曾经，大魔术师马斯卡雷（里提克·罗申 Hrithik Roshan 饰）一次又一次的用自己高超的技术和精彩的表演震惊世人，不幸的是，一次表演中的失误让他不得不面临终身瘫痪的悲惨命运。在护士索菲亚（艾西瓦娅·雷 Aishwarya Rai Bachchan 饰）的精心照料 下，马斯卡雷的“瘫痪生活”过的还算不错，与此同时，只能躺在床上的他依然在努力用自己的智慧和语言为魔术事业做着贡献。
随着时间的推移，马斯卡雷发现自己的思维开始混沌，身体的各项技能都因为长时间的静卧而出现了退化，这也意味着，用不了多少时间，他将真正的变成一个“植物人”。意识到了自己糟糕的境况，马斯卡雷向索菲亚提出了一个令人震惊的请求，那就是让她帮助他结束自己的生命。

Following the establishment of the East India Company in 1857, some Mughals, led by Sarfaraz Khan, decided to rebel against their British masters, killing many, and forcing others to flee. Three women from the Labadoor family, Grandma, Mariam, and Ruth, seek shelter with a local money-lender, Lala Ramjimal, who would like to recover his money from the Labadoors and has a vented interest in their survival. But he is unable to keep their presence secret, and Javed Khan and his men storm into his home, and take the three women to Javed's house. Under normal circumstances, these three would have been beheaded and Ramjimal and his family severely punished, but Javed would like to make Ruth his second wife. Mariam and Javed's wife, Firdaus, strongly oppose this move, but Javed is clearly obsessed by Ruth's beauty and nothing will deter him from marrying her. Then things gets really complicated when Ruth starts having feelings for Javed, and the British seek retribution for those killed by the Mughals. Written by rAjOo (gunwanti@hotmail.com)
