Plot[edit]
Shiv Kakkar(Sushant Singh Rajput) is a young man from Amritsar who gets a lucrative opportunity to work in Budapest for a job as a banker, and leaves with his friend, Radha(Varun Sharma). Shiv is shown to have been a fun-loving womanizer back home and continues this behaviour in Budapest. Saira Singh(Kriti Sanon), a young woman, is haunted by mysterious nightmares of drowning to death. She lives by herself in Budapest and works as a chocolatier. Shiv happens to stumble upon Saira's shop while on a date with a woman, but finds himself deeply attracted to Saira. Though she initially rejects his advances, she eventually succumbs and sleeps with Shiv, revealing the next day that she actually has a boyfriend and what happened with Shiv was a mistake. Unwilling to let go of their connection, Shiv interrupts Saira's date with her boyfriend Manav(Vikas Verma) and shows her that she would rather be with him than with her boyfriend. Manav breaks up with her, and Shiv and Saira start spending time together, growing close. One night, they go to a club with Radha, where they happen to meet an eccentric psychic who knows about Saira's nightmares and tells her that the events of her previous life will repeat themselves, and only she can fix them. Saira tearfully reveals to Shiv that she has a fear of water because her parents drowned after a car accident when she was two years old.
While trying to test their love a final time, Shiv and Saira make a pact. Shiv flirts with multiple women, but Saira finds herself strongly drawn to a young businessman Zakir 'Zack' Merchant(Jim Sarbh). Shiv reveals he has to leave for a business trip for a week and he and Saira decide to see how they feel after a week's separation. If they still feel strongly about each other, they will start considering marriage. During Shiv's absence, Saira gets to know Zakir better and confides in him about her nightmares. During one of their dinners, Zakir drugs Saira and kidnaps her.
Saira wakes up and finds herself trapped in Zakir's isolated mansion on an island off the coast. She demands that he let her go, but he refuses, saying that he spent his whole life looking for her. He explains that he was madly in love with her in a previous life but his love remained unrequited. He refuses to let go of her again. When she does not believe him, he shows her a collection of uncannily accurate paintings he made of her at various ages and says she will find the explanation for her nightmares. Thinking he is crazy, she attempts to escape but ends up falling into the ocean, which triggers the memories of her previous life.
Three hundred years ago, Saira was warrior princess Saiba. She had a childhood best friend Qaabir(Jim Sarbh), a fellow warrior from her tribe who was in love with her. Their kingdom was threatened by the Muraakis, led by a wise, old Rajput ruler Mohak(Rajkummar Rao). Qaabir is severely wounded by the fierce warrior Jilaan(Sushant Singh Rajput), who gives Qaabir an ultimatum to surrender. Saiba challenges Jilaan, and they find themselves attracted to each other. Saiba accepts defeat, surrendering the kingdom to the Muraakis and herself to Jilaan. Qaabir attempts to take Saiba back, but she reveals that she and Jilaan are in love. On their wedding night, a comet falls and Mohak realizes that this will be a fateful night. Qaabir ambushes Jilaan and Saiba, and murders Jilaan by wounding him and throws him in the ocean. Saiba jumps into the ocean to save him, but to no avail. Heartbroken on seeing Jilaan die, Saiba who is heartbroken decides to drown too. On seeing Saiba dead, Qaabir slits his own throat, killing himself. Muwwaqqil forebodes that these events will repeat.
However, this time, when Shiv shows up, Saira decides to fight back against Zakir. When their previous lives' events repeat, Zakir throwing Shiv into the ocean, Shiv drags Zakir down with him and Zakir dies. Saira jumps into the water and is able to save Shiv.
The film ends with Shiv humorously telling their children to not believe Saira if she tells them any far-fetched stories about reincarnation, implying that he is still oblivious to the events of their previous lives.

