SYNOPSIS
The valiant Naval officer Sunil (Sunny Deol) is to marry the beautiful Kiran.
The problem, which forms the basis for the film, is that she is being stalked
by an obsessed lover Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan), the son of Sunil's superior
in the Navy (Dalip Tahil).
When things get unbearable, Sunil takes Kiran for a honeymoon to Switzerland.
The holiday plans are kept confidential. When a drunken loser (Annu Kapoor)
who had a soft corner for Kiran, dies, Shah Rukh hangs him and spreads out
images of Juhi around him, making it seem like the suicide of the obsessed
lover. At the news of his death, Kiran's sister-in-law (Tanvi Azmi) and
brother (Anupam Kher) heave a sigh of relief. Meanwhile Rahul has already
infiltrated the household and attempted to make friends with them. Upon
hearing the news that the stalker is dead, they celebrate and unwittingly
it is revealed that Sunil and Kiran are in Switzerland.
Rahul makes his way to Switzerland. While Sunil and Kiran are dancing at
a party, Rahul stage-manages bumping 'accidentally' into him. Though they
are surprised to see him here, they welcome him anyway. Sunil becomes suspicious
only when Juhi's brother reveals on the telephone that Rahul had been frequenting
their home in their absence. Sunny Deol baits Rahul and beats him up but
in the end Rahul manages to stab Sunny. Rahul runs to the boat and begins
to make preparations for his wedding with the terrified Kiran. At the last
minute, Sunil staggers on board and manages to shoot Rahul thrice in the
abdomen. Rahul dies uttering the name Kiran... but for the first time he does
not stammer.
