Aziz Mirza last directed a film in 2003 when he made the Shah Rukh Khan, Rani Mukherjee starrer Chalte Chalte. Then fate took dealt him a cruel and the director went into hibernation following the death of his wife. But now, five years down the line, the director is back with his next film Kismat Konnection.
It is kismat really how this, his comeback film, has both his children, son Haroon and daughter Rahila, making their mark in the film world. Haroon is co director while Rahila is the brains behind the project. There is just one kismat connection which bears talking about. That is the bond between SRK and Mirza. The duo have known each other since the actor's television days. The connection slipped into films and the two of them did quite a few films together. But Mirza's comeback film has no role for SRK. Shahid's role is what SRK would have done 15 years ago. But the bond has not broken. Mirza is sure that the moment he makes a film starring SRK, it will be under the Dreamz Unlimited banner, one which was launched by SRK, Mirza and Juhi Chawla. Till then, he is testing his kismat once again, with a connection that features Vidya Balan and Shahid. Will these two be able to recreate the magic of Juhi and SRK is what remains to be seen.
