Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota () is a 2006 Hindi-language drama from India, directed by Naseeruddin Shah. The movie stars notable performers such as Konkona Sen Sharma, Irrfan Khan, Ayesha Takia, Jimmy Sheirgill, Paresh Rawal, Boman Irani, and Saroj Khan. It presents four interconnected stories that revolve around the incidents of the 9/11.
Plot
The narrative centers on four distinct tales involving six individuals whose lives intersect solely through the tragedy of the two airplanes crashing into the Twin Towers on September 11 attacks.
- Tilottama Das-Punj (Konkona Sen Sharma) enjoys a happy marriage with Hemant (Jimmy Sheirgill), whom she met online. Hemant must depart for the United States on a work assignment, leaving Tilottama behind with a critical mother-in-law. Later, she travels to join Hemant in America, narrowly misses boarding the ill-fated flight, and is reunited with him through the help of a stranger.
- Salim Rajabali (Irrfan Khan), son of an influential matriarch, becomes entangled in a homicide investigation and uncovers his partner Namrata’s betrayal. He escapes to New York, visits the World Trade Center, and ultimately loses his life when the hijacked plane strikes his building.
- Rahul Bhide (Ankur Khanna), an intelligent yet underprivileged student, receives an opportunity to study abroad in the US. With financial assistance from his friend Khushboo, he boards the doomed airplane and tragically does not survive.
- Rajubhai Patel, who organizes events for an international television program, is visited by his daughter Payal, whose mother Tara mortgages their home to finance her trip. Both Rajubhai and Payal perish in the plane crashes.
