The 2003 film , directed by Vikram Bhatt, is a significant entry in the early 2000s Bollywood crime thriller genre, primarily noted today for being the debut film of actor Emraan Hashmi
. Released on August 15, 2003, it explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the cyclical nature of crime in Mumbai's underworld. Plot Summary and Narrative Arc
The story follows three childhood friends—Arjun Singh (Aftab Shivdasani), Raghu Srivastav (Emraan Hashmi), and Shekhar Srivastav (Rahul Dev)—raised in the crime-prone areas of Mumbai. After Arjun’s father is murdered by anti-unionists, the trio takes revenge, forcing Arjun to flee to Delhi to start a new life under the alias Mohan Kumar Sharma.
Twenty years later, the police track Arjun down and coerce him into an undercover mission: he must return to Mumbai to infiltrate his friends' now-powerful drug-dealing gang to reach their "big fish" leader. The narrative tension arises from Arjun’s internal conflict as he balances his duty as a police officer with his deep-rooted bond with Raghu and Shekhar.
