2018 Indian film

Bhaiaji Superhit (transl. Brother, superhit!; Hindi pronunciation: [bʱɛːjaːdʒiː]) is a 2018 Indian Hindi-language action comedy film directed by Neerraj Pathak and produced by Chirag Mahendra Dhariwal and Fauzia Arshi. The film features an ensemble cast including Sunny Deol, Preity Zinta, Ameesha Patel, Arshad Warsi, Shreyas Talpade and Pankaj Tripathi. This film marked Zinta’s comeback to films after a 5-year hiatus.

Plot

The story of a powerful but emotional don from Varanasi, Lal Bhaisahab Dubey, also known as ‘Bhaiaji’ or ‘3D’. Bhaiaji is a feared and respected crime lord in Varanasi, but his one weakness is his love for his wife, Sapna Dubey, the daughter of another crime boss. Sapna loves him a lot but is a feisty and suspicious woman. She leaves Bhaiaji in a fit of jealousy telling him that she will return only when he mends his ways. Her departure shatters him, and he becomes a crying, emotional wreck, which negatively impacts his professional life as a don.

Desperate to win his wife back, Bhaiaji comes up with a wild idea: he decides to produce and star in a movie based on their love story. He believes that if Sapna sees their life portrayed on the big screen, she will realize her mistake and return to him.

To achieve his goal, Bhaiaji kidnaps a shrewd and successful Bollywood director, Goldie Kapoor, along with a struggling writer named Tarun “Porno” Ghosh. He forces them to make the film titled Bhaiaji Superhit. A hot Bollywood superstar, Mallika Kapoor is also brought in to play the lead actress.

The making of the film becomes a chaotic affair. The movie’s plot is meant to be a dramatized version of Bhaiaji’s life and his love for Sapna, but it’s constantly disrupted by his rival, another don named Helicopter Mishra, who is vying for control of the city.

The situation gets even more complicated when a doppelgänger of Bhaiaji, a struggling actor named Funny Singh, is brought into the film to act as the hero. This creates a series of mix-ups and identity crises, as no one can tell the real Bhaiaji from his reel-life counterpart.

Sapna, upon hearing about the film and the beautiful actress Mallika’s involvement, becomes even more jealous and furious, and arrives on set, ready for a showdown. Meanwhile, Funny and Mallika fall in love, adding to the confusion.

The climax involves Bhaiaji having to prove his loyalty to Sapna and showing her that the film was only ever about their love. Ultimately, Bhaiaji is able to win back Sapna’s love and loyalty, proving that despite his life of crime, he is dedicated to her above all else. On another happy note, Funny and Mallika also get united.
