Story :
A good tale gone bad, this is a mix of four stories. Firstly, there is a humiliated cop ACP Chautala (manu rishi) who has 24 hours before he nabs four Nigerian drug peddlers. Then there is Salman (kay kay) who is on vengeance mode as he searches for the killer of his parents. Then there is Amol (ranvir) who comes to Mumbai to save his girlfriend forcibly married to a millionaire. Then there is Dolly (neha) who comes from Punjab to become a heroine but blows away all her money. She has to recover all that before she returns home. The story happens in just one night when the paths of the four intersect. What happens after that forms the rest of the tale.

Presentation :
The director has come up with a mix of four stories and while the presentation was decent, the narrative was not that appealing. The dialogues were written well at few places but didn’t add much value. The script was poor and the screenplay was shoddy. Background score was good but the songs were not that great. Cinematography was upto the mark. Editing was not crisp. Costumes were designer styled while the art department was colorful and trendy. Kay Kay Menon was fantastic, Manu Rishi was moderate, Ranvir Shorey was good, Neha Bhasin was sexy and appealing, Sharat Saxena was alright. Cameos by Jackie Shroff, Shakti Kapoor and others filled the gaps.

Conclusion :
It is often interesting to see four different tracks of stories in one film and then the amalgamation of those makes it exciting. But such a concept takes good skill and a strong sense of writing. That was missing here. Though the tracks individually are good, it takes a strong grip over the screenplay to present such topics. While the first half was alright, the second half ends in a mix up of sorts and loses the steam. Overall, this is a film which came up as a good thought but didn’t really work well on the screen. Success at box office is highly unlikely.
