The story revolves around three friends- Hrithik Roshan(Arjun), Farhan Akhtar (Imraan) and Abhay Deol. (Kabir). Kabir, gets engaged to Natasha (Kalki), whom he met six years ago. He, along with his other two buddies, make a pact to go on a three week road trip to Spain, which is also his extended bachelor's party. The road trip is based on a deal that each one gets to try out the ultimate sport of their choice and the other two friends have to give company to the individual taking his chance. While Arjun is a workaholic, he agrees to the plan after a lot of persistence and cajoling by the other two. The trio meet at Barcelona and set off for the adventure. Here, Arjun’s chance encounter with Laila (Katrina Kaif) changes the course of their lives. The road trip helps them mend their differences and also face their fears, for the better. 

The story, which is about three bachelors, has been woven beautifully and is very well presented. The first half may seem to lack some punch, for they are just seen travelling all around, playfully. While on the trip, the past differences of Arjun and Imrann crop up once again.  The scene, where Imraan meets his dad Salman, has been shot beautifully, for it showcases the intensity of the father- son duo, who meets for the first time in nearly two decades.  'La Tomatina,' which is one the most famous festivals of Spain, has been re-created perfectly for the song ‘Ik Junoon’ and it surely flows with the story.Though, 'ZNMD' is a multi starrer, each character comes out neat and clear. The principal part of the film, has been shot at Barcelona, Pamplona,

Bunyol, Andalucia in Spain, Egypt and in Mumbai. All the three adventure sports showcased in the flick, whether it's sky diving, scuba diving or the bullfighting have been shot in a lovely fashion.

The movie ends with a Bull Run scene, which makes way for their next pact, solving unresolved conflicts. Poetic lines in the background, by Farhan Akhtar, touch you right there.

Zoya Ahktar, sitting in the director’s chair, does a good job yet again. Zoya has played with the theme of living every moment of life to the fullest and takes one into the world of adventure. The movie has been made with a touch of sensitivity and the road trip is bound to transport you to Spain.With loads of emotional drama, thrills and of course romance, the characters seem to come alive.

Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti share the credits for the story and the screenplay and they've done a brilliant job. The dialogues are quirky and have a punch in them. Carlos Catalan is the director of photography and he too, has done an extremely good job,especially when it comes to shooting the underwater scenes.  The songs of 'ZNMD,' which have been created by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and penned by Javed Akhtar, are quite appealing. 'Senorita,' which features Abhay, Hrithik and Farhan Akhtar, crooning away to glory, is the USP of the album.

Farhan's dialogues like ‘Darr Ke Aage Jeet Ha’ and ‘Shit Happens,’ would remind you of a famous aerated drink brand, not that you would mind that!
