Bhagat witnesses this horrific spectacle and is unable to do anything to save his wife. The robbers were masked, but one of them had a tear in his shoe and another was wearing a locket, very similar to the one worn by his wife.

ReceptionOne reviewer said of the film, "Alas, the story simply does not reach the same heights as the casting. The music, too, is utterly disposable, with perhaps one decent song in the bunch."[3] References
