Much like the hundred of thousands of other aspiring actors hoping to strike it big in Bollywood, our ambitious protagonist is used to playing small, insignificant parts. But this actor possesses one unique trait that the rest of his fellow-actors do not - he's the spitting image of a major mafia heavy. Now forced to assume the persona of a wanted man with a fearsome reputation, the actor greets his challenge with Oscar-winning ambition. But his new existence is based entirely on a lie, and while the situations he becomes involved with are merely comical at first, they quickly take a hard turn into far more deadly territory. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
