"We can't compare JWM and Kismat Konnection" - Vidya Balan
Q.
How
should
you
like
to
categorise
Kismat
Konnection?
A.
Kismat
Konnection
is
the
film
about
two
persons
who
have
no
idea
that
they
should
become
friends.
Whenever
they
meet,
they
get
into
fight
with
one
or
the
other
reason.
But
kismet
had
designed
something
else
for
them.
And
in
some
way
they
forget
about
all
the
fights
and
fall
for
each
other.
Actually
it's
very
simple
a
story
but
the
freshness
is
quite
unique
to
make
it
look
different.
Q.
What
about
your
character
in
the
film?
A.
The
name
of
my
character
in
the
film
is
Priya
who
is
very
positive
in
every
aspect.
The
backdrop
of
the
film
is
Toronto.
Raj
(Shahid
Kapoor)
loses
interest
on
everything
in
his
life
but
after
meeting
Priya
he
gains
his
positive
approach
towards
life
back.
The
best
thing
that
my
character
has
in
this
film
is
the
love
towards
her
life.
Q.
How
much
does
Vidya
Balan
believe
in
kismet?
A.
Vidya
believes
in
fate.
I
believe
that
whichever
way
and
how
much
hard
we
may
try
but
the
last
decision
is
always
taken
by
our
kismet.
You
may
have
come
to
meet
me
on
behalf
of
your
publication
but
believe
me,
if
we
would
never
have
met
if
we
were
not
fated
to
meet.
Q.
The
film
looks
very
young
and
fresh.
If
watched
closely,
we
can
find
that
the
film
has
some
resemblance
with
Jab
We
Met.
What
do
you
say
about
that?
A.
I
think
we
cannot
compare
between
Jab
We
Met
and
Kismat
Konnection,
albeit
those
films
were
made
at
the
same
time.
Kismat
Konnection
was
at
the
post
production
stage
while
Jab
We
Met
was
released.
Maybe
you
have
enjoyed
that
film
the
same
as
you
will
do
with
Kismat
Konnection.
Q.
Don't
you
think
that
your
character
does
match
with
that
of
Kareena
in
Jab
We
Met?
They
both
inject
Shahid
with
positive
approach
in
life...
A.
You
may
have
found
similarities
in
our
characters
but
I
have
played
it
quite
in
a
different
way.
Priya
is
much
different
from
Geet
and
they
cannot
be
compared.
Q.
Does
the
film
carry
the
Aziz
Mirza
sign
like
his
other
films?
A.
Yes,
of
course.
Aziz
uncle
is
such
a
director
who
prefers
to
show
the
mass-feelings
in
any
of
films.
The
story
may
have
the
backdrop
of
Toronto,
the
film
has
very
common
and
general
appeal.
He
is
unique
in
making
the
characters
as
well
as
the
situations
as
simple
as
possible.
He
prefers
to
feel
the
characters
on
acting
them.
Q.
How
was
the
experience
of
working
with
him?
A.
Every
director
has
his
own
way
of
executing
things
but
Aziz
uncle
is
quite
unique
in
his
own
ways.
One
can
find
him
happy
all
the
while.
No
one
screams
or
create
chaos
on
the
set
just
because
of
his
nature.
And
you
can
find
the
impression
of
his
nature
in
his
films
also.
We
spent
two
months
in
Toronto
without
even
feeling
for
a
holiday.
Q.
We
have
heard
that
you
faced
problems
getting
in
tune
with
Shahid
during
the
shooting
of
a
dance.
A.
It's
not
me
only
but
any
other
heroine
in
the
industry
would
have
problem
dancing
with
Hrithik
and
Shahid.
Madhuri
Dixit
is
a
different
name
(laughs).
I
didn't
have
time
to
rehearse
before
this
dance.
Then
I
talked
to
my
dance
director
Ahmed
about
my
problem
and
he
asked
me
not
to
get
tensed.
And
he
really
controlled
everything
for
me.
Shahid
can
do
anything
regarding
dance
within
half
a
minute
but
you
cannot
blame
me
for
the
rest
of
the
scenario.
Q.
Juhi
Chawla
is
also
acting
in
the
film.
How
was
the
experience
of
working
with
her?
A.
Though
unfortunately
but
I
have
no
scene
with
her.
But
my
father
is
quite
happy
because
I
have
worked
in
the
film
where
Juhi
is
also
working.
He
is
a
big
fan
of
Juhi
Chawla.
Q.
Shahid
and
your
names
together
are
hitting
the
media
every
other
day.
What
would
you
like
to
say
about
this
connection?
A.
To
be
very
frank
we
have
nothing
of
that
sort
between
us.
He
is
a
good
friend
and
a
very
good
co-star
of
mine.
That's
all.
And
the
rest
is
just
a
gimmick.
Q.
Since
the
time
of
Parineeta,
your
name
is
getting
attached
with
every
of
your
co-stars.
Don't
you
think
of
it
as
your
great
chemistry?
A.
I
would
like
to
accept
it
as
my
compliment.
I
think
that
I
am
such
a
decent
actress
that
my
chemistry
works
with
almost
al
the
stars.
I
would
like
to
give
all
the
credits
to
my
directors.
I
like
to
talk
to
others
and
of
course
I
love
to
know
about
others
on
the
set.
Q.
Please
tell
us
about
our
forthcoming
films.
A.
I
am
busy
doing
a
Sanjay
Leela
Bhanshali
film
named
Chenav
Gandhi.
Bibhu
Puri
is
assisting
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
in
this
film.
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Harman
Baweja
are
my
co-stars
in
this
film.
Besides
this
I
am
doing
Vishal
Bhardwaj's
Ishqiya
which
will
be
directed
by
Abhishek
Chaubey.
Nasheerudin
Shah
and
Arshad
Warsi
are
acting
with
me
in
this
film.
Q.
What
did
happen
to
your
other
films
like
Suryamukhi,
Bihad
and
Mukti?
A.
I
have
denied
acting
in
Suryamukhi
and
same
is
the
fate
with
Bengali
film
Mukti.
I
am
not
working
in
that
film
as
its
shoot
was
scheduled
to
start
in
early
January
but
due
to
producer
Gautam
Haldar's
health
problems
it
got
delayed.
Later
on
they
offered
me
some
other
time
but
I
couldn't
accept
that.
Schedule
for
the
Sanjay
Dutt
movie
Bihad,
which
is
subjected
to
be
directed
by
Milan
Lutharia,
is
not
decided
yet
as
because
Sanjay
Dutt
is
busy
with
his
other
films.
I
hope
the
film
will
be
complete
within
next
year.