The film production began in 2015 and it was set to release in 2016. But the film was delayed for a year due to casting issues. In March 2016, a new release date of 9 June 2017 was announced.[3] The film has been majorly shot in Budapest, Hungary and India. Title song Raabta was shot at Tata Castle in Tata, Hungary. The song Sadda Move was shot at Partition Museum, Amritsar.[4] Budget of the film is â¹59.07 Crores (â¹590.7 Million).[5] The total number of screen count in India was 1820 and 330 overseas.[6]
Casting[edit]
Alia Bhatt was initially considered to play the lead role opposite Sushant Singh Rajput, but turned down the role over scheduling conflicts.[7] In December 2015, Asin was approached to play the lead role opposite Rajput but she turned down the offer because of her decision to not act post marriage. Kriti Sanon was signed on to play the lead female role in the film in February 2016.[8]
Controversy[edit]
Raabta makers received a legal notice over plagiarism from MagadheeraproducerAllu Aravind. Raabta producers offered to show Arvind the film. They also offered to deposit an escrow amount with the court, but Arvind reportedly rejected both.[9] A source says it was likely Arvind wanted Magadheera to be remade in Hindi, and was concerned no one would be interested after Raabta.[citation needed] On 8 June 2017, the courts ruled in favor of Raabta makers.[citation needed]
Critical reception[edit]
Bollywood Hungama rated it 3.5/5.[10]The Times of India rated it 3.5/5, writing 'If sparks flew more organically, it would have been easier to make a connection with this epic tale of love.'[11]Koimoi rated it 2/5, writing 'Raabta is a confused film that never establishes a firm balance between its crossover love stories.' Shubhra Gupta from The Indian Express rated it 1.5/5, writing 'Some questions arise after Raabta has been seen, chief amongst which is one that comes up every time Bollywood tries, and fails, to do a cracking romance. Why is Bollywood incapable of pulling off a full-length film with a pair of lovers connecting, pulling apart, coming together?'[12]India Today rated it 1/5, calling it 'A comet-crossed romance which never hits the target.'[13]
Critic Rajeev Masand gave the movie one out of five, stating, 'This is a movie so singularly pointless, you have to wonder how the writers and the director tricked the financiers into thinking there was a story here worth telling, and why the actors preferred going to shoot every morning instead of sleeping longer hours. This is the kind of film that film critics must endure so you donât have to. Even Denzel Washington couldn't save this film. Iâm going with one out of five.'[14]

Expectations
Hindi Movie Raabta
Sushant Singh Rajput marked his presence on the small screen and later made it big with couple of good Hindi films. He achieved his highest peak with the release of 'M.S Dhoni'.
This movie got all the critical love as well as fared fantastic over the box office. Thus, Sushant's next film after the blockbuster film is something his fans have been looking forward.
The expectations related to 'Raabta' is very high, due to Sushant's fandom and the chemistry between the lead actors.
Story
'Raabta' is a story of Shiv (Sushant Singh Rajput) who is enjoying his new phase of life in Budapest. His best friend (Varun Sharma) informs him about a comet which would be seen only after eight hundred years and on that day many will find their soul mates. Shiv uses this theory to flirt around with local girls until one day when he meets Saira (Kriti Sanon). A strange attraction brings Shiv and Saira together and this leads to a beginning of a new life in their life. Until the arrival of a multi-millionaire Zak Merchant (Jim Sarbh), who has a centuries old past attached to Shiv and Saira. This leads to a series of unfortunate events related to Shiv, Saira and Zak.
The 'Glitz' Factor
The story structure is quite similar to most of the romantic themed reincarnation based films. What makes 'Raabta' different is its contemporary love story. The first half of this movie is highly enjoyable, engaging and intriguing. You will love the chemistry between Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon.
The dialogues manages to add the right amount of spice required in such films. There are several scenes in the first half of the movie which will entertain you throughout. The cinematography is of top notch.
There are few foot tapping songs like 'Ik Vaari Aa' and 'Main Tera Boyfriend'. The background music is outstanding.'Raabta' featuring Deepika Padukone is a visual treat.
Director Dinesh Vijan tries to revive the reincarnation genre back in our Hindi cinema. He does not follow the routine traits of this genre and thatâs what makes 'Raabta' bit different than the usual love stories.
Sushant Singh Rajput is super charming in the film due to his energetic character. Kriti Sanon looks great in her contemporary character and displays a decent act in that track. Jim Sarbh is highly impactful in his role.
The 'Non-Glitz' Factor
The second half dips down drastically. The movie goes on a repetitive mode with not much freshness in it. The periodic track lacks the magic and intensity. The makers should have strictly trimmed down a good amount of chunk in the second half of the film.
Failing to which, the impact of the film gets highly diluted. A couple of scenes, including Jim's finlale track are loud and unwanted.
Director Dinesh Vijanis not able to handle is the second half of the film, especially the past life track. This track looked highly promising in the trailer, but out here ends up being half-baked and fails to create the required impact. There are plenty of loopholes in this part. The movie also keeps dragging in the later part due to its repetitive and bland scenes.
Kriti fails to get inside the skin of her past life character. Jim Sarbh overact and is totally loud in few scenes. Rajkummar Rao and Varun Sharma are wasted.
Final 'Glitz'
'Raabta' is a love story between two decades. The latest one highly appeals and the earlier one refuses to charm its audience.
