'''''New York''''' is a 2009 Indian [[thriller film]] directed by [[Kabir Khan (director)|Kabir Khan]] and produced by [[Aditya Chopra]] under the banner [[Yash Raj Films]], based on a script by lyricist Sandeep Srivastava and a story by Chopra, with [[Tata Elxsi#Visual Computing Labs .28VCL.29|Visual Computing Labs]], [[Tata Elxsi]] Ltd. handling the visual effects.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://press-releases.techwhack.com/38369-new-york |title=Tata Elxsi creates visual effects for Yash Raj's latest offering 'New York' (Press Release) |access-date=3 July 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716202035/http://press-releases.techwhack.com/38369-new-york/ |archive-date=16 July 2011 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all }}</ref> The film stars [[John Abraham]], [[Katrina Kaif]], [[Neil Nitin Mukesh]], [[Irrfan Khan]] & [[Nawazuddin Siddiqui]], and tells a story about 3 friends studying at the fictional New York State University whose lives are changed by the [[September 11 attacks]] and [[Post-9/11|its aftermath]]. The film received universal critical acclaim, particularly for Kaif and Nitin Mukesh's performances, which earned them nominations for [[Filmfare Award for Best Actress|Best Actress]] and [[Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor|Best Supporting Actor]] respectively at the [[55th Filmfare Awards]]. The film was declared a super-hit at the box office, grossing Rs. 65 crores, which sums to Rs. 114 crores at present day.

== Plot ==
In the United States in 2009, the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] arrest Omar Aijaz, a young Muslim man originally from [[Delhi]], [[India]], after finding guns in the trunk of a taxi cab he owned. Omar is then taken into custody and interrogated by FBI Agent Roshan, also a Muslim man originally from South Asia who has been living in the United States for twenty years. Omar then discovers that he was set up by the FBI to force him to spy on a former college friend, Sameer "Sam" Sheikh, whom he has not seen in seven years and who the FBI believes is a terrorist. In the process, Omar discovers that Sam has married Maya, a mutual friend whom Omar had a crush on in university and finds out that Sam and Maya have a young son, Danyal.

Roshan orders Omar to tell him everything he knows about Sam. The film then flashes back to September 1999, when Omar begins his studies at the New York State University. He is befriended by his [[international student]] counselor Maya and learns that though she was born and raised in New York, she is fluent in [[Hindi]] because of her mother's interest in [[Bollywood]] films. Omar also meets Sam, an [[American Muslim]] who is also fluent in Hindi due to the fact that his father is a professor of Indian studies. Over the next two years, all three become inseparable friends and gradually Omar falls in love with Maya. When Omar realises that she loves Sam, however, he distances himself from them both. Their carefree days end with the onset of the [[September 11 attacks]], or 9/11.

After finishing his story, Omar agrees to help Roshan (rather reluctantly), if only to prove that both he and Sam are innocent. He reunites with Maya and Sam and stays in their house, all the while spying for the FBI. Omar learns that Maya is a civil rights activist who is helping one of Sam's employees, Zilgai overcome his experience as a former [[Guantanamo Bay detention camp|9/11 detainee]]. Zilgai was eventually released due to lack of evidence and has been having difficulty adjusting back to normal life.

As time progresses, Omar feels satisfied that he can find nothing to warrant the FBI's suspicions and is ready to leave when a series of events forces him to reconsider. In the process, Omar learns from Sam that ten days after 9/11, Sam was arrested and detained for a period of nine months as a suspected terrorist, a charge which everyone, including the FBI and Roshan, now agree was incorrect. Though he was eventually released due to lack of evidence, the impact of being detained and tortured permanently changed Sam in ways which are difficult for those surrounding him to understand, leaving him with feelings of deep resentment towards the FBI. Omar thus finds that Sam ultimately resorted to plans for terrorism as a means of revenge.

In addition, Maya is unable to help Zilgai resolve the trauma of being a detainee. After a routine traffic stop escalates and an [[New York City Police Department|NYPD]] police officer gives Maya a very rough full-body search, Zilgai becomes agitated. He drops Maya at her home and eventually kills the police officer the same night. After being declared a fugitive, Zilgai leads the police on a long chase ultimately ending in his suicide.

