Elaan

Elaan Released: 2005 Character: Abhimanyu Mithun Chakraborty plays Baba Sikander, the villain of the piece, a gangster who peddles in drugs, murder, kidnapping and extortion. He lives in Europe and is on the most wanted list of the Indian police. He attempts to extort money from Kantilal Shah, a rich businessman based in India. At the behest of his adopted son Karan (Rahul Khanna), Shah refuses to yield to his demands. Baba unleashes his wrath and pumps bullets into the unsuspecting Kantilal. Karan, overcome by remorse, has a new 'elaan' -- to put an end to Baba's reign of terror by capturing the untouchable Baba Sikander and extraditing him to India, alive. But he can't accomplish the mission alone. So, he teams up with Arjun (Arjun Rampal), an ex-cop, and Arjun ropes in Abhimanyu (John Abraham), an ex-crony of Baba who now languishes in jail. Predictably, he now has a score to settle. Karan crosses paths with Priya (Amisha Patel), a reporter on the prowl for more grist for the mill. She plots and schemes to get Karan to tell his story, but ends up falling in love with him. She joins the squad along with Sonia (Lara Dutta), Abhimanyu's dancer girlfriend. Together, this quintet set out to capture the untouchable Baba.
