The film explores four stories which eventually become intertwined with 9/11.[1][2][3]

Plot

The film follows four interconnected stories involving six people linked only by their connection to the planes involved in the September 11 attacks.

  • Tilottama Das-Punj is happily married to Hemant, whom she met online. Their life together is interrupted when Hemant must travel to the United States for work. Left behind with her controlling mother-in-law, who discourages her from contacting him, Tilottama eventually manages to join her husband in the US. After narrowly missing one of the doomed flights, she is reunited with Hemant with the help of a good Samaritan.
  • Salim Rajabali, the wealthy son of a powerful godmother, becomes embroiled in a murder investigation and discovers that his girlfriend, Namrata, has been unfaithful. Before matters escalate further, he flees the country and travels to New York. While visiting the World Trade Center to meet a friend, he is killed when a hijacked plane crashes into the tower.
  • Rahul Bhide is a poor but academically gifted student who is delighted to receive an offer to study at a prestigious university in the US. His happiness is overshadowed by financial difficulties, and he is close to abandoning his plans until his friend Khushboo helps fund his education. Rahul boards one of the doomed flights and dies in the attack.
  • Rajubhai Patel works as an event organiser for a popular foreign television programme. His former girlfriend, Tara, mortgages her house so that their daughter, Payal, can visit him. Rajubhai and Payal later board the doomed flights and do not survive.
