Gafla  (DVD Hindi)

An adventure that starts with ambitious intentions... and gets caught up in a crime-web.

Gefla begins as a story about an ordinary young man, Subodh, in ordinary circumstances. Subodh starts out like any middle-class guy, with limited opportunities to survive and go ahead. Perhaps he has a little bit more drive than the others, more energy and bigger dreams. But then, he is just a smart guy.

Gafla follows Subodlis journey into the stock markets and beyond through the eyes of different people in his personal and professional life. His sweetheart from the neighbourhood - Vidya, who remains outside his professional world, clutching to some old-fashioned views of morality, whom he loves but cannot fit into his life. His colleague - Hari, of early days of his career who helps him learn but whom Subodh leaves far behind in his danling rise. His rival - Karmendra Thakur, and other established brokers who were born into the stock market, whom he casually pushes aside to reach his goals and who fuels his ambition by their resistance. His benefactors - Rasiklal Bhejani & Jugaad Singh, who are impressed by his brilliance and encourage him to cross the line between the ethical and logical. His followers - Jayant the Banana Seller, and other ordinary people who turn into investors, charmed by the dreams he sells. His wife - Maya, a foreign returned finance expert, full of efficiency and no feelings, whose cynical view separates matters as profitable or not never mind right or wrong. His disciple - Aakash, who admires his guts and 'vision' and follows him through. The film examines the issues of ethics and morality in this Machiavellian world defined by winners and losers rather than good & bad. Gana deals with these issues through the character of a woman, Vidya, who tries to understand what happened for the sake of her lost love.
