'Zindagi pe tera mera, kis ka na zor hai. Hum sochte hai kuch, yeh sochti kuch aur hai', go the lyrics from the title track of YEH SAALI ZINDAGI. They are terse enough to describe what goes on in the film, and life in general. The film, just like life, is replete with unexpected twists and never ceases to amaze!

In YSZ, Sudhir Mishra's back with his HAZAARON KHWAISHEIN AISI actress, Chitrangada Singh. Being backed by Prakash Jha Productions', the film got a decent pre-release promotion and has generated enough buzz.

YSZ basically traces several characters and how their tracts are eventually connected. Arun (Irrfan Khan) meets singer Priti (Chitrangada Singh) and is instantly enamoured by her beauty. Priti gets attracted to Shyam (Vipul Gupta) who's introduced to her by Arun himself (Talk about digging one's own grave). Shyam is engaged to a high-profile minister's daughter. Petite goon Kuldeep (Arunoday Singh) kidnaps Shyam so that he can exchange him with his jailed boss Bade (Yashpal Sharma) from the minister. Priti finds herself intertwined in this messy situation and Arun wants to help her unconditionally.
