He committed his love to one woman. And fell in love with another.
Pritish Nandy Communications' first offering for the year is a romance unlike
any other. Inspired by the events of his life, Vikram Bhatt puts to celluloid a
film after his own heart, Ankahee.
The truth is that Shekhar (Aftab Shivdasani) was a common man. Happily married
to his wife Nandita (Ameesha Patel) of several years. The relationship was
sealed as special by the coming of their child. They were a happy family. Till
one day, the reigning Miss World and Bollywood's biggest star, Kavya Krishna (Esha
Deol), walked into his hospital armed with a slit wrist and what Shekhar
believed to be, true love.
Kavya was beautiful, stunning in fact. She was smart and alive and Shekhar, like
the rest of the world, fell in love with her. Days hurried past as he cleared
the rest of his life, his wife, his daughter, his friends, his work to make way
for his love. Nothing was more important than Kavya and his need to be her
constant.
Kavya Krishna. The reigning Miss World. The most beautiful woman in the world.
Or maybe the most beautiful woman in a pageant of 60 girls. Bollywood's biggest
upcoming star. Beautiful. Powerful. Successful. Alone. Lonely in a world where
she was the most popular woman. For her Shekhar was the lifeline, she'd always
sought. Her anchor. Her man. The only person in the world who could make her
happy. And Kavya wanted, needed, struggled to be happy.
Nandita, of course, was the woman stuck in the middle. Shekhar was her husband.
The only man she'd ever loved. And yet, he'd found it only too easy to walk
away. From her. From their home. And from Sheena, their 6 year old daughter.
Ankahee is about the truths that were left unspoken between a man, his wife and
his daughter. And the lies that need to be uncovered.
It is a film about brutal love, deception, betrayal and the desperate loneliness
that accompanies all three.
