The PLOT
“Women are only good for two things…making love and making love” – Vijay Shergill, stuntman.
“All men are dogs” – Simrita Rai, supermodel.
So what happens when Vijay (Akshay Kumar) and Simrita (Kareena Kapoor) cross paths??
The stage is set for the battle of the sexes and some acidic foreplay.
Stark opposites and fiery, the two despite their best efforts, are thrown together. The story zooms in on their squabbles, scathing exchanges and how despite all odds they end up together.
Some action. Some glamour. Some love. And a whole lot of cat fights. That’s Kambakkth Ishq for you.
Story
The movie is set in Hollywood where Viraj Shergill (Akshay Kumar) is a swashbuckling stuntman in Hollywood who believes that women are only good for two things: “making love” & “making love”. Simrita Rai (Kareena Kapoor) is a firebrand who is more than able to stare down the most arrogant male with her caustic wit and sardonic tongue. She firmly believes that there is no such thing as love. So what happens when the two people who hate each other the most meet at Simrita’s best friend Kamini’s (Amrita Arora) and Viraj’s brother Lucky’s (Aftab Shivdasani) wedding? The result is a wedding that both Viraj and Simrita are violently opposed to and desperate to stop. Sparks fly, accidents occur, and both are thrown together in the most absurd, hilarious situation until one dramatic twist of fate binds the two together in a manner that they could have never ever even dreamed of in their wildest fantasies.
Trivia-
It is rumored that Kareena Kapoor tried a whopping sixty pair of shoes for her much-awaited film, Kambakkht Ishq, according to reports.
