Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor’s upcoming movie Kurbaan is a romantic thriller with terrorism as its backdrop. Kareena said that the film provides a balanced dose of love, intensity and emotions.

Kurbaan is a very different kind of film; it is more like an English movie. As far as the issue of tagline is concerned, I can say that it is because the film contains lot of intensity and emotions, it has gritty,” said Kareena.

The film tries to depict the post bombing effect on the daily lives of Muslim population living in the US after September 11 attacks.

On this score, Kareena said that though the film deals with militancy, it is a romantic thriller.

“It has nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks on World Trade Centre. Though it has terrorism as a backdrop but it is love story,” she added.

Directed by a debutant Rensil D’Silva, the film stars Saif Ali Khan, Dia Mirza, Kiron Kher, Vivek Oberoi and Om Puri.

Salim Merchant and Sulaiman Merchant have composed the music for the songs penned by famed lyricist and screenplay writer Prasoon Joshi.
