            A beautiful girl is waiting alone for the bus in the night
            with no vehicles on the street and no body around. The scene that follows in Indian films
            is obvious, she is raped. Yes, that is exactly what happens to Shanti (Laya). A middle
            class girl, Laya is an eye witness to a brutal crime. She boldly volunteers and gives her
            witness in front of the police and the court. To take revenge, the brother of the gang
            leader rapes her.  
                
            Laya is thrown out of her house. Her father is scared to keep her thinking that this may
            affect the future of her sisters who are still young. She is   |

                Now comes a gentleman in real sense of the term, Mr. Anand
                (Shivraj Kumar). Son of a millionaire will be staying away from his father to stand on his
                own principles. He comes to her rescue and gives shelter to Laya. Anand will be taking
                care of two illegitimate children of his own father. Eventually these two fall in love and
                decide to get married.  
                      
                Although a remake, it is a good one. It is a movie with a  message and stands out
                from the regular love triangles. Technically it has nothing new to offer. Music is also
                average. Shivraj Kumar has proved his abilities and justified the role. Laya and   |
