Kismet Connection: Too much chance / luck

I was watching Kismet Connection trying to see what would appeal to me. I did not go there expecting anything great, even though I like both Vidya Balan, and Shahid Kapur; however, in the end, if I summarize my view of the movie as something like this - my expectations were met (I did not expect anything great, and there was nothing great). In my view, the movie depended too heavily on the concept of Kismet / chance, and somehow overlook tuning the story to be more clearer. And the sheer wastage of Juhi Chawla in that stupid short role was criminal. Overall rating of the movie from 1-5 (with 5 being very good / excellent), just about touching 2. Yep, not a very good score, but justified. There was just nothing compelling about the story.



The movie was by Aziz Mirza, and you expect the maker of a movie such as 'Yes Boss', 'Chalte Chalte' to make a much more compelling movie, and it starts in a nice manner. You have this guy, Raj Malhotra (I tend to think of Shahrukh Khan when I hear such a name) all young and dashing, struggling to make it good. He is a top architect from a good college, but is not able to make good for himself. And then he runs into this girl, Priya, who causes him more trouble; to the extent that they taunt each other when they meet again. He is bidding for a big contract from Sanjeev Gill (Om Puri, in a good mostly comic role along withe more comedy from his wife), but does not seem likely to get the contract.
And then he runs into this fortune-teller, Haseena Bano (a ghastly role by Juhi Chawla). Juhi plays as bubbly as ever, but somehow this role does not fit. She tells him that he needs a lucky charm, and it is around the corner, and he suddenly realizes that another confrontation with Priya actually saved him from getting painted, and that maybe she is his lucky charm. She is passionate about saving an old age place from the clutches of a property developer, which incidentally is the same one that Shahid is looking to get the contract for.
He wants on her his side, and manages to trick her into believing that he is on her side, so that she is with him when he has to do the contract negotiations. And you know what will happen after this - he will repent, she will get angry over his trickery, and then everything will be happy at the end. In the end, however, he is not able to win by himself, and needs the unexpected support of somebody else to get the situation to his side.
The movie was produced by Ramesh S Taurani, and was written by Sanjay Chel. The music was by Pritam. The narrator of the movie was by Shahrukh Khan (after all, Aziz Khan was a co-partner with him in a movie production company). The songs were the saving grace for the movie.

Wanna show you why we are to be two
And wanna make you part of all that I do

Without you girl my heart rather die

Ho Dhadkan badh gayi, badh gayi,
Ho saasen chadh gayi, chadh gayi,
Hassen ek ladki se,
Meri aaj nazar jo lad gayi..
[Sade naal kar le party,
Kudiye te lagdi hai naughty,
Feeki feeki raat ho gayi]-2

[Girls can go crazy,
Boys can go crazy,
Tu bhi nachle baby,
Lets get now]-2
Bina dekhe kabhi mujhko pukare,
Karta hai mujhe chup chup ke ishare,
Arey dekhe kabhi kisi ke bahane se,
Koshisein bhi maine kar dekhi saari,
Is ladke se aaj haari mein to haari,
Isne to naa sikha darna zamane se,

Tu kis uljhan mein pad gayi,
Yeh kaisi baatein kar gayi tu,
Mohabbat kya wo mohabbat,
Jo duniya se dar gayi..
Sade naal kar le party,
Kudiye te lagdi hai naughty,
Feeki feeki raat ho gayi
Common sing along with me now,
Sade naal kar le party,
Kudiye te lagdi hai naughty,
Feeki feeki raat ho gayi

N tell my love story
Wud you do anything for me
Lagta hai mujhko tu chore
Because u stole my heart from me
Jaba jaba touch me slowly
Jaba jaba, put your hands on me
Jaba jaba just get closer
Jaba jaba chori chori

Khud se hi baaten karne lagi hu,
Teri hi khayalon se mein badhne lagi hu,
Anjaana ek dard hai seene mein,
Hoo hoo..
Jaane kaise kaise khwaab sajaun,
Jab jab kabhi tere paas mein aau,
Ab kuch naya khaas hai jeene mein,
Oh yeah…

Mohabbat mein tu pad gayi,
Tu ishq ki suli chad gayi,
Tere iqraar ko sun ke,
Khushi se aankhen bhar gayi..
Sade naal kar le party,
Kudiye te lagdi hai naughty,
Feeki feeki raat ho gayi
Common sing along with me now,
Sade naal kar le party,
Kudiye te lagdi hai naughty,
Feeki feeki raat ho gayi

Move your body now,
Shake your body now,
Balkha ke lehra ke,
Hit your body now,
Tujhe seene se mein apne laga lu,
Tujhe bahon mein chupa lu,
Come on closer to my body now..

Kahin Na Laage (Is this love)

Kissa tera, teri daastan,
Chehra tera khud kare bayan,
Kisi se pyaar tujhe ho gaya,
Tu maan jaa,
Haan maan jaa…

Kahin naa laage mann,
Kya hai yeh sunapan,
Ahaa..ahaaa..
Mujhe tum bata do,
Koi to wajah do,
Ahaa…ahaaa..
Har ghadi ab khayalon mein,
Keh raha hai koi,
Har ghadi mere khwabon mein,
Aa raha hai koi..
Is this love?
Maine naa jaana
Ahhaa..
Is this love?
Tu hi bata naa
Ahhaa..

Tune chuna ishq ka raasta,
Hum safar iss safar mein dudhta hai tu,
Haan baat yeh maan bhi le zara,
Tut kar ab kisi ko chahta hai tu,
Raat din meri needon mein,
Jag raha hai kio
Raat din meri aankhon mein,
Bass raha hai koi
Is this love?
Maine naa jaana..
Ahhaa..
Is this love?
Tu hi bata naa
Ahhaa..

I need you,
You need me,
You are with me
Is this feeling of love?
Inside our hearts..

Tune tera dil kisi ko diya,
Baat yeh sach hai gar tu maan le isse,
Dil ka sukun tune hi kho diya,
Ab haqeeqat hai yeh tu jaane le isse,
Aajkal meri chahon mein,
Dhal raha hai koi,
Aajkal meri saason mein,
Chal raha hai koi..
Is this love?
Maine naa jaana..
Ahhaa..
Is this love?
Tu hi bata naa
Ahhaa..

Kahi naa lage mann,
Kya hai yeh sunapan,
Ahaa..ahaaa..

Har ghadi ab khayalon mein,
Keh raha hai koi,
Har ghadi mere khwabon mein,
Aa raha hai koi..
Is this love?
Maine naa jaana
Ahhaa..
Is this love?
Tu hi bata naa
Ahhaa..
