH >> ZNMD. DCH changed the definition of cool in Bollywood. And inspired a generation of filmmakers and gave us shankar-ehsaan-Loy. Was also the first to use sync sound instead of dub actor’s lines. ZNMD is a breezy summer watch at best and rich-people-problems at worst (a charge that can be leveled against DCH but wasn’t because Goa is way more affordable and realistic a travel destination for middle class college youth than Spain - target demographic for both movies).

No changing needed. Are they even in the same league? Plus the music of DCH... pure bliss

DCH is way ahead of ZNMD.

Exactly. ZNMD is rich dudes having fun with some exceptional excerpts. But DCH is so much more realistic and also captures different parts of growing up. Not just - wow Spain is a good place to go on a vacation! As if I didn’t already know that. It’s a bloody ad for tourism.

Wait so DCH is not about rich dudes? Driving a Merc convertible in India in early 2000s!

It absolutely is. Dudes were rich af when I was struggling to buy new shoes for school

Those JAVED AKHTAR VERSES THOUGH !!!

DCH hands down one of the best movies...good direction, acting, fantastic music! Had so much soul and fun!!!!
No comparison...

I quit. I was respectful. Thankfully, every person I have told has been so nice, and I wasn't immediately bounced out by my leadership (which has happened), but I have been surprised by my own bittersweet tears. If they actually cared, why didn't they say so sooner? I gave so much, and I was consumed by this organization. I invested in them, but my investment and dedication were not reciprocated, which is why I ever even entertained leaving. I don't know why it hurts, but it really, really does.
