Malhotra plays Abhay Singh, a Bihari goon with a powerful politician father (Javed Jaffrey), who orchestrates such kidnappings. Malhotra is terribly miscast as the Bihari henchman and falters in his role, which would have benefited from having an actor with a rugged, raw appeal. The handsome actor is too polished to be believable as a criminal with a conscience. He’s also too vanilla in scenes when he has to look menacing and morbid. Even when he has his boot planted on a potential groom’s face that is plastered on a railway track, he doesn’t evoke fear or disgust.

Chopra, as the spunky Babli Yadav, is a better fit. This 20-something lass with a propensity to elope injects some verve and life into a film that kept careening out of control.
