Bluffmaster
2005 has been the year when the 'CON' has ruled. Be it the mega-hit 'Bunty Aur Babli' or the turkey 'Bachke Rehna Re Baba', be it thriller/drama/action rolled into one 'Chocolate' or the popcorn flick 'Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena', each of the movies has tried to out-con each other. And now the year ends too with the movie 'Bluffmaster' where the title itself gives it away about the theme. And isn't the audience still wanting for more? Starring Abhishek Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra for the first time together, 'Bluffmaster' directed by Rohan Sippy also has Nana Patekar and Ritesih Deshmukh giving 'Bluffmaster' an added 'tadka'!
In the world of crime, loot and illegal activities, there is one man who considers his job to be the finest art of all. He doesn't choose to follow a right path or a wrong path. Instead he chooses the path where he believes he can deliver BEST. He is Roy [Abhishek Bachchan] a conman, and a professional for that matter. He believes in a simple saying that explains his preferences in life:
'Baap Bada Na Bhaiyya, Sabse Bada Rupaiyya'
No doubt he has no regrets about his profession. But there is one regret in his life for sure. First and foremost he cannot reveal his true identity to the person whom he loves most in his life - Simmi [Priyanka Chopra]. As like all the love stories, this love story is built on trust and togetherness. But when this very trust breaks once Roy's true identity is revealed, Simmi breaks away from him
Roy's world is shattered, but life moves on!
Soon enters his life another conman Aditya Srivastava [Riteish Deshmukh], who is a kid and still learning the trick of the ropes. In his mind he believes that he has a potential to be the greatest conman ever but the fact remains that he has a long way to go. He needs Roy's help to reach there but Roy is hesitant about the proposal. First and foremost the very nature of the two men is poles apart.
While Roy is inherently smart, Aditya is by choice dumb! Roy is the one who does things with a cool head while Aditya is always in a hurry! Roy treats his profession as a work of art while for Aditya is something that can be done in a jiffy!
No doubt Roy doesn't want Aditya to be his 'chela'. But Dittu (as Aditya is called) is unrelenting and wants to learn the rules of the game from none other than the best of all - BLUFFMASTER!
Finally Roy bows down to the wishes of Dittu and takes him into his wings. Another factor that inspires Roy to take this step is to help him avoid memories of his lady love. And from here begins a new journey for Roy.
A journey that brings Roy closer to Aditya! A journey that has something new to offer every passing day! A journey that gets more and more exciting as the days progress!
A journey that changes the direction of Aditya's life forever with a brutal truth that stares him on his face!
Roy, who always though that he was THE BEST suddenly realizes that this time around he is THE VICTIM.
What happened that impacted Roy's life to such an extent that there was no looking back? Did he ever get back Simmi? Who is Dittu? And where does Nana Patekar fit into the entire narrative?
Come fishing this December 16th and you will get all the answers!
