The struggling actor then reincarnates to avenge her death. Other than SRK and Deepika Padukone, this movie also starred Shreyas Talpade, Kirron Kher, Bindu Desai and Javed Sheikh in supporting roles. Arjun Rampal portrayed the role of the antagonist in the movie. The climax of the movie was an inspiration from the climax of the 1958 movie ‘Madhumati’.
