Awarapan comes from the stables of ace movie mavericks, Mukesh Bhatt and Mahesh Bhatt, famous for crafting Bollywood’s biggest musical hits, Zeher, Woh Lamhe and Gangster.
Shot in Hong Kong and Bangkok, Awarapan is an intense and compelling drama about love, passion and betrayal.
It tracks the journey of Shivam (Emraan Hashmi), a godless heartbroken boy who has never known or felt love. In order to escape the ghosts of his tragic past, Shivam dedicates himself to serve his gangster boss in Hong Kong with unflinching correctness and loyalty. His boss trusts him enough to ask him to keep an eye on his alluring girlfriend Reema (Shreya Saran) whom he has kept away from the eyes of his adversaries.
Shivam’s heart melts on seeing her innocence and vulnerability. The atheist turns into a believer, as he begins smiling and responding to life. Reema gives Shivam reason to believe that she likes him. Existence begins to blush for Shivam but only till the reality dawns on him that Reema has a secret lover tucked away and was planning to elope with him. Her game was merely a smoke- screen created to gain freedom.
A shattered Shivam is in a dilemma on realizing that he has been heartlessly used – does he inform his boss or does he earn his wrath by helping his unrequited love to achieve the freedom she yearns for?
