The female protagonist, played by Paoli Dam, gets bamboozled by a tycoon's son, and it would have been a wonder if she hadn't been. Greedy, simple-minded, over-confident and full of silly attitude, she was a sitting duck for the ordeal that she had to face; such was her stupidity that she also managed to get pregnant (in this day and age!) in just one night of wild abandon. The tycoon's son was ruthless, but not ruthless enough, so she managed to survive the ordeal, and continued to drum up trouble for the bloke all through the film. And that about sums up this 'story'.
The film appears to be have been written specifically for Paoli.. there is hardly any frame in which she is not present. The villain (=tycoon's son), played by newcomer, Gulshan Devaiah, is villainous enough. Rest of the cast is inconsequential. There is a lot of unnecessary, jarring background music.. and a lot of unnecessary panning and wide-angle shots of Delhi, and its neighborhood: Gurgaon and Ghaziabad. Are we trying to impress an international audience that we too have high-rises, a metro rail, a dazzling city center (Connaught Place), heritage buildings (India Gate) and ghettos (Chandni Chowk)?
Sometimes, the proceedings border on the ridiculous. For example, when our high-profile heroine approaches a high-class prostitute to learn some tips on how to become a high-class prostitute herself. Apparently, the tips are successful, for soon, from penury, our heroine owns a Mercedes and moves into a sprawling, super-deluxe bungalow. Wow!!
There is a lot of hate here, but no story. I just hope young, impressionable girls do not take the film's underlying message seriously - that blackmail and prostitution are sure-shot ways of getting rich in the shortest possible time.
