Paddy Raghunathan First Kismat Konnection is what it sounds like: a movie about kismat and chance.Most reviews on this site criticize this movie on two grounds. The first being that Jab We Met was better, and second being that the movie is all over the place.In general, they are right. That doesn't mean the movie is badly made. Nor does it mean the movie is not entertaining. It is not a great movie, but certainly one that has the ability to stay in your minds for a while.I am glad I did not read the criticisms on this site. I am glad I saw it and enjoyed it thoroughly, and I hope that folks who read my review are actually encouraged into watching this movie.Since I don't really care for SRK's acting, I don't go by the comments that SRK would have done better justice to the role of Raj Malhotra. Shahid Kapoor has done a fine job. His ability to get into a character is in full evidence.To put a long story short, Vidya Balan's Priya is Raj's lucky charm, and the narration builds it up in the first quarter very well. The second quarter is Raj finding himself falling in love with Priya. The third quarter is about Raj getting the kabab mein haddi out of the way, and the fourth is when he must convince Priya that he loves her more than his Kismat. The denouement is superb, where we find Raj getting Priya, and his new found Kismat remains intact. In fact, Priya's realization that she is very important to Raj's cause, gives her a new meaning to her life.Where is the script weak? When Priya tells Raj, "Thee na main tumhaare saath. Hone dete jo hota." The truth is she wasn't really with Raj all the way at the time. Getting rid of the Kabab mein haddi, Priya's love interest, is not all that well done. Those are aspects when you feel the film is a bit all over the place.When is the script at its strongest? When Priya gets in the way of Raj on his important billiard's shot, no doubt. Vishal Malhotra, as Hiten and Raj's faithful sidekick is simply outstanding. Om Puri is great, and so is Ms Shivpuri. Give this movie a try: you will not be disappointed.

josh_baba This Saturday night I got to see this movie, and I am very thankful to the new love birds of bollywood, Shahid kapoor and Vidya balan that they have made it. Both have shown that they really have some nice chemistry not only behind the screen but also on the screen. Movie start with "kismat" and ends with the same. The best part of movie is that it raises a nice cause besides the entertainment, it has a really nice massage for all the businessman and even common people. Songs are really nice too. I thoroughly enjoy the movie. There are some scenes in the movie with Juhie Chawala that I don't like very much, but overall this movie has blossomed very nicely. Shahid kapoor is once again a true nice innocent guy in the movie. You will worth your money as well time, specially when seen with your girlfriend, you would get certain credit. In the end I will give a 9 to this movie because of comedy, charm, entertainment and a real good massage delivered in the movie.

SurpriseIIIIIIIme Yes... by far the freshest couple to hit the screen in recent times... different...yet fresh.... initial chemistry does exist...whether its shahid's boyish charms, or vidya's believable eyes..... whatever it may be.... but it has the signs of a new sparkling chemistry....my family seems to disagree with me.... but i am convinced that this pair can hold good for some time..... the story works.... struggling fresher... needs a little luck... meets a girls by chance... who seems to be getting the luck he needs........ """lucky lips... are always kissing""""...well, no kiss in this one, but their eyes say enough...8/10...

pratyush_panda85 One of the most boring and torturing movies of the decade. If you want to waste your money and time, go watch it. The movie hardly connects with the viewers.There is hardly any chemistry between Shahid and Vidya. In fact Shahid looked like a kid in presence of Vidya.The whole movie could be predicted from very beginning. And there was nothing fresh or new in this movie. The humor was far from comic.And you would feel like crying. Only thing good in the movie was the costumes of Shahid and the shooting location i.e Canada. Other than these there was nothing in this movie worth watching.
