Thinking about what happens in this film? Together, Neil, Imaad, and Ahana have a charming friendship that is at the heart of the story. They worked so well with the moments and just enough so as not to pull too much attention away from the story itself.
AND this comes at such a great time.
All hearts :)

Loved the film
Arjun Varain Singh's directorial venture 'Kho Gaye Hum Kahan' is a testament to his skill and vision, beautifully encapsulating the essence of relationships in the digital era.
And Neil creates a fake account to troll the people who he feels have wronged him.
Arjun Varain Singh’s Kho Gaye Hum Kahan — based on a script he’s written with Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti — is a sharply observed, smartly directed and nicely paced film with some fabulous performances.
For a while in the middle, the film feels like a Gen Z sequel to Farhan Akhtar’s Dil Chahta Hai.
The film supporting actors will look like equally important as Ananya, Siddhant and Adarsh, all of them has given such a wonderful performance and offers a deep dive into how social media shapes our perceptions and interactions. It’s less filmy and tuned into the lives of Gen Z, which are built on faking swag and pretending to be cool with dispensable relationships, dispensable friends, dispensable jobs, apartments, often at the expense of their real feelings and happiness.
The film gives us a peek into their deep insecurity and loneliness, but doesn’t go beyond peeling the top thin layer.

Every generation carries an albatross around its neck.
For my parents’ generation, it was ‘responsibility’.
They lean on each other as they navigate complexities of relationships and self-discovery.Ahana, Neil and Imaad are three friends in their 20s trying to find meaning in the digital age.
The release date of the movie is December 26th, 2023. He dreams of owning a gym, having some celebrity clients and making his relationship public.
Imaad is a stand-up comedian who prefers Tinder hook-ups to any real commitment. Right from the 3 leads to the supporting actors, everyone was woven perfectly into the fabric of this story.
It's the kind of movie that holds your hand and walks across a sunset beach.
The film addresses influencer culture, identity, and the quest for connection. The character has a roller-coaster arc which is well justified by his talent.
Have been a fan of Siddhant Chaturvedi since Gully Boy and this feels no different - the guy delivers a wonderful performance, especially the dialogue towards the end that shows his prowess as an actor.
Ananya Pandey, usually bubbly, is a charm on screen and portrays her character pretty well, which is a difficult mix of displaying insecurity yet be confident.
He avoids second dates and during his therapy sessions too he jokes instead of communicating his feelings.
All is going reasonably well, so they all decide to join forces and invest in Neil’s dream. Yet the film is moving, engaging and entertaining because of the performances.
Ananya Pandey is superb.
Even as parents, we worked hard to be different, better than them.
The albatross that Generation Z carries around is split into two — one part is loneliness, the other is insecurity.
Director Arjun Varain Singh’s Kho Gaye Hum Kahan tells the story of young, city-bred men and women who are cool, seemingly with it, but who deal with troubles in their real life by seeking validation for the simulated, perfect characters they have created for themselves online.
They think they’ll make it if they fake it.
Kho Gaye Hum Kahan is about three close friends — Ahana Singh (Ananya Pandey), Imaad Ali (Siddhant Chaturvedi) and Neil Pereira (Adarsh Gourav).
Social Media today works on 3 I's - Instant, Insecurity and I (Narcissism) and the film captures all the 3 themes pretty well.
Strong performances and refreshing tale of modern friendship is well captured after Dil Chahta Hai and ZNMD. He has an ambiguous smile and personality, making it difficult to know what he is thinking.
The secularism in their names is nice but is irrelevant to their lives or the film.
Ahana, an MBA, works in an office and is in a romantic relationship with Rohan (Rohan Gurbaxani).
Neil is a gym trainer who is in a secret relationship with an influencer. And as soon as they were done, they had their own families to take care of.
For my generation, the albatross was ‘identity’, which we had to create by being different from our parents. So we broke away from their expectations to achieve success in the few traditional vocations we knew.
