She blames him for the act she had to up (as Sheetal), and she directs him to meet Rathore. He runs to the children's home where he discovers that Sheetal has actually been dead for around 8–10 days.Īrriving home, he finds that the woman masquerading as Sheetal is neither surprised nor scared.
There he and Sheetal discuss what to do next and they almost kiss but his wife calls him and he takes her call immediately remembering his marriage. However, when Satyaveer visits the doctor, he finds that the doctor and Sameera have both been brutally murdered. Satyaveer begins piecing the parts together. She was trying to get Rathore to accept her as a daughter. She turns out to be Sameera Rathore, the illegitimate daughter of Rathore. He follows the woman and makes contact with her. He also spots the woman who visited him on the night Satyaveer took the photos. He follows Rathore and discovers that Rathore receives regular medication from a doctor for an unknown ailment. Around this time, Satyaveer attends a rally function with Rathore in attendance. Seeing as Nimmi has returned to Rohtak (her parents’ house) for Diwali, Satyaveer agrees. She is still scared but somehow warms to him and asks if she can stay with him for a few days. Satyaveer later uncovers that Manorama's death was an accident she was hit by a truck as she fled her pursuers. Satyaveer tells them what was told to him after getting his two fingers broken and his motorbike is stolen. Satyaveer is later set upon by thugs they turn out to be the same men who chased Manorama on the night of her death, and they want to find out what she told him that night. He finds out that Manorama was connected with a local children's home and lived with a roommate, Sheetal ( Raima Sen). The canal project is sponsored by Rathore. The next day's papers report that Manorama committed suicide in connection with her protests against a canal being built through Lakhot. She earnestly urges him to remember her real name, Manorama ( Sarika), and that she is 32 years old. Late one evening, as Satyaveer returns home after drinks with Brij, he spots the same woman running for her life from people who are out to kill her. He finds out that the woman who hired him is not Mrs. Brij finds this all very fishy and advises Satyaveer to take Nimmi on a short vacation. He also confides in his brother-in-law and best friend, the loutish but generally well-meaning local cop Brij Mohan ( Vinay Pathak). Satyaveer snaps a few pictures of this exchange and hands over the roll to Mrs. Rathore rebukes the woman and turns her away. He stealthily stakes out Rathore's manor.
Satyaveer accepts the job in spite of Nimmi's reproach. Captivated by the ingenuity of the detective Raghu, the principal character of the novel, she hopes to secure Satyaveer's assistance in applying the same ingenuity to procure photographic evidence of her husband's affair.
She says she is a big fan of Satyaveer's novel. Rathore, the wife of the Irrigation Minister (and former Maharaja, presumably prior to Independence) P. A well dressed, affluent woman presents herself as Mrs. Satyaveer, an aspiring writer whose only novel Manorama sank without a trace, laments about how he had once wished to be famous but is now resigned to a banal and unremarkable existence. Nimmi ( Gul Panag) broods over how she wishes she had married a richer fellow. As he returns to his irritable and nagging wife Nimmi and their young son, we learn that Satyaveer has just been implicated in a small bribery scandal at work. He compares Lakhot – dry, desolate and despondent – to the general downturn in his own life. The narrator is Satyaveer Singh Randhawa ( Abhay Deol), a down-on-his-luck public works engineer. The film opens with a narrative about a nondescript town called Lakhot in Rajasthan, India.
