- Back in architectural college, Raj Malhotra was numero uno in academics, sports, and dramatics and touted by friends as the next cover of Time magazine, but four years after graduating with multiple best-student-of-the-year trophies, he wonders why he - a brilliant architect with designs to set the Canadian landscape on fire - is still struggling to find that one big chance to showcase his mettle. It's as though some negative kismet follows him around, because whenever something good is about to happen, the world kicks in to doom it to failure. Raj meets quirky oracle Haseena Bano Jaan, who tells him his stars will soon change and make everything work in his favor - but for all this to happen, he must first find his lucky charm and never let it go. She says no more, leaving Raj mystified and trying to figure out what this charm could be. Suddenly, upon meeting Priya, his life flips onto the right track. Priya is a tough-talking and decisive girl with a heart of gold. She is an idealist intent upon making the world a better, more humane place (and quite willing to fight a lone battle for it). To keep her, Raj succeeds in persuading pretty Priya that he's the Messiah who can save her beloved yet endangered Community Center from destruction (while also opening her eyes to her philandering fiancé), but will Raj's new found kismet ultimately lead him to the heights of love or to the pinnacle of practicality and career success?—gavin (gunmasterM@hotmail.com)
- This is a story about an architect Raj Malhotra (Shahid Kapoor). While he was a top student in his school and college days, he is not having much luck in finding work, clients or projects. All he does, seems to go wrong. He is late to a critical client meeting because his alarm conks off. When he finally reaches the meeting with his partner Patel, they find out their sponsor, who had promised them an advance just the night before, has died the same night.
Raj meets Priya in a chance accident before his meeting with Mr. Gill, who heads a huge construction empire. Raj loses the deal when Gill's nephew & Raj's college mate Dev turns up who has his own architecture firm. Dev hijacks Raj's meeting & basically pushes him out of the deal. He then mocks Raj to win in real life & not to be just a college hero.
Raj goes to a gypsy named Haseena Bano Jaan (Juhi Chawla). She advises him that his luck is not good, and he needs a lucky charm or a person who can change his life. Afterwards, Raj meets Priya (Vidya Balan), who is ready to help the citizens of a community by trying to save a community center. Although they do not get along at first, Raj eventually realizes that Priya is his lucky charm. In the first meeting itself, Priya flings Raj's business card & it falls in the lap of a dejected country club secy whose architect had deserted him midway. Raj gets the job. At the opening party of the same club, Gill is also there & so is Priya. Priya & Raj again fight. Gill is in a tough spot in a snooker game & trying to impress him, Raj suggests an outrageous shot to Gill. Gill asks Raj to take the shot. Priya comes in just before Raj takes the shot, to mess it up. But incredibly that mess actually ends up making the shot exactly how Raj predicted it. Gill is impressed.
Priya ends up helping Raj through sticky situations and Raj eventually figures out that she is, in fact, changing his life. As per Haseena, Raj has to keep Priya near him. Gill decides to award the shopping mall contract to Raj, but he finds out that Priya is protesting the demolition of a community center that will lead to the creation of the shopping mall.
Knowing this, Raj lies to Priya by telling her that he will help her save the community center. He plays a double game. He shows the complete shopping mall plans to Gill but portrays to Priya that his proposal includes saving the community center too. All the while he tags Priya along to rub off her Kismat Konnection on all his tricky meetings with Gill.
Then Priya decides to get married to her fiance & move to Aus. She disengages with Raj's commitments to Gill. Soon enough, things start going bad for Raj & the project heads towards Dev. Raj consults Haseena who advises him to hold on to Priya at all costs. Raj decides to talk to the fiance to postpone the wedding & finds him having sex with another woman.
When Priya is told, she breaks off the wedding with her fiance & re-engages in Raj's project with Gill. In the very next meeting Raj runs into Gill's wife at his office where Gill's wife is having a fight with Gill for forgetting to take her on vacation. She sees Priya & finds her daughter's resemblance in her, turns soft & forces Gill to help Raj. He also falls in love with Priya and she too falls for him.
However, when Priya finds out the truth about what Raj is trying to do, she becomes very upset and hurt. To make up for his lie, Raj sells everything he has, not caring about his job. He proposes a plan to save the community center and ends up winning Priya's love and admiration.
Basically, Raj has to make a presentation to Gill's board of directors. Priya decides not to attend, but Raj is proposing that the community center stays. Priya is at a fishing spot with a kind of acquaintance whom she calls her waving friend. She pours her heart to him & he advises her to attend Raj's presentation. Gill rejects Raj's proposal, but the waving friend ends up being the founder of Gill's company & he overturns Gill's decision & awards the contract to Raj.
After Priya and Raj finally get together, Raj's life changes and he becomes prosperous.
