Kunal soon starts spending too much time with his boss, Zaveri (Manish Choudhary), who takes him under his wing. As a result, Kunal’s wife, Arzoo (Amrita Puri), who has moved to Cape Town with him, spends most of her time alone at their lavish home. One day, after a party, Kunal sleeps with his co-worker, Rosa (Mia Uyeda).

Next, he discovers that his boss’ brother (Sandeep Sikand) is siphoning off money from the company’s accounts by undervaluing diamonds and creating fake bills. When Kunal reports this to Zaveri, the latter reveals to him the company’s practice of buying illegal diamonds and, thereby, tinkering with its accounts. Zaveri gives Kunal a choice of looking into the illegal practices of the company and losing his job, or continuing with the job and getting richer by the day. Kunal chooses the latter option.

Kunal now executes every order of his boss and even deals with the diamond mafia. But soon his conscience stars pricking him and he decides to do something about it. When Zaveri’s brother, who is envious of Kunal’s success, blackmails him with photos of him getting intimate with Rosa, Kunal tells Arzoo that he had cheated on her. Arzoo decides to leave him.

At his wits’ end, Kunal approaches a colleague and shares his plans of revealing the truth to the police. The colleague warns him not to go ahead with such a plan, as it could have serious consequences.

Talking about the Music,Yes its Good,infact all songs are good to listen.Full marks to Music.

Star Performances

Kunal Kemmu does a convincing job as the young Kunal Kadam. He is very good in several scenes. Amrita Puri, as Kunal’s wife, has little to do, but she was intolerable,giving only 1 out of 5. Manish Choudhary, as Zaveri, tries hard but fails to be the evil boss. The much hyped Mia Uyeda is eye candy. Sandeep Sikand, as Zaveri’s brother, disappoints. Shekher Shukla does okay in a short role as a Gujarati businessman. Karan Mehra, as the police officer, leaves a lot to be desired. Teeshay (as Kunal’s colleague) and others offer average support.

Watch or Not?: Not recommended.

Verdict: Movie is average,Kunal kemmu tried to make the audience seated on their seat still

its a Thumbs Down to it.
