The movie is adapted from James Hadley Chase's novel -- The Sucker Punch. It is a movie of passion, crime and betrayal directed by Ketan Mehta in the year 1997. Most of it was shot in Italy. Shekhar Khosla(Jackie Shroff) is an Accounts Executive, an alcoholic, a penniless playboy. He has an on and off romance with cabaret dancer Julie (Ritu Shivpuri).
One day his boss talks to him to improve himself, and hands him a multi-million rupee client, by the name of Veena Sanghvi(Kamal Sidhu), and asks him to maintain and strengthen relationship with this client. Shekhar meets with Veena, seduces her and marries her, while carrying with an affair with her Personal Secretary, Anu Chauhan(Deepa Sahi, real life wife of the director Ketan Mehta). When Veena finds out about this affair, she threatens to separate from him, and it is then Shekhar and Anu plan to kill her. They carry out their plan successfully, with the police concluding that her death was accidental. Then Shekhar finds out that Anu does not love him, but another man by the name of Anil. To make matters worse, the police have across evidence linking him to the death of his former wife. There are a few Hindi songs of this movie which were chart busters in that year -- especially "Dil diya Pyar kiya" by Asha Bhosle and Sudesh Bhosle.
