Plot
Majnu
Lipakshi is married to Babloo but is unhappy with their relationship, and seeks affection from other men. When Raj Kumar, the son of their driver, joins their household as an employee, Lipakshi becomes interested in him. Raj, a talented finance graduate, decides to work for Babloo instead of taking a job offer in London, and proves to be profitable for the business. He also shows romantic interest in Lipakshi, without Babloo's awareness. Babloo does not have affection towards Lipakshi, but he feels the need to protect his family's reputation and does not tolerate her extramarital affairs. Despite this, Lipakshi continues to pursue Raj and eventually, they engage in a romantic relationship when Babloo is absent. The affair between Raj and Lipakshi becomes passionate, and they even plan to elope after a night of intimacy. The very same night, Babloo receives pictures of Lipakshi with Gopal, his trusted aide. He calls for Raj, who is about to leave, and reveals that he has fallen in love with him and would want to be with him forever. He shows the pictures to Raj. Raj, a little taken aback, tells him to handle Gopal while he goes for Lipakshi. Raj gets on a bus, and we see Lipakshi leaving with her bags. While beating up Gopal, Babloo sees a video of Raj kissing Lipakshi and is stunned. In the same video, Raj reveals that Gopal is innocent, and it was him who was Lipakshi's lover all along. He reveals that ever since Babloo broke his father's leg for crashing a car into a planter, all Raj wanted was revenge. So he stole a lump sum of 10 crores from Babloo while he worked for him and left the country along with his parents. After the reveal, Lipakshi is waiting at the railway station for Raj, who never arrives. Instead, Babloo finds her. She reveals she's pregnant, and they both hold hands, crying and bonding over their love for and betrayal by the same person.
