Kurbaan, the latest film on terrorism, has a similar theme to Dil Se.., with the male and female leads interchanged. While Manisha Koirala was involved in terrorist activities in Dil Se, we have Saif Ali Khan getting involved in terrorism in Kurbaan. While Manisha Koirala uses Shah Rukh Khan in Dil Se.. Saif Ali Khan uses Kareena Kapoor in Kurbaan. However, the way Saif Ali Khan uses Kareena Kapoor in Kurbaan can be compared to Ek Hasina Thi more than Dil Se… Also the character of Vivek Oberoi had some similarities to what Neil Nitin Mukesh was playing in NewYork. But in NewYork, I had problems with how the story was being treated. A depressing theme was made into an action film which didn’t suit the theme at all in my opinion. But in Kurbaan, one is hardly asked to sympathize on the terrorists and the reason they became terrorists. And for that very reason Kurbaan works while New York failed. Dil Se.. obviously was treated in a completely different way.
Kurbaan tells the story of a Eishaan Khan (Saif Ali Khan) who marries an Indian girl, Avantika (Kareena Kapoor) to get into NewYork legally. Avantika then learns over there that she has been cheated and only used by Eishaan Khan to achieve his mission. She then along with Reyez (Vivek Oberoi), tries to stop Ehsaan’s plan to destroy America.

Also, from where were they getting the money to buy those bombs wasn't told in the film.
Rensil D' Silva wrote Luck starring Imran Khan. Well that explains why were there so many unneeded Bollywood elements to create fake suspense in Kurbaan.
I thought it was a taut thriller without much needless stuff. Yes some suspense you knew would end up nowhere, but why is that just fake BW elements? Even HW films have that.
Yeah even HW must have those elements. But I have grown up watching BW, in HW, I ignore films like Transformers, Mission Impossible, etc. :)
