'''''Dil Dosti Etc.''''' ({{Lang-en|Heart, Friendship, et cetera|italic=yes}}) is a 2007 Indian [[coming-of-age story|coming-of-age]] film starring [[Shreyas Talpade]], [[Imaad Shah]], [[Nikita Anand]], [[Smriti Mishra]], [[Ishita Sharma]] and Dinesh Kumar in lead roles. It is directed by [[Manish Tiwary]] and produced by [[Prakash Jha]]. The movie got mixed reviews on its release and was successful in multiplex theatres in Delhi and some parts of Mumbai.<br />
<br />
== Synopsis ==<br />
Dil Dosti Etc. explores the ambiguities of the youth years. The movie is about coming of age of Apurv ([[Imaad Shah]]), a rich, aimless and cynical 18-year-old young man, who has just entered college in Delhi. Juxtaposed against the aimlessness of Apurv is also the story of Sanjay Mishra ([[Shreyas Talpade]]), an ambitious Bihari student & politician with limited means. They represent two divergent world views—the liberal versus the conservative, the no-strings attached versus the committed, the elite versus the middle-class. Directionless and laidback, Apurv searches for meaning in life through amorous escapades with different girls, including a sex-worker Vaishali ([[Smriti Mishra]]) and a school girl Kintu ([[Ishita Sharma]]). Meanwhile, Sanjay works single-mindedly to win the college Presidential elections, and yet catches the attention of a rich model Prerna ([[Nikita Anand]]). Dil Dosti Etc. is woven together with an ensemble of other characters, who have their own stories to tell. Set against all these is a silly wager that the two protagonists engage in. Sanjay will win the elections and Apurv will manage to have sex with three women in a day. As the film moves towards a volatile climax, you get to test the film's premise, when you're young, you believe the possibilities are endless.<br />

But wait patiently, and the mood will catch up".<ref>http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/movie-reviews/hindi/Dil-Dosti-Etc/movie-review/2412871.cms</ref><br />
