Plot summary
Nikhil Bhardwaj, a struggling businessman, loves Karishma Solanki, an actress. He holds that a man committed to one woman should not stray. Before the marriage he asked Karishma's father, Devesh, for fifty million rupees to win a contract; Devesh declined and left him to prove himself. A week before the wedding, Karishma's younger sister Meeta turns up. Nikhil and Meeta had met briefly seven years earlier. Meeta holds a doctorate in chemical engineering and has odd habits and tics. Years ago she took money from Devesh for her research and left for China; he had a heart attack that day, at her eldest sister's wedding. She has come to see her father, and Karishma, afraid the visit will spoil the wedding, puts Nikhil in charge of watching her and keeping her away from the family.
