The movie’s plot premise is set according to the book- a young woman who is devastated with her life and has no hope, suddenly finds herself to be a lucky charm for the Indian cricket team. Obviously, the movie is based on the book, so those who have already read the book happen to know quite a bit about the plot of the movie. But there will be, of course, certain distinctions from the book for dramatic flares, but the general idea and goal from the movie will stay the same. There has been a campaign which involved Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor, Karan Johar and Twinkle Khanna regarding the promotion for The Zoya Factor. These actors opened up about their own lucky charms during discussions about The Zoya Factor.
