Kismat Konnection Hindi Movie Review
An out-of-luck architect and an out-of-love social activist find themselves connected in a strange way by kismat in director Aziz Mirza’s film ‘Kismat
Konnection’.
The movie pairs together Shahid Kapur and Vidya Balan for the first time. In the supporting roles are Juhi Chawla, Om Puri and Vishal Malhotra.
Shahid Kapur as Raj Malhotra
Raj is a brilliant architect who is still grappling to find his first
lucky
break. There seems to be something wrong with his kismat. Perhaps a lucky
charm can change all that.
Vidya Balan as Priya
She is a crusading activist who has always thought about welfare of others. She rarely thinks of what she wants herself. And love and romance is the last
thing on her mind. But all that will change soon.
Juhi Chawla as Haseena Banu Jaan
She is a fortune-teller with a zany sense of talking and dressing. Gifted with clairvoyance and intuitive powers, she talks in riddles while predicting
people’s future and charges 10 dollars from her clients.
Vishal Malhotra as Hiten Patel
He is Raj’s best friend and partner. An architect himself, Hiten is impulsive and eager to rush into situations without thinking things through.
Synopsis
In college Raj Malhotra (Shahid Kapur) was numero uno. He excelled in academics, sports and dramatics. But four years after winning the
best-student-of-the-year trophy from his architectural college, he’s wondering why a brilliant architect like him is still struggling to find that One Big Chance
to showcase his mettle.
It’s almost as though some negative kismat is following him around because whenever something good is about to happen, it seems doomed to fail.
Desperate to fight this cursed kismat, Raj meets a quirky oracle, Hasina Bano Jaan (Juhi Chawla). She tells him that soon his stars will change and make
everything work in his favour. But for all this to happen, Raj has first to find his lucky charm and never let go of it. But she tells him no more, leaving Raj
mystified, trying to figure out what this charm could be.
Then suddenly and almost miraculously Raj’s life is on the right track. He’s managed to impress top builder Sanjeev Gill ( Om Puri ) into giving him a
prestigious project.
Raj succeeds in persuading pretty Priya (Vidya Balan) that he’s the Messiah who can save her beloved Community Center from destruction?
Does this mean that Raj has unwittingly discovered his lucky charm? Has lady luck finally decided to smile on him?
Where will his newfound kismat ultimately lead Raj – to the height of love or pinnacle of success? Only ‘Kismat Konnection’ can tell?
‘Kismat Konnection’ is produced by Ramesh Taurani and directed by Aziz Mirza . The film has music by Pritam . The movie is set to release on July 18.
In college Raj Malhotra (Shahid Kapur) was numero uno. In academics, sports, dramatics and touted as the next cover of Time magazine. But four years
after winning the best-student-of-the-year trophy from his architectural college, he’s wondering why a brilliant architect like him, with designs to set the
Canadian landscape on fire, is still struggling to find that One Big Chance to showcase his mettle.
It’s almost as though some negative kismat is following him around because whenever something good is about to happen, it seems doomed to fail.
Why else would his alarm refuse to ring, his shower stop midway, his car refuse to start, just when he’s in a tearing hurry to reach a crucial meeting on
time?
The end result is the same? The deal is dead or the client is dead!
Desperate to fight this cussed kismat that’s hell bent on playing such mean tricks on him, Raj meets a quirky oracle, Hasina Bano Jaan (Juhi Chawla). She
tells him that soon his stars will change his stars and make everything work in his favour; but for all this to happen, Raj has first to find his lucky charm
and never let go of it. But she tells him no more, leaving Raj mystified, trying to figure out what this charm could be.
Suddenly his life seems to be on the right track. He’s managed to impress top builder Sanjeev Gill (Om Puri), into giving him a prestigious project?
Priya is a tough-talking, tough-decision taking girl with a heart of gold. She is an idealist who is intent on making the world a better, more humane place
and is quite willing to fight a lone battle for it. She is a doer who believes in action. Life for her is clearly colored in blacks and whites. Shades of grey
have no role for her. She will give her all to her causes, her people and her love and expect nothing less in return.
Raj even succeeds in persuading pretty Priya (Vidya Balan) that he’s the Messiah who can save her beloved Community Center from destruction? And
also opened her eyes to her philandering fiancé (Amit Verma).
Raj even manages to thwart the evil designs of old-college-foe-turned-deadly-professional- enemy Dave Kataria (Manoj Bohra)?
Does this mean that Raj has unwittingly discovered his lucky charm? Has lady luck finally decided to smile on him? Where will his new found kismet
ultimately lead Raj? To the height of love or pinnacle of success? Only Kismat Konnection can tell?
