SYNOPSIS

'Naqaab' is a love story. A love triangle. But love triangles are boring. And love stories are dime a dozen. So what’s unique about this story? The uniqueness is the Film Director’s Abbas-Mustan and the production house Tips Films. Abbas-Mustan, the men in white, would never make a straight love story. Hence to say that our story is a romantic thriller, would be an under statement.

Well coming back to the story, let us first tell you that it is based on the scenic locales of Dubai. A girl called Sophia (new find Urvashi Sharma), from the middle strata of society meets a guy called Karan (Bobby Deol), belonging to the upper echelon of society. Opposites attract. Hence Sophia falls in love with Karan and gets engaged to him. Comes guy No. 2 – Vicky (Akshaye Khanna); he belongs to the same strata of society as the girl. Positives come close too. Hence, Sophia inspite of being engaged to Karan, starts falling for Vicky. So what’s new about this story??

The girl – Sophia has a past that seems to be threatening her future… The guy – Vicky also has a past that can jeopardize the girl’s future. And the rich guy Karan, too has a gruesome past, that will… if unleashed shatter all the three lives. Besides, to top it all, there is a fourth element to the story… a mysterious man… who seems to be monitoring all the three characters. Do you want to know more?? Well… you will have to watch it in the theatres.
