An underworld don (Kiran Kumar) has a timid daughter (Amisha Patel) who dares to fall in love with an engineering student (Hrithik Roshan). The don and his foul-tempered son (Mukesh Tiwari) fly off the handle when they discover the affair. But the lovebirds take an eternity — the nine nights of the Navratras, to be precise — to articulate their feelings to each other, and once they are done with their sweet nothings, dumb charades, surreptitious terrace meetings and musical interludes, all hell breaks loose. An audacious elopement and much hide-and-seek later, our hero is beaten black and blue and left for dead. The heartbroken girl pops a kilogram of poison pills and the baddies gloat over their triumph. But hang on, love’s labour isn’t over yet. The hero rises from a watery garbage dump, clotted blooded on his face, rippling muscles and all. Romantic hero turns demolition man and sends his tormentors packing.
