Kalki Koechlin: If Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara were made today, it would be about three girls going on a trip
Kalki Koechlin may have played one of Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara's most debated characters, but 15 years later, she believes it is the film’s honesty about relationships and friendships that keeps it relevant. In this conversation, she talks about Natasha’s legacy, imagines a gender-flipped version of the road trip today, reminisces about filming in Spain away from celebrity frenzy, and explains why Zoya Akhtar’s instinct for finding humour in life’s most uncomfortable moments continues to set the film apart.
