Story: Jawahar, who migrated from Pakistan to India during Partition, loses his son, Jatin, an intelligence officer who is labelled a traitor. Some decades later, his grand daughter, Sameera sets out to reclaim the family's honour by going to Pakistan as an Indian spy. She wants to stymie a Pakistani plot to send terrorists into India. Does she succeed?


Movie Review: It's loud, exaggerated, overplayed and spills over with a string of bad performances. A crying family of much-misunderstood Indian patriots wants to be understood. So what does it do? It sends the grand daughter to Pakistan to steal secrets from the evil Pakistani minister, Raza Murad. Now that seems to be kid's play for our comely young thing. For when she's not romancing the minister's son or chopping tomatoes in his kitchen, she's hacking his computer and downloading confidential files with the help of her Indian boyfriend, who, believe it or not, has bribed his way across the border. As if that's not bizarre enough, there's more to this balderdash. Almost all the Pakistanis, other than the ones with mean eyes, wicked grins and skull caps, seem to be hell bent on helping the Indian girl. Aisa bhi hota hai?

Ekdum unbelievable and uncinematic!
