At the end of the stipulated time, Dino has learnt his lessons in the way of honesty and big business. Nauheed is a top Bollywood actress who learns that sleeping her way to the top means only disaster. Sameer is a chutbhaiyya neta who learns that morality may after all be a good thing. Anjori is a tycoon8217;s second wife who learns that money is not everything.
