Tell me this is NOT what I think it is...


The plot summary talks about "Four people - Tilottima, Salim, Rahul and Rajubhai from four disparate worlds of dissimilar backgrounds... Four people with distinct hopes and diverse motives... Yet their lives are entwined? For fate has randomly selected them to play their assigned roles in one of the most horrific events of recent times?"

the most horrific events of recent times?

Please tell me this is NOT about 9/11. Oh PLEASE tell me it is NOT about that. All we need is another film, starring Indian actors, and talking down about America or seeming to.

"All we need is another film, starring Indian actors, and talking down about America or seeming to."

Which other Indian film did that? And how can you know out of the fact that it is about 11th of September 2001 that it is going to talk down about America (not that it doesn't deserve to be talked down about, but still)?

Dude try to justify your statement.....Don't make stupid statements.
This movie is really a very good movie considering all the other other crap that's coming out of Bollywood.

The movie was far from reality ,there was no flight from India to USA involved in 9 11 tragedy n how can someone loose her boarding pass on airport n u can still get on the plan if a boarding pass is issued to u because u have the ticket n u,r name is already on the passenger list no body is gonna leave u behind ,all n all the climax was crap.

Dude... pls see the movie carefully..its not the plane from India to US that crashes into WTC.. all the characters get off at Boston and are supposed to board the flilght to LA from Boston. And as history knows.. this was the same plane that actually crashed into WTC..

Agreed that the climax does not jsutify thetitle of the movie.. but still an good movie overall even when compared to the general trash that Hollywood is coming up with now-a-days.

and about not being able ot board the flight- it seems u really didnt watch the movie carefully- for it is clearly shown that -raju bhai's watch had stopped- and so he and tillotama das(who was sitting with him) didnt realise the time.her name was being caleld otu and she was directed to soem counter to get a duplicate pass -or some sort of permission to board the plane- but time ran out -that was the reason she could not board the flight. and dude this was an indian housewife on her first trip to usa -not some frequent flying corporate exec- so its obvious she's feel totally lost after misplacing her boarding pass.
and about the title of the movie- i think it meant ot comvey that how very small things change life.like that chewing gum saved tillotama das's life -wat if-similer things would have happened with the others too? or wat if the chewing gum wasn't there- yun hota to kya hota?

one advice - try boarding a plane without a boarding pass & u will answer your question
