Don't we often make life's choices considering the interest of all our dear ones and our family? What if life's incidents reverse and overweigh us with joys and throw disappointments at us? We attempt to bounce back in life optimistically, don't we? Or sometimes, these incidents themselves turn into a serendipity. Set across a city in South India and a Middle Eastern state, a story that traverses from early 2000 to the current times, Kismet is a multitude of experiences in the life of Akash. Akash Shetty loves his family dearly and lives up (happily) to their expectations. Why did his sibling devastate his family? What does it do with Akash's choices? Akash lands in the Middle East for a short term. He has many life-changing experiences and faces an incident that leaves him emotionally devastated. Can he turn it into a serendipity? Kismet is a story of love/hate, culture, life's philosophies, and humanity that challenge one's perceptions towards life. Somewhere lives an Akash in many of us... and reminds us that Kismet or Destiny can be (turned into) a stroke of serendipity.
