She is confused about the marriage right from the word go due to godforsaken reasons. Its baffling to comprehend the first meeting between the protagonists Dev & Maya on the latter's wedding day and the subsequent exchange of words between total strangers. In the midst of all this mayhem, we have the swinging sexagenarian Sam (Big B) who could be the poster boy for Viagra and Dev's endearing mom played by Kirron Kher.
She thinks that she is trapped in a loveless marriage, whereas her hubby still goes ga-ga over her. Maya is a cleanliness freak and doesn't know why she is married to Rishi even after 4 years being together. In another part of New York city, there is marital tension between Rishi (Abhishek), & Maya (Rani) for reasons only known to Karan dude. His ever complaining ways puts his marriage with Rhea (Priety), a successful woman, on the rocks. KANK is the story about Dev (Shahrukh), a footballer whose career dreams are broken along with his leg when he meets with a freak accident, which makes him a recluse. How far does Karan succeed? Lets check it out through the eyes of a neutral, unassuming viewer. This time its the bold subject of infidelity - the sensitive (ahem!) portrayal of seeking love outside a loveless (?) marriage. What we get to witness this time is not the time tested elaborate shaadis, karwa chauths or the big fat Indian family reunions, reminiscent of his and Yash "uncle's" earlier movies. An honest attempt, huh? Its the result that speaks volumes in the age of fast-food and fast-love. KANK is an honest attempt to break away from the mauled of sugary romances by the new age love guru Karan Johar. The result was anything but edible but I humbly gulped it down. One day I tried to experiment some (inspired by the stalls outside my Engineering college) and tried some sugar (caramelized onions anyone?), extra turmeric and some red chilli powder. I make onion poha for breakfast thrice a week, with the bare minimum ingredients possible.
