Like most films from the Ram Gopal Varma stable, 'Darwaza Bandh Rakho' has a novel theme but it falls flat after an interesting start.
The story- Four men; Ajay (Aftab Shivdasani), Raghu (Chunky Pandey), Goga (Snehal Dabhi), and Abbas (Zakir Hussain) have dreams of making it big. So they plan to make a quick buck by kidnapping a builder's daughter, Isha (Isha Sharvani). They force themselves into a Gujju businessman's house (Ishrat Ali). The family comprises of his wife (Smita Jaykar), mother, two kids; a son and daughter, and the domestic help (Divya Dutta). They capture them and make them hostages in their own house.
The foursome realizes that they're unlucky when they hear that Isha's father (Gulshan Grover) has flown out of the country the same day. The kidnappers are forced to stay put in the house. They take all the people who come into the house as hostages in order to keep their identity and plan under wraps. This creates a series of situations, some hilarious and some too complex for the kidnappers to handle.
