[3][4] Kismat is a saga spread over sixty years that takes us through the lives of two men— Adityaraj Merchant and Kabir Khan, who share a strange karmic bond imposed by destiny.

Born on the same historic day of 15 August 1947, life takes them both through diverse experiences each on different paths, that ultimately define the course of their lives and their character as men.

Kabir Khan, on the other hand born to Muslim parents, miraculously finds refuge in a Hindu family's house in a downtrodden village near Hyderabad.

Facing adversities at a very early age, Kabir has to soon fend for himself and deal with every possible misfortune that life throws at him.

A twist of fate, an unfortunate turn of events, coincidence, Kismat—all conspire to make this conflict grow bigger with each passing year until this tug of war between Aditya Merchant and Kabir Khan, for revenge, power and prestige eventually becomes their sole reason for existence.
