'HAT TRICK!' is a story of the triumph of the human spirit.
Actually, it is FOUR stories that deal with the triumph of the human spirit. Deriving it's name from the famous magical expression of a 'Hat Trick', it deals with four stories from different slices of life, in different parts of the world, each of which reach a crescendo, and each of which need the protagonist to pull out a magic trick from the hat. Something that they've never done before, and something that must be done now, in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
Because it will make the difference between winning and losing.
The four stories are all connected with Cricket. To be specific, with the World Cup of Cricket that is to be played in the Caribbean in 2007. Using the tournament as a sensational and poignant backdrop, and the fictionalized fortunes of the Indian Cricket Team in the tournament, 'HAT TRICK!' takes a tangy look at what happens to five sets of lives during the span of the tournament.
