What happens

Kambakkht Ishq (originally released in the United States as Incredible Love) is a 2009 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Sabbir Khan and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. The film is based on the 2002 Tamil film Pammal K. Sambandam which in turn was based on the 1999 film The Bachelor. The film stars Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor in the lead roles, alongside Aftab Shivdasani, Amrita Arora, Jaaved Jaafrey and Kirron Kher in supporting roles. Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards, Brandon Routh, Whoopi Goldberg, and Holly Valance appear as themselves in cameos. Initially scheduled to release in December 2008, the film was postponed due to extensive production work and was released on 3 July 2009. It was a moderate success at the box-office. A mobile video game based on the film was released by ASTPL. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
