BAS ITNA SA KHWAAB HAI STORY

Goldie Behl, the childhood friend of Abhishek Bachchan, makes his debut as a director with BAS ITNA SA KHWAAB HAI? The film stars Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukherji, Sushmita Sen and Jackie Shroff in pivotal roles.

BAS ITNA SA KHWAAB HAI? is shot extensively in Varanasi. The story of the film, inspired to an extent by director Aziz Mirza's Nana-SRK-Juhi starrer RAJU BAN GAYA GENTLEMAN, goes thus:

Abhishek plays a character hailing from Varanasi. He is an ambitious man who aspires to make it big some day. He decides to try his luck in Mumbai. While trying to manage a foothold in the city of dreams, Abhishek comes across Rani Mukherji and falls in love with her.

Falling in love proves lucky for him because his career starts taking off. Jackie Shroff, a successful media personality, takes him under his wing and Abhishek believes in him completely. Jackie's right-hand woman is Sushmita Sen, his ally in all his shady deals and a temptress.

Slowly, Abhishek starts enjoying the luxuries of life ? a bungalow, flashy cars, money et cetera.

But he realises that that the man he has admired and wanted to emulate ? Jackie Shroff ? is not the good man he thought him to be, but a manipulative, calculating, power hungry editor of a paper.

Instead of staying with Jackie and Sushmita, he returns to Rani for a content, peaceful life, away from materialistic happiness.
