Bachna Ae Haseeno (English: Watch Out, Ladies) is an Indian romantic drama released 15 August 2008. The lead stars in this movie are Ranbir Kapoor, Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone, and Minissha Lamba. Its director was Siddharth Anand, whose previous projects include Salaam Namaste (2005) and Ta Ra Rum Pum (2007). It was the eighth highest grossing movie of 2008.
The story narrates the journey of a young playboy named Raj Sharma (Ranbir Kapoor), who meets three young women at different stages in his life: Mahi (Minissha Lamba), a small-town girl from Punjab; Radhika (Bipasha Basu), an aspiring model in Mumbai; and Gayatri (Deepika Padukone), a non-resident Indian student in Australia. It is the story of a ladies' man who runs from one conquest to another only to crash into true love.
In 1996, Raj runs into Mahi on the Eurorail during a trip to Switzerland. Mahi is a sweet, dreamy girl who believes in true love and is sure she will someday meet her "Raj" (the protagonist from the film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, as played by Shah Rukh Khan). When Mahi misses her train, Raj, a passenger on the same train, gets off to help her out. He offers to help her reach the airport through a different route in time for her return flight. On the way, Mahi develops a crush on Raj and they share a kiss after Raj reads her a poem he wrote about her. At the airport, Mahi meets her friends and tells them about Raj. When she opens the paper on which Raj had written the poem, she finds it blank. She overhears Raj boasting to his friends about the "stuff" the pair did, and is shocked and heartbroken. Raj realises she has overheard and shamefacedly leaves the airport.
