Kisna is set in the India of the tumultuous 1930`s when nationalists fighting for the country`s
independence rose up as one, urging the British to quit. At this time, a young Indian, Kisna (Vivek
Oberoi) befriends and then shields a British girl Katherine (Antonia Bernath), from an enraged mob of
nationalists including Kisna`s own uncle and brother. Katherine is the young daughter of a ruthless
British collector.
Kisna takes it upon himself to escort Katherine to the safety of the British High Commission in New
Delhi, who will arrange for her to board a ship home. A tender attraction develops between Kisna and
Katherine during the journey, a love story that is torn between ` Karma ` (the noble deed) and ` Dharma
` (the duty). Laxmi (Isha Shravani), the Indian girl Kisna is engaged to, forms the third point in an
emotional triangle involving the Indo-British romantic pair.
