This film is from the director of 'Dil Vil Pyaar Vyaar', 'Dil Maange More', 'Aksar' and 'Victoria No.203'. Need I say more!

Dr. Adi Merchant (Shreyas Talpade ) is a psychiatrist. He is treating Aryan (Tusshar Kapoor), who is in the mental asylum after killing his girlfriend (Sophie Chaudhary).

Dr. Adi also helps Aryan get out on bail. Meanwhile, the doctor's wife Jhanvi (Udita Goswami) accuses him of cheating on her with Radha (Saadhika). Jhanvi, who also runs a successful business, soon immerses herself completely in work. Incidentally, Aryan joins her company as an employee. Jhanavi and Aryan get attracted to each other and are involved in a steamy affair. Jhanavi realizes her folly and wants to go back to her husband but Aryan is in no mood to relent. What happens next forms rest of the film.

Films with similar plots have been attempted many times before and most of them have not made an impact. Even this one doesn't!
Shreyas Talpade puts in a fantastic performance and proves that he is one of the best in the business today but in no way does look like a psychiatrist. Udita Goswami and Tusshar Kapoor do a decent job. Nauheed Cyrusi and Saadhika are just about ok.

Music by Mithoon is good but sounds similar to his earlier scores in other films. Cinematography by K. Rajkumar is decent. Screenplay by S. Farhan is not as taut, as one would be expected from a thriller genre film.

Anant Narayan Mahadevan is definitely a director to watch out for. Any film directed by him is to be avoided like plague!

* (One star)
