Aap Kaa Surroor (transl. Your Joy) is a 2007 Indian Hindi-language romantic thriller film directed by Prashant Chadha and starring singer Himesh Reshammiya in his debut as an actor, alongside Hansika Motwani and Malika Sherawat. Reshammiya has claimed the story is based on his own life and was named after his music album Aap Kaa Surroor.[1] It was shot mostly in Germany[2] and was released on 29 June 2007. Critics panned the film although it turned out to be a commercial success.[3]
Synopsis[edit]
The movie begins with a dead body of a TV journalist, Nadia Merchant, being found in a remote area, somewhere in Germany. Soon after, a famous Indian singer HR (Himesh Reshammiya) is arrested by the German police after a concert on the charge of murdering the journalist. HR is put behind bars and the incidents begin to unravel as the movie goes into a flashback. While on a concert in Germany, performing with his best friend Shravan (Shravan), HR meets the event organizer Khurana (Darshan Jariwala) and his partner Ruby James (Mallika Sherawat). He also meets the event planner Riya (Hansika Motwani), and falls in love at first sight. After initial reservations, Riya's father Mr. Bakshi (Sachin Khedekar) approves of the match.
Things take a turn when HR is arrested. He asks Ruby, a lawyer, to bail him out. But it is revealed that Ruby is in love with HR, while HR loves Ria. He escapes from his prison cell after taking the murdered TV journalist's father Feroz Merchant (Raj Babbar) captive. He has to find the actual murderer in one day or else Riya will be married to someone else. To stop this from happening, he needs Riya's help. He approaches her for help, but Riya ignores him.
HR, Shravan, and Bani (Gurbani Judge) approach Ruby (on HR's hunch that Ruby is innocent of the murders) for help. They browse through all the invoices and other documents in Khurana's office to find that severe losses on a previously finalized world tour deal gave Khurana the motive to frame HR. HR then proceeds to confront Khurana and, after a car chase, he catches up with Khurana, who then confesses to having murdered Nadia and framing HR to ruin his career. After his confession is instantly caught on camera, Khurana is arrested, and HR and Riya reunite.
