Description: Simran, played by Kangana Ranaut, copes with her sorrow by drowning herself in alcohol. In Seoul, her only companion is Aakash, portrayed by Emraan Hashmi, a singer at an Indian restaurant. Simran, who once worked as a bar dancer in Mumbai, is the girlfriend of a notorious gangster named Daya, played by Shiney Ahuja. Five years earlier, Daya’s boss, Khan, ordered him to leave Simran. When Khan threatened her, Daya turned against him, leading to his expulsion from the gang.
Daya and Simran were forced to flee to Seoul, bringing along a boy named Bittu. After an encounter with the Mumbai police, Bittu was killed, creating tension in the couple’s relationship and pushing Simran into alcoholism. Leaving her alone in Seoul, Daya went to work in Mauritius and later Dubai.
Aakash confesses his feelings for Simran despite her past, and their friendship blossoms into love. Meanwhile, Daya unexpectedly returns to Seoul. Discovering Simran’s affair with Aakash, he violently confronts and beats Aakash in a fit of jealousy. Daya declares his love for Simran, promising to change and fulfill her dreams of a normal life. He even offers to let her go if she truly loves Aakash. Before Simran can respond, the police arrive, forcing Daya and Simran to flee.
Daya abandons his criminal lifestyle, taking up honest work and finding peace. He expresses his desire to return to his village in India with Simran to lead a peaceful life. However, this would require one last crime: obtaining fake passports for both of them.
Simran, longing for Aakash, soon discovers she is pregnant with his child. When she informs Aakash, he proposes marriage but warns that they will never find peace as long as Daya remains free. He urges Simran to turn Daya in for the sake of their unborn child. Torn between her emotions and the consequences of her decisions, Simran faces a difficult choice.
*Gangster: A Love Story* explores themes of love, betrayal, and redemption amidst a backdrop of crime and personal struggle.
