Kidnap

Sonia (Minissha Lamba) lives with her mother, Mallika (Vidya Malvade) and grandmother (Reema Lagoo) because her parents had divorced when she was ten. A fortnight before her eighteenth birthday, she picks an argument with her mother about her coming home late after the Christmas Party. Her mother tells her to stay within limits and arrive home in time. She is reluctant to abide by the rule and after much negotiation demands that she would listen to everything if she gets to meet her father. Then she leaves home and goes swimming in the sea to vent out. Far into the sea, she vanishes underwater.

She wakes up in the evening in a cottage which has no exit. At first she doesn't believe that she has been kidnapped and thinks that her friends are playing a prank on her. The abductor Kabir (Imran Khan) tells her how she came there. When she went swimming in the open sea, he pulled her below the water surface and knocked her unconscious using a bottled chloroform.

On the other hand, everyone is worried at her home. Next morning, her mother receives a call from Kabir wherein he says that he is interested in speaking to her father, Vikrant Raina (Sanjay Dutt), a New York based Indian business tycoon, with whom he has an old score to settle.

Vikrant Raina is introduced as a very cruel and heartless person but a very wealthy man, worth of USD 51.7 billion. He is in India because he believes someone has emptied a large share of his money. While there, he sees Mallika in the lounge and asks what brought her there. She tells him that Sonia has been kidnapped and that the kidnapper wants to speak to him only.

Its around 3 p.m. when the kidnapper calls again. Vikrant and Sonia speak to each other for the first time in eight years. Kabir tells Vikrant that the money is safe in his own account. Vikrant wants to know what the reason behind the kidnapping is. Kabir tells him that he has to do a couple of things so as to release his daughter. The very first of them is saying "Sorry" to Sister Margaret whom he would find on a train from Panvel at 4 p.m. Vikrant says its crazy to reach there in haf an hour. But Kabir tells him that she has a clue of how the father and daughter can meet. Vikrant is determined to reach the place by 4 and he has to overcome unwarranted circumstances. Sister Margaret hands over a piece of paper which has a poetry written on it. Vikrant knows there is something in it so he involves a detective Irfan (Rahul Dev) who has solved many corporate kidnapping case successfully in the past.

But Kabir is interested in playing a deadly game with Raina. He is asked to perform daring tasks (like robbery from a business rival's house) which would reward him with a clue to identify the kidnapper and the motive of kidnapping.

On the other hand its hard to believe for Sonia that she has been kidnapped. Initially Kabir is good with her but when she tries to stab Kabir he ties her up.

He survives and takes her to the known cottage. She soon realizes that this house is old cottage. Kabir tells her that when he was a kid he was accused of kidnapping Sonia by Raina when he was trying to save his friend who had fallen from a ladder by borrowing Raina's car which was known to him. He spent a lot of time in jail too.

One day when he calls no one picks up. He decides to pay a visit there but is detected by Raina and Irfan. He looses Raina but lets him meet his daughter. He tells him to remove Irfan and that he has to flee a prisoner next. Raina does it and follows Kabir. But Irfan attacks Kabir and Raina looses his trail.

Vikrant gets to know Sonia's location and reaches there but doesn't find her. The next task is murder on New Year Eve night. After he does it, he gets to know where Sonia is at that moment and rescues her.

In the end he unites with his wife and the family is happy.
