The love story which centres around Raj Malhotra (Shahid), a street smart charming guy but despite his best efforts success eludes him. Raj's luck changes when he meets an enigmatic fortune-teller Juhi who assures him that he is about to get lucky with a new chance.

Deviating from his signature pair of Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla, Aziz Mirza has roped in current bollywood heartthrob Shahid Kapur and Vidya Balan. The director hopes that Vidya and Shahid will make it to the list of successful Bollywood reel-couple.

When asked whether the super success of 'Jab We Met' made him decide on Shahid, Mirza said, "It is not after the success of 'Jab We Met' that I signed him for my movie. I was already impressed with Shahid's performance in his debut movie, 'Ishq Vishq' and had signed him even before 'Jab We Met'," he said.

The director, however, wanted a different fresh pair and that's what made him sign Vidya Balan as her girl-next-door image suited well for the film's character.

"I wanted my film with an entire new pair which is both young and fresh and that's why Vidya Balan was signed for the film and she has done a wonderful job, " says Mirza.

Veteran director Aziz Mirza believes in Shahid's potential to justify the character of a perplexed young man in 'Kismat Konnection'.
