The secret dates in a hidden love between Ram and Niru takes an unforeseen turn, when an unfortunate freak accident at a deserted place, leaves Ram severely injured in an unconscious condition; requiring immediate medical attention . With no other options available, Niru is forced to make a crucial decision  to reach out to Ram’s unsuspecting wife, Lata( Raveena Tendon) who is a reputed Gynaecologist .

Presented by Jio Studios, produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Manish Trehan, this film directed by Manish Gupta has twists and turns at appropriate places in the screenplay, to keep the viewers engaged from beginning till end. What is interesting is the interaction among these three important characters and the perfection of the director to take care of every important happening in this plot, be it Lata forgetting her phone at home before rushing to the accident spot or later disconnecting the CC cameras after her returning home.All the sequences are properly executed, to remove all the poosible doubts from the minds of the viewers.

Above all, the performances of these three artistes are superb. Raveena in particular has really worked very hard to present the dilemma faced by a wife, after knowing the truth about her husband’s affair and her reaction thereon. And the director has very cleverly exhibited her skills being an experienced actress. Certainly, a worth watch film.
