One day, Aman succeed to introduce a Naina’s frienf, Sweetu to foreign men named Frenky. Aman is very happy for his success, but Naina is not.

Based on the suggestions from Sweetu and Rohit, Naina come to Aman’s hous to say her feelings. Before Naina got in Aman’s house, Rohit phoned man that his heart was destroyed because Naina fall in love with Aman, not Rohit. Naina has not had time to express her feelings, but Naina saw a picture Aman with Priya (Aman’s doctor) that using a wedding dress. And then Aman made a false story that she had been married with Priya. It made Naina was devastated, why when the first time she fell in love, she’s falling in love with the wrong person. Actually Aman also loves Naina but  Aman does n’t wanna make Naina more sad because Aman got heart disease and his life is not too long.

Because Aman loves Naina, she decided to give her love to Naina by Rohit. Aman’s planning was succed, although the process was too long. Rohit proposed to Naina and she accept his proposal. Aman was very happy hearing this news even though his heart very sad. After engagement Naina with Rohit held, suddenly Aman’s disease relapse and had to be hospitalized. When Rohit and Naina was shopping at a mall, Naina meets with Priya. Priya had told everything to Naina what actually happened. And finally Naina knew that Aman also loves her so much.

Aman made Rohit marry Naina. Emotive and happy must be showed by Aman in front of Naina as embodiments apology because he could not  give more things to Naina. Although Aman got disease, her mental and physical being united in grief on Naina’s wedding day. Occasionally Aman watched Naina from afar as prepare his self for Naina’s wedding. The scene was smothering. And a week after the wedding between Naina and Rohit, Aman had died.

This film is a good film and was able to bring the audience seemed to be in the film. The plot is very clear and does not make people feel confused when watching it. The film also gives a lot of messages that we can apply in our life daily. I very admire about Aman's character is he always tried to make people around him happy on the sidelines of her age that not too long. In my opinion, this movie is don’t have a deficiency. So I do not need to comment the deficiency on this movie.
