But, after completing his studies in architecture after four years, and winning the trophy of the best architect, Raj is still struggling hard to get his Kismat (luck). He is not getting the much needed job opportunities in life to make him win as luck is not in his favour.
Whatever Raj tries to do, ends up the other way round. Everything gets misplaced and misshaped, for which Raj has no answer. He is not able to get any opportunity to prove his skills in architecture. His plans and schedules get disrupted as sometimes like shower stops, car won’t start etc.
One lucky day, Raj bumps into Hasina Bano Jaan (Juhi Chawla), who predicts his future and once he meets his lucky charm, everything will be sorted out and luck would favour him. The search starts and one fine day Raj finds his life back on track as problems gets sorted out easily after he finds the lucky charm.

Vidya Balan plays the role of Priya, who is a hard working girl and believes in doing things that would make the world a better place to live. She is an idealist who sees life in black and white. Shades of grey have no place in her life. She believes in giving everything for her people and her love without expecting anything in return.
Raj manages to win her heart and also opens her eyes to her philandering fiancée, which is played by Amit Verma. Thus, unwittingly, Raj discovers his lucky charm in Priya. This is the first time that Shahid and Balan would be seen together on-screen. The pair has already raised curiosity in the film circuit, which may help the movie get a good opening.
