Summary[]
Prithvi (Sunil Shetty), a famous photographer, and Neha (Shilpa Shetty) fall in love and soon get married. Prithvi and Neha both fly to America for their honeymoon, but when Neha uses the bathroom at a restaurant, she gets kidnapped. Prithvi is very scared and would do anything to get Neha back. He takes the help of Lucky (Shweta Menon). When Prithvi was near a hospital, he finds Neha, but she has fainted, but once she wakes up, she does not recognize Prithvi. The girl he found was, in fact, a duplicate of Neha, whose name was Rashmi. Neha was threatened by her kidnapper (Faraaz Khan) as she should prove him as innocent for a murder case. Prithvi and Rashmi rush to the court and say that he is not innocent and has gotten a duplicate of the girl. Prithvi finds Neha, and they both live happily ever after.
