Plot

Insurance employee Kunal (Munish Khan) suffers an almost fatal accident but is rescued by passer-by Raghu (Zakir Hussain). Three months later, Kunal and Raghu meet again, and Kunal invites Raghu for tea. That night he realizes that Raghu, while his saviour, is an assassin who is hunted by his enemies. When Kunal's girlfriend (Sara Khan) becomes involved, Kunal must decide between saving his love and repaying his debt to Raghu.

Cast

Reception

Taran Adarsh, writing for Bollywood Hungama, was critical of the movie. While he lauded the chase scenes and found the film's one song "foot-tapping", he felt the constant moving of the camera got irritating and concluded the screenplay, which he described as "hackneyed", "uninteresting" and "inconsistent", ruined what might have otherwise been an interesting film.[4]
