Storyline
NEW YORK is a contemporary story of friendship set against the larger than life backdrop of a city often described as the centre of the world. Omar (Neil Nitin Mukesh) has gone abroad for the first time in his life and soon enough he begins to see and love America through the eyes of his American friends - Sam (John Abraham) and Maya (Katrina Kaif). It is the story of these three friends discovering a new world together. But one day the world around them changed - For most of us, larger events in the world are just headlines in the newspapers but these events can change our lives - forever. New York is one such story of 3 young friends whose beautiful lives are turned upside down by the larger event of 9/11 beyond their control. At this point enters Agent Roshan (Irrfan), an FBI undercover agent who sets the ball rolling for a series of tumultuous events that turn the lives of these friends into a dangerous and thrilling roller coaster ride. Innocence is lost forever. Written by Official source

Trivia
John Abraham for the first time in his career, appeared fully nude in a Bollywood movie. See more »Goofs
When Sam is playing chess at the University with the Asian guy, the board is shown from the top; there is one chess cube free between the two kings. In the next scene the kings are shown next to each other. That is not possible because both of them would be in check. Plus, Sam is making checkmate by taking the white king with the black king. That is against the rules of chess. See more »Soundtracks

***The following comment contains spoilers*** The movie explores the transformation of Samir Shaikh from an American believer to a American hater. The movie portrayed this transformation decently. The idea of the movie was perfect. The movie would deserve a 10/10 if the following improvements were made. 1)When 9/11 happened, one member of Samir's family should have died during the event, to show that Muslims lost their families too, and to show that everyone was effected. 2)Racism in the streets should have been displayed, ex: People saying terrorist when Samir walks by and things like that. 3)The beginning of the film shows Samir's success a bit, but after college the movie should explore how Samir was going to be really successful after college. Maybe by having him go to a big meeting, then he gets framed by the FBI at the airport. 4)Along with success, the film should show Samir's love with Maya. 5)The man that was interviewed by Maya Shaikh should have talked about the more R rated topics in "terrorist" interrogations, to show the cruelty of the US 6)The planning of the new bombing should have been mentioned more after the intermission, to show Samir's dedication 7)Omar Ehzaz's character is great, but I think if the film show a gradual hatred for the FBI by witnessing Samir, that would be better. 7)The ending was horrible, the whole baseball scene contradicted the whole theme of the movie, that justice is not served. The movie should have ended with Samir and Maya dying, then it fades into Omar Ehzaz's eyes then a quick one frame shot of fire, then darkness. then the facts would appear. This would be better cause it shows the protagonist losing (Samir) and the antagonist winning (Government). This is mix of the films LAW ABIDING CITIZEN and SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE (Style wise)
