Summary

Gaurav "G.G" Gupta (Ajay Devgan), an industrialist from Mumbai, wants to built a new city. The land for his project is owned by Guru Srinath Vardhan (Javed Sheikh), a former industrialist, who retired and now leads a quiet, spiritual life in his ashram. G.G., however, needs this piece of land, for his project called "Golden Gate", otherwise, he'll become bankrupt. Srinath Vardhan, however, has a son, Jaidev "Jai" Vardhan (Shahid Kapoor) who travels to Mumbai - and meets there Natasha (Bipasha Basu), G.G.'s girlfriend. G.G. and Natasha seduce Jai with all the luxuries of Mumbai - and despite warnings from Jai's childhood friend Madhavi (Amrita Rao), Jai becomes careless and G.G. recognizes his chance to get his piece of land with Jai's help. Almost too late, Jai realizes what he has done - he not only pushed away his father, but also Madhavi and is in the process to betray his father's dream. He swears to undo his errors and creates lots of publicity: that an industrialist is about to destroy a holy ashram only for the sake of greed and profit and G.G. in the end, has to give up his project and the ashram is saved.
