Plot
Inderjit "Inder" Bansal is a rich young man. Although his parents want him to settle down, he goes to another city to do his MBA and stays with friends. During this time, he meets Pallavi Sinha and they fall in love. She reciprocates his feelings, but trouble comes in the form of her tyrannical trio of brothers, who are over-protective of their little sister and take an irrational dislike to Inder. They show hostility towards Inder and conflicts arise within the households and the couple decides to elope, but afterward realize they miss their families. They decide to return home, relinquishing their feelings, but ultimately their families accept their love, and they are reunited.

Reception
Anish Khanna of Planet Bollywood gave the film 8.5 out of 10. Faisal Shariff of Rediff wrote, "The film plays on traditional family values, and that isn't very convincing. And the way it was carried off could have been a trifle subtler, we thought." The film was commercially unsuccessful.

Soundtrack[
The soundtrack for the film was composed by A. R. Rahman, who worked with Priyadarshan in his previous film Kabhi Na Kabhi to spawn a critically acclaimed soundtrack. The lyrics were written by Mehboob. Rahman reused most of the songs in the 1999 Tamil film Jodi. The producers of Jodi's 2007 Kannada remake Sajni, bought the rights of the songs and used it in the film. The video clip of the song "Kissa Hum Likhenge" was made in the Greek islands Mykonos and Melos.
