Kaliyug

 Arms, Narcotic and human trafficking is the three largest money making industry we need to fight against. Women end up being victims. 



Released on 9th December 2005, the film was initially titled 'Blue Film' however the title was later changed to 'Kali Yuga', written and directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Mukesh Bhatt. It introduces actor Kunal Khemu, in his debut film as an adult actor. It also stars Emraan Hashmi, Smilie Suri, Deepal Shaw, Amrita Singh and Ashutosh Rana.

Pushkaran and his son, Kunal, were forced to leave Kashmir by terrorists 18 years ago,. They re-locate to Mumbai, where Kunal grows up. Kunal's father later dies in a train accident and relatives from Jammu contact Kunal after the funeral, informing him that his father had promised to look after a young woman named Renuka. He agrees to fulfill his father's promise.

When Renuka arrives, she and Kunal fall in love and get married. They spend their honeymoon at a hotel, where they encounter Johnny, a womaniser. The newlyweds consummate their marriage and enjoy their honeymoon until a few nights later, when police storm in and arrest them. It is revealed that their intimate night was secretly recorded and uploaded onto a porn website. Kunal realizes that Johnny is responsible.

Renuka is forced by police to sign papers and testify against her husband. Kunal tells her the truth and begs her not to sign the papers. The feelings of guilt, embarrassment, and confusion prove too much for Renuka, who jumps off the ledge and dies by suicide in front of Kunal. He is sent to prison since he refuses to admit to the false charge.

Eventually, he is able to prove himself innocent. Now free, he tracks down Johnny and discovers he is working for Simi Roy, a businesswoman who is secretly the porn website creator; she lives in Zürich, Switzerland. Kunal leaves for Zürich to take revenge against Johnny and Simi.

In Zürich, he meets Ali, a modern-day emo who runs an adult shop. In Ali's shop, he sees a magazine featuring an adult actress he'd seen on the website where his and Renuka's video was featured. Kunal and Ali track the girl down in a bar, where she works as a prostitute. When Kunal finds a woman being held hostage there, he beats up the bodyguards but gets hit by Simi Roy. The next day, he overhears Simi arguing with her abusive daughter, Tanya, about her sexual activities with her girlfriend. He asks Simi about the porn website but she lies to him.

Kunal and Ali lure Johnny and his goons into a trap. During the fight, Ali is fatally stabbed by Johnny. Before dying, he manages to kill Johnny and his men, and reveals that Simi is indeed the mastermind; she also controls the red light district in Zürich.

Kunal asks Tanya for help; in return, he will help her ruin Simi's reputation. Simi is devastated when she sees her own daughter on her porn website and it gets all over the news. In the ensuing confrontation, Tanya kills Simi before Simi can kill Kunal. Everyone involved with Simi is arrested. His revenge complete, Kunal starts a new life with the hostage he had saved, Annie.

Simi's words - what you see from outside, may not always be true. Things and people would be different from inside - was/is so right.
