SAAWARIYA.. Another Love Story


Adapted from Dostoevsky’s short story WHITE NIGHTS, SAWARIYA has a very simple story at its core. The film revolves around Raj (Ranbir Kapoor), a free-spirited kind-hearted dreamer who arrives at a quaint and magical town. A magical place surrounded by dazzling mountains, shrouded in mystery and inspiring enough to be the work of a painter or poet. One silent night Raj sees a mysterious girl standing alone crying at the bridge. This chance encounter introduces him to Sakina, a shy, quiet and enigmatic girl who continues to intrigue him and one who also steals his heart. Thus follows the beginning of a new friendship, where Raj with his most charming ways and an undying spirit tries to win Sakina’s heart. However Sakina is already in love with someone else-Imaan (Salman Khan) who has left to go to another city for a year to fulfill his duties, but has promised to return to her a year after on Eid. Raj is unable to accept her haunting past and their friendship pulls him into a whirlwind of desire, madness and romance. Finally Eid arrives, does Imaan finally arrive and whisk Sakina away? Or does Raj end up with the girl of his dreams and lives happily ever after?