The climax of the film rests upon the attempts of Maya, Omar, and Roshan to prevent Sam from committing an act of terrorism by telling him that if he perpetuates towards terrorism, others will suffer as he has. Finally convinced, Sam surrenders and aborts his attempt to bomb the FBI building. However, the moment he drops his cell-phone (which was originally intended as a detonator for the bomb) he is shot and killed by FBI snipers. The cell phone falls benign to the ground without activating anything. Maya, who was running toward Sam, is also killed by stray gunfire and Omar, bereft of speech, breaks down.

Six months later, Omar has adopted Danyal, and Roshan has received commendation for aiding in the anti-terrorism cause. Omar is comforted by Roshan who explains to him that everybody was right in their place, but the timing was wrong. As for Sam, the path he chose killed him. Everybody has moved on after 9/11, as it's high time. They reconcile with each other. The film ends with all three of them going out for pasta and a side note describing the [[Post-9/11|after-effects of 9/11]].

==Themes==
''New York'' explores the aftermath of [[September 11 attacks|9/11]]. In a June 2009 interview with the [[Indo-Asian News Service]] (IANS), director [[Kabir Khan (director)|Kabir Khan]] argued that the film "is based on part of the political canvas of 9/11, but it speaks of prejudices after the great human tragedy. It is a definite and very relevant subject about post-9/11 prejudices that have increased after the attacks [...] We have in fact divided time in a pre- and post-9/11 world in the film to highlight its obvious repercussions in times to come. The repercussions of the attacks are still very strongly felt globally and will continue to do so."<ref name=prejudices>{{cite news |last=Bansal |first=Robin |date=13 June 2009

It is a very balanced story and not a jingoistic film."<ref name=prejudices/> In a separate interview with IANS, actor [[John Abraham (actor)|John Abraham]] argued that, "in its own strange way, ''New York'' begins where [[Pakistan]]i film ''[[Khuda Ke Liye]]'' ended. That's the interesting part of the film [...] Each director has his own way of interpreting and researching the plight of legal detainees." Abraham continued by suggesting that this is why Khan and [[Shoaib Mansoor]] offer different interpretations of these events in their respective films. The plot of ''New York'' is similar to <nowiki>''</nowiki>[[The Greater Good (Lost)|The Greater Good]]<nowiki>''</nowiki>, the twenty-first episode of the [[Lost (season 1)|first season]] of [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] TV series ''[[Lost (TV Series)|Lost]]''.<ref name=begins>{{cite news |author=IANS |date=24 June 2009 |title='New York' begins where 'Khuda Kay Liye' ends: John Abraham |newspaper=The Hindu |url=http://www.hindu.com/holnus/009200906241031.htm |access-date=29 June 2009}}</ref> ''New York'' was the first Indian film which focused on this theme, later followed by [[Karan Johar]]'s ''[[Kurbaan (2009 film)|Kurbaan]]'' (2009), and ''[[Vishwaroopam]]'' (2013).

Production began in September 2008 and filming lasted over a period of 100 days.

The film may be about 9/11 and what happens post it, but they did not object to our theme and did not even raise any questions.

''New York'''s opening weekend was highly successful in India and the [[Middle East]]. It also proved popular in Australia and did well in the UK and U.S. Of its opening in India, Khan commented: "I always believed that ''New York'' will be a word-of-mouth film which would open on a decent note and then show an increase in business with every passing day. When I was told by friends and people from industry that it had opened to a housefull response in the very first show at so many places across the country, even I was taken aback."<ref name=surprised>{{cite news |last=Tuteja |first=Joginder |date=1 July 2009 |title=New York's super-success has surprised me" – Kabir Khan |work=Bollywood Hungama |url=http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/features/2009/07/01/5277/index.html |access-date=1 July 2009}}</ref> It became the sixth highest-grossing film of 2009, grossing Rs. {{formatnum:577500000}}.

''New York'' was universally well received by all critics. [[Subhash K.
